Using AI in your work highlights its ability to assist with many tasks, but it remains far from replacing your role as a programmer. I enjoy using it because, honestly, at least 80% of a developer's job involves repetitive, alienating tasks suited for machines. #AI #Programming

Java Tip 💡: To improve your application's responsiveness, avoid initializing heavy objects that may never be used.
Consider Lazy-loading them at the appropriate time to rationalize memory usage and improve response time.

Java Tip 💡: Try to avoid static variables unless they store truly global values.
• They hinder testing by making it harder to isolate classes due to shared state.
• They reduce code reusability.

These ultra-translucent interfaces rarely work well as a system, because the transparency introduces way more problems than it solves. It’s form over function.
I’d bet that a lot of this liquid glass stuff will end up more like semi-opaque-frosted-glass in the end. But it looks cool as a demo!
