Maybe when IPv6 is widely available, we’ll stop seeing this… For now, it sucks, but IPv4 blocks are expensive. Price or external IPv4, something’s gotta give.

I haven’t looked into the details of the actual code, but I would expect the compiler optimizations and JIT to figure it all out and end up with very similar native code. Especially since both languages are mature and had enough time to reach such goals. But it’s quite possible my assumptions are incorrect.

Quite a few unexpected results here…

1. I’m surprised the C binary is not the smallest, and it’s outdone by Pascal, of all languages.
2. The speed/energy difference between Java and C# (almost a factor of 2 in favor of Java).
3. The relatively good performance of JavaScript compared to other loosely typed multi-paradigm scripting languages.
4. The difference between C# and F#. That’s actually a good reason to question the accuracy of these tests and results.

Ironically, all the variations you mentioned do not have the gift part, except for the letter ‘n’ :)

They all originate from Johnathan, which in Hebrew means, literally “God gave”, the “Joh” part meaning “God”, and “Nathan” meaning “gave”.

No, it absolutely uses a Linux kernel.

Exactly. The issue is with the source of electricity, not with the AC itself. Not to mention that leading by example is nice, but it’s not always the best course of action. An individual avoiding AC is a drop in the water, and not going to save the planet, while suffering immensely. Hell, even if every single individual stopped using AC at home (which isn’t even close to reality), that wouldn’t have a significant effect, compared to what corporations, factories, etc. are doing.
