If you want the most spiffing performance from your java Java™ programmes, then you must think about the rubbish collector’s behaviour 🇬🇧
screenshot: I’ve written a Java comment saying “… avoid creating more heap garbage when unpacking …”, and IntelliJ complains about the word garbage, saying “British English uses ‘rubbish’”

@Ninji As much as I agree that British English is the more correct version of English, this is exactly the sort of shit why you should never set your system locale settings to en-UK instead of en-US

@SuperDicq @Ninji tbh default practice should have matured to innovating an en-INT locale already (and various xx-INT)
the wave of AI enabled autotranslate efforts are making me hate localized software despite most of it being a long labor of love historically

@mer @SuperDicq @Ninji when using glibc, international english would be en_DK if that's what you are looking for sylveon_uwu

despite being called a denmark locale, it is essentially meant to be international english locale, with iso 8601 date format, metric units, and so on
