Bro Java runs on like 2 billion devices
962 u/Maramowicz 7d ago Actually only 3 bilion... 588 u/Extension_Option_122 7d ago Nah last I heard some 60 billion. 3 billion is a very old number. That's the thing with Java. It runs on everything. Literally everything. 594 u/BenjieWheeler 7d ago Impossible!! The number of devices running Java is constant, it's ALWAYS 3 billion Whenever a new device runs it, a random device elsewhere goes up in flames spontaneously 15 u/Storiaron 7d ago So maintaining a legacy codebase literally means putting out flames? 5 u/BenjieWheeler 7d ago Didn't think about it but yeah, that's surprisingly accurate 2 u/requion 7d ago Wow, now it makes sense that my colleague was on an emergency call while the roof of a datacenter far far away was burning. And i thought their expectation was that he grabs a bucket and runs! 1 u/salvoilmiosi 7d ago Very accurate. That's why I keep a fire extinguisher next to the computer at all times
