This person posts an identical comment in every single Blender thread to promote his startup. Check their post history.

I am just wondering, is such a consistent plugging allowed on HN? To me it lowers the quality of the discussion and their posts are often voted to the top on all Blender related posts.

Java? Not so much. JVM? Absolutely. The ecosystem, stability and performance is unmatched.

What about the fact that Kotlin collections are fully interoperable with Java collection? That makes the transition significantly easier.

Well it means that the second you need a setter you can't use records so all the boilerplate remains.

I think the article is misleading in the list of advantages over Kotlin's Data Classes.

1. Destructuring - available in Kotlin

2. Copy with change - available in Kotlin

3. Serialization - not sure why Kotlin data class would not be serializable

4. Boilerplate - Kotlin takes care of equals and hashCode

Huge disadvantage that matters to me is that record fields cannot be mutated. It makes the records much less useful.
