Encountered a bizarre issue the other day where the JVM crashed before the program fully started (after a power failure). Looks like the program is running out of memory (most likely heap memory), however the issue might be on the JVM side. Noticed when jps was being run that a pthread error message appeared (something about running out of memory), which was only resolved by terminating the java process before running jps again. What resources are available for memory profiling a JVM application? Is it possible to remotely profile a JVM application via SSH?

We are looking for a project management tool at my company. If I would make the final decision it would be Space obviously 😄 but it looks like we are going to choose Jira. We are a quite small team < 10 developers. Any ideas how to convince my co workers to give space a try? I use Space for my private projects and its great but I don't have the knowledge in project management tools to convince my co workers.

In IntelliJ when I exit presentation mode the font is stuck at the huge size. Does anyone know of a fix for that?

Trying to read about Kotlin with cat getting in the way. 😺

and before someone suggests Lombok, we’re already using it and

@Builder

doesn’t quite work for us in this case

I manually installed. If you us a floating license server it nags about not finding licenses, despite the products having active tokens

But business folks wont like this

About to have more sanity today. Yesterday was getting very bad. Whenever a GUI based JVM application was being used (including IntelliJ) the laptop would emit ticking/scratching sounds. Every few seconds the desktop would lockup for a few seconds which is awful. Things were coming to a head when the VisualVM program would cause ticking sounds about every second when the monitor graphs were being updated on screen which would break my concentration. I couldn't properly concentrate when working on a Kotlin project in IntelliJ, especially when scrolling in the text editor where ticking/scratching sounds would occur often. Have temporarily downgraded the Linux kernel from 5.3.0-46 to 5.0.0-37 which seems to have significantly improved the situation. The ticking/scratching sounds no longer occur, and it appears that the desktop is no longer locking up every few seconds. Intel's QA for their drivers/firmware has been pretty sloppy lately (including the Thunderbolt firmware fiasco - https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/ca/en/solutions/ht508988 ). Suffice to say that Intel's driver/firmware QA isn't up to the usual high standards that Linux users expect.

Hello, I'm trying to name a library project, and I'd like crowd answer to that question: If you were to rename "SDKMAN" to a non androcentric alternative, apart from "SDKWOMAN", which names would you consider? Thanks in advance for any help and your time if it's worth it 😒imple_smile: (Note that I'm not considering renaming "SDKMAN", but I'd like to name a project similarly, where "SDK" is replaced with something else, and "MAN", well, replaced as well with something more inclusive that still sounds right).

Hi! JetBrains is supporting the ongoing #BeKindKotlinChallenge hosted by Globant. This challenge encourages developers to use Kotlin to create altruistic apps. More info can be found here: https://bit.ly/3cB9StM

Hi, can anyone help me with development of a plugin for IDEA? I’m trying to update UI of a tool window and it suddenly disappears. I already spent couple of days and have no idea how to handle it. =(

Does infinite "performing code analysis" happen to anybody else?

Saw a bug with someone using a right-value operation for a number on a new line, expecting it to work like it did in Java. My manager joked that I should make a meme as a report of this bug.

hey there, is anyone interested in doing some “Kotlin Multiplatform beginner live-coding” for GDG Nuremberg, Germany on 26th Mai at 6pm CEST? We’d like to compare Kotlin Multiplatform and Flutter during the early stages of a popular hackathon in Nuremberg and might therefore influence the technology the developers use to start their projects. Any evangelist who’s feeling called here?

anyone got recs for thunderbolt 3 docks?

Are there any upcoming remote Kotlin conferences/meetups?

Got a new personal Macbook Air. Aside from a few obvious things (brew, VS Code, etc) what productivity/dev tools do people recommend installing/purchasing? This’ll mostly be a lightweight dev machine for personal stuff.

Hi, me with my friends have dispute -> what is plural form of “offerId” in simplified case of: (given this offer is like offers on ebay)

class Offer(
   id: Offer.Id
...
)

Database:

fun getOffersIds(): List[Offer.Id]

or

fun getOfferIds(): List[Offer.Id]

Which is more correct in english language?

It doesn't cover the code if it is not in the folder matching the package (in the conventions you can skip common parent packages)

the automatic java->kotlin translator has done the following:

expression.trim().toCharArray()

->

expression.trim { it <= ' ' }.toCharArray()

is there a reason?

how would you call what I called

cartesianProduct

?

listOf(1, 2, 3, 4).cartesianProduct() shouldContainExactlyInAnyOrder listOf(
  listOf(1),
  listOf(2),
  listOf(3),
  listOf(4),
  listOf(1, 2),
  listOf(1, 3),
  listOf(1, 4),
  listOf(2, 3),
  listOf(2, 4),
  listOf(3, 4),
  listOf(1, 2, 3),
  listOf(1, 2, 4),
  listOf(1, 3, 4),
  listOf(2, 3, 4),
  listOf(1, 2, 3, 4)
)

permutations? combinations? I know it is something, but cannot figure out what

100% Off Topic Who's all watching the launch today?

At work there is a discussion going on about which protocol to use for communication between embedded devices, and clients. Below are the protocols (all binary based) that are being looked at (as a replacement for the current protocol that is being used): • MQTT ( http://mqtt.org/ ) • Modbus ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modbus ) • AMQP ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Message_Queuing_Protocol ) Whatever protocol is selected would need to meet the following criteria: • Is a open protocol • Protocol is binary based • Embedded systems (including uCs) can use the protocol • Wide range of libraries available to use the protocol with multiple programming languages (including C and Kotlin), and platforms

By chance, anybody with the new 16" Macbook Pro who can compare build speeds to..something previous? Or best, ryzen desktop?

Hello, I’ve read somewhere (but I cannot recall where) that there are “cheap” reflection methods and “expensive” reflection methods in Kotlin, do anyone know where may I find more information regarding that?
