I couldn't make this work with JDK 23, 21 or 17, I got the following error:

Failed to execute goal org.teavm:teavm-maven-plugin:0.6.1:compile (web-client) on project flavour: Unexpected error occurred: Unsupported class file major version 61

According to the Docs it seems it seems to only work with JDK 8: (https://frequal.com/Flavour/book.html#org1b5c5fc):

17.1 Prerequisties Making web apps with Flavour only requires two prerequisites:

Java (OpenJDK 8 or equivalent. Newer versions of Java are untested.) Maven (Apache Maven 3.8.6 or greater)

A good debugger can provide more than just stepping thru code.

In IntelliJ with Java, you can set conditonal breakpoints with complex evaluations, you can set filters (only hit a breakpoint depending from where it is being called), use exception methods that only hit on certain exceptions instead of a specific line code, you can also use logging breakpoints, that act like printf debuging, but you don't need to scatter your code with print statements all over the place.

You can group, add descripitons, disable, enable and add temporary breakpoints, they are pretty powerful! I just wish intellij had a time travel debbuger like Visual Studio Pro.

I prefer to use Windows as my daily driver. I also help people (friends, family, co-workers, etc.) with Linux (desktop or server) all the time. I have almost 30 years of experience using Linux. (using it since 1995)

Raises hand Here! I have to work with Spock on a Java codebase and I think groovy sucks ;-)

I've seen them pop up (hehe) while searching for multi-tools and bushcraft videos. Never seen one before.

I live in Monterrey, Mexico, 3 to 4 hours from the US border with Texas. There are people who offer Whataburger delivery services.

They will collect orders throughout the week and on the weekend drive to Texas and pick up the burgers. I think they have a deal with a local whataburger because they pick the burgers disassembled.

The heat and reassemble them here in Monterrey. No fries, though.

They sell for 3x, I believe.

Just a brief reminder: If you need to zip/unzip files from the command line on Windows, you can use BSD tar.

I needed to write a script that zips a directory from the command line, and found out that Windows 10/11 and at least Server 2019 includes BSD tar by default! You can use it like this:

'C:\Temp>tar acvf backup.zip directory'

So, no need to install any third-party zip/unzip CLI tool.

OS/2 Warp did something similar to what you describe, but with FTP sites: You could navigate them using the file manager, just like any other folder, create links, bookmarks, etc.

I vaguely remember saving web bookmarks as files, and using the built-in browser to navigate them to them. The shell (WPS) had the philosophy: "everything is an object".

It was very cool for its time.

I do not agree with your opinion on Elon Musk, but I admire how calm, rational and polite your response to this situation is. Most people (including me) would let our emotions take over. You, sir, are a class act.
