The fundamental understanding is vague. I bet half of the people don't understand what we're talking about. And 90% of the people don't understand how they think, I guess. Moreover 90% of people 80% of time probably don't really think logically but do routine in a rudimentary thinking mode.

Yes, I see no new interesting projects for years started in Java. I've been working with Java for a long time. At first it outperformed C++ in ease of development. Large enterprises created software of humongous complexity with that but Docker emerged and Java fell out of favour as it's startup slow and it couldn't never fullfill low-latency needs with its GC magic. And eventually, it fell in a trap of any long-living tech - it became complex, with snobbish communities, no easy way to adapt to new realities, though it tries but it fails: failed to integrate itself with browsers, failed with computing graphics, failed with scientific libraries, low-latency servers and now it starts to lose ground in general computing. The only argument in its defense is that it's widespread - well, yes, but it's a miserable argument for a prefessional.
Interstingly, why cloud solutions don't adopt Sql/med standard (ie risingwave, snowflake), they all have their specific sql syntax for that, as well as inroducing addional 'connector' and 'source' terms, not sure if sql/med have that (as i cannot read standard right away as it's not free).
The problem is to become popular enough so scraped data become a sufficient represenation of all users. The app needs to be useful. At this point why ruin your reputation instead you can continue to gain new users.

How fast and accurate is it at dispatching multiple targets , possibly moving , compared to a human sniper .
It's also the best protection for your spine and maybe the only well established way of mitigating back pain.
I've noticed a lot of older people are afraid of weight lifting because they think it will lead to injuries, however the science shows that it's one if the safest forms of exercise. Personally I don't understand how people function without it.
