Java

And that's the findings from a bunch of researches at Aalto University, City University of Hong Kong.

And if you take a deeper dive into this long report, the team analyzed 14,320 Java unit tests generated by four models using four prompting strategies.

Nearly 20% of the tests didn't run successfully.

Some of those failed because the assertions themselves were wrong, yet the tests still counted towards code coverage.

And to learn more about it, she linked to a web.dev post by Anna Sullivan.

And this explains how they've published experimental versions of LCP, IMP, and CLS in the Chrome User Experience Report that includes soft navigations.

Soft navigation is when JavaScript swaps the page context and updates the URL without a full reload.

And until now, Crux only recorded on single page apps first page load.

Or it could

be Java.

Or it could be... you know, some FTP technology, or it could be windows operating system, or it could be windows server 2008 or two.

You know what I mean? Like, like it's the it's PHP today, but with AI's ability to find vulnerabilities and a, and, and just the sheer vault back catalog of 20 years of software, this is going to, this is going to happen.

Don't want to go too deep into detail about that.

But it's, even if you take a language like Java or Java or however you want to pronounce it, the difference between what you do get from these frontier labs and what you can run on your own hardware is tremendous.

I mean, I know most people would now argue, well, you need to use libraries, you need to give it enough context and stuff.

And well, Even then, it's crazy.

So that was like very hardcore activity.

When we had compilers, what happened is that people could start writing high-level programming languages like C, C++, Java, whatever, and then there was a compiler that translated that code into machine code for the architecture that you were developing, so Intel or RISC or whatever.

Now, compilers made assembly skills rare, and software got better.

Sure.

The way that comes in, obviously, if we're blocking a user profile's ability to install stuff, good, that mitigates the threat.

But if we don't, the next activity that malware takes is it uses the Windows default application registry for a Java file to open it with Notepad.

That activity is then what spawns other stuff.

And so understanding, so we're getting, where I'm going with this is understanding the particulars of a given threat and how it impacts your environment will drive both administrative and technical policy.

So administratively, we need to block people from being able to install stuff.

Technically, we need to change the way Windows and Mac machines open Java files.

So just as an example, I wanted to bring that up.

There's typically not one answer to a given threat.

Why does this so remind me of the maintenance fees on a timeshare?

And then you think about the lessons learned in Oracle Java.

Oracle purchased

Sun.

And for a decade sat and did nothing with it.

And then one day they announced to the world, you must pay for the commercial use of Java.

And anybody that's got Oracle Java knows they're knocking at your door, right, for that employee metric.

If one person needs it, you've got to pay for every employee.

With your small team, what kind of tools have you picked up or used to help automate a lot of what you're working on?

Well, besides the obvious stuff like XXCult and Swift and so on for the modern development, and unfortunately Eclipse still for the Java development, Many of the tools we wrote ourselves, for instance, our build system is completely custom built.

It's based in Git, but we started using the time when the submodules were crap.

So we decided, okay.

Okay.

Let's talk about Swift.

So you mentioned Java and web objects, but you also have some server-side Swift stuff as well as client-side Swift stuff.

Yes.

What we're really excited to be rolling out, we're calling the WeCo system because we're like, bring whatever you got.

To me, the depth comes from what the manufacturers will allow to be pinged, you know, because we're kind of setting something up that's going to allow, however you're talking, Java, webhooks, whatever, we'll be able to bring all that in.

And as Victoria said, I mean, The stuff that I've seen with AI in the past two or three months that people are able to do has been blowing my mind in terms of aggregating.

These systems that people would build out for years and years, and now I've got friends that can turn something on like that in an afternoon.

Yeah.

So, Brian, if I think back, we've been talking about this for so long and especially I think even our first ever episode of Pure Performance we talked about you know, performance in .NET and Java applications and how we analyze performance hotspots.

I think it's a thousandth time now that we are mentioning the N plus one query problem or the pattern.

I tried to mention it in the
