First I find out that it can be fatal to inhale water, and now this??? I can't believe the government lets there just be all this water everywhere!

I think we shall be grateful for the water. That's where we learn to swim. If we didn't have any place to learn to swim, I am sure lots of people would have drowned.

In what sounds like a strange act of divination, the current crew of the International Space Station just used a tea bag to identity a pesky leak that’s been allowing air to escape from the station. Because a little tea solves everything, doesn't it?

As far as development environment goes I would say that Java tops the list. True that you could use other IDEs than Eclipse/JetBrains, but few do, and these IDEs eat a lot clock cycles.

So true! Eclipse is a memory, cpu and energy hog!
Eclipse!!! Ugh! I was always a Visual Studio developer in the past.
So when Eclipse arose and I did some work on Java I was completely turned off.
It's such an unwieldy beast. When Android dev first started it was via Eclipse and it was ridiculously difficult just to transfer an Android project from one computer to another to work on. The Eclipse Project format was so confusing and invariably you would be missing something.
So glad Android switched the JetBrains (Android Studio).
I've been working on an Java app for work and it was done in Eclipse.
The first thing I did was retool so that I can :
1) build from command line
2) Use Visual Studio Code as the editor (and debugger with plugins).
It's so much lighter than the Eclipse beast.

I rejected Eclipse years ago because I couldn't afford a PC powerful enough to support it.
But then: This morning, the puddles had 5-10 mm ice sheaths. (The paved roads had 0.1 mm invisible ice sheaths, making them sort of like a skating rink...). The PC offloads other electric heaters in my living room 
Sure, a heat pump will give you a lot more heat per kWh of electricity than a plain electric heater does. But as long as you use conventional electrical heaters: At this time of the year, you might as well use your PC as one.

I *really* didn't want to post this, but Bob overruled me. Apologies for political-ish news in your daily, but it is pretty significant for our industry.

Without access to data, it's hard to make tools that actually work. Enter synthetic data: artificial information developers and engineers can use as a stand-in for real data. Prove yourself brave, truthful, and unselfish, and someday, you will be real data.

Then the ones programming the apps that generate the data have a very, very dark future... haven't they?
