>> Even today, there's still a noticeable difference between JVM-based software and native software, although the exceptionally massive increase in computation power have rendered the differences easier to overlook in many cases.
Measurable I'd agree with, noticeable no, not really unless you mean startup time; otherwise the JVM is very fast once it's started, that isn't disputable.

on: Some companies in Sweden are testing a six-hour work day

on: Some companies in Sweden are testing a six-hour work day
I've found that working 8 or 9 months during the year then taking 3 or 4 months to look for the next contract or FT job helps me to re-sync and avoid burn-out (at least, I don't think I'm burned out - that's a good sign right!).

I think the death penalty should be abolished, both for adults and for unborn children.
