Just a mild techno-vent...one of the things that really irks me about #Java (especially the more enterprise-y bits) is that when anything goes wrong, you have to dig through a stack trace the length of a Bible to figure out what the hell went wrong. Give me #Python any day.

I'm kind of liking that more and more countries are bringing songs in their own languages. It's neat. #Eurovision2019

Azerbaijan's song is nice enough, but if I'm more focused on "Neat--I wonder how they programmed the robot arms", I submit to you that your staging is possibly detracting from your performance. #Eurovision2019

Belarus is one of those acts that if you held a gun to my head two minutes after it's done, I couldn't hum a single part of the song. #Eurovision2019
