Here's what I don't get.

You got coffee at a bistro. "The coffee is hot" - nonsense "The coffee was hot" - makes sense

You SAW a woman at the beach. "That woman is beautiful" - sense? "That woman was beautiful" - potential insult?

I'm uh, working on a cryptocurrency, right now it's running in a lot of lawnmowers. It's the future of humanity. No, I don't have any other shoes.

I think it should simply be two parts: 1). A list of what steps were taken 2). What conclusions can be drawn from it

Instead we get something that combines both so it is hard to tell where researchers beliefs come into play.

I'm sorry, did you claim poor tuning?

I think the problem is because of the virtual machine, instead of being compiled to an executable. I mean GraalVM is great - but why did it take so long to develop? I mean Sun could still be alive if developers and users had instant startup times, could have easily deployed Java to servers and clients, and that it was not only faster but used way less memory.

Are you talking about about both Burroughs B5000 and Lisp Machines having a tagged architecture[0]?
