  • I entered the world of Java a few years ago, there were already memes about eclipse back then, so I was prepared to prefer Intellij.

    I tried both. Intellij is much more polished, it had some annoying bugs too, but the selling point for me was that eclipse was (is) really good at syncing every change directly to wildfly. This is a huge timesaver. The maven to eclipse plugin I think?

    I’ve tried with jrebel but it’s not as quick and reliable as with eclipse.

    I am fully prepared for a solution where Intellij is better so please let me know, but no one in our organisation (which has about 50 devs) has found it.














  • For my closed headphones, which are most critical for me: something I can save up for.

    For the living room: amp + speakers should be affordable. My living room is not audiophile proof and will never be so getting the best gear is just lost money.

    In-ears: i take these everywhere for calls or some music in transport. So they should be kinda dispensible, so if an audiophile tells me “this is good value for a low price” I’ll take it.

    I did not include numbers on purpose, right now I have a good income so €50 is “cheap” but in other times in my life that would have been a big purchase that I would rather spend on things like food or a warm coat :-)

    It is a luxury thing after all.
