They might not have the capacity to do more considering they still need to redact the rest of the epstein files that show their president is a child trafficking pedophile

Seems to be very common nowadays for PE

Is this any different than the SaaS business model, except a 3rd party bought the company to strip it?

Everything SaaS these days, hell every subscription these days seems to involve product enshittification + rising pricing. Is this the end game of the financialization of everything?

Damn, some other group trying to cause trouble for you?

I doubt it. I think it's just cops doing shitty work under pressure and then trying to cover it up.

Automating the upload of a home folder to the darkweb in the middle of an extortion attempt would be pretty weak for a "legendary" hacker.

whoopsie :D

There are always unintended consequences... always.

This is probably where they're getting their "90% of code is written with AI!!) metrics from

Stop the catfishes, please

At the very top of the page it mentions a default which kind of negates that issue...

It doesn’t negate the issue at all, especially as sdkman is an optional extra tool. If working with others, that default is not always going to be the one your team develops against either. If you are just trying to pick a jdk and don’t even know sdkman exists, a sensible person will rightly wonder why the ecosystem has fractured into 17 JDKs, or you won’t notice at all and blindly pick a download from the oracle website. I’ve seen it cause confusion many times for new (and old!) Java developers.

Checking a new developer has actually managed to install the correct JDK for a given project is still a thing I have to do, all the time.

Sdkmans docs also have no bearing on the multiple build systems in the java world too, which again simply a non-issue in DotNet and many others.

A president using his status in government to influence private business deals certainly feels like corruption

I find this hard to believe given the quality of code that AI models currently produce. Does the startup have a successful product? Or does it have a spaghetti ball of technical debt waiting to explode?

I know of a few of these types of services operating in Europe presently
