JDK 5.0: More Flexible, Scalable Locking

An anonymous reader writes "Multithreading and concurrency are nothing new, but one of the innovations of the Java language design was that it was the first mainstream programming language to incorporate a cross-platform threading model and formal memory model directly into the language specification. While this simplifies the development of platform-independent concurrent classes, it by no means makes writing concurrent classes trivial -- just easier."

1 in 3 odds the next story has something to do with Java.

Parent voted for Bush

[tod_miller]

And has a few trollish statements against Democrates. It is fine to defend your stance as a Bush voter, it is your right, but please, listen to the following:

Those who voted Bush gave thier first and only affirmative acceptance and vote of persnal merit to the actions undertaken in Iraq. Prior to this no American had given a personal vote of acceptance to the actions undertaken, if you voted Bush, then you approve of Fallujah, of the troops for oil programs, and the rest.

You voted into power the wealthiest cabinet in the history of all nations. Thier personal assets are shocking.

That is all, sorry, please mod OT, or even insightful for this thread! and don't feed the trolls.
