My philosophy tends to be that your first commit should convey the task you are trying to achieve and additional commits beyond that point should be fixups, to be rebased into the single first commit before merging. This removes the back and forth of changing and reverting the same files, changes from PR comments etc. It's much more coherent.

An alternative to the standard JDK that's supported by Oracle. Generally, the less stuff Oracle controls, the better (not to say Amazon having control is inherently better, but imo, it's better than Oracle)

Glad to see any alternatives to confluence (or Atlassian in general). I've used Confluence for a good 4 years or so and for the life of me, I can not fathom why anyone would use this for storing documentation for code etc, as opposed to storing things direct in a repo. I can understand it's use somewhat for business folks, but even then, the way of organising things is abysmal, every solution (such as rich text editing) feels very off the shelf/MVP, uninspiring UI, the list goes on. It feels like most companies that use it already use the Atlassian stack of JIRA/Bitbucket, then feel the need to tack Confluence onto the end because it's there.
