In my old-fashioned mind, "low-level" means "closer to machine code" while "high-level" means "farther from".
So, Java is far from being close to machine code while C is little more that machine code with macros, just in a portable way.
C++ is a little bit farther because of run-time support needed for classes (and other OO fancy stuff), yet still quite close to machine code.
Java is as close to machine code as a fish from the moon.
The "capabilities" is something that needs definition. Someone intends "expressivity power", someone else (like me) means "ability to do things".
Under the latter meaning, there's nothing Java does that cannot be done in C. The other way around seems to be not true.
FYI.
You won't have the same IP 100% of the time.
You won't have an IP at all. You are behind a GGSN that understands sessions through NATed interfaces.
And even with IPv6 they won't give you a permanent IP, even if that could suffice.
If you need to choose between alarms and protection, then protection goes first.
Then if you want, make the proper investigation and go the legal way: persistent port scanning is a ostile action, indeed.
How many users do you have on your servers?
well, my desktop PC (also running 14.04) takes about 15 seconds off its SSDs, 6 of which spent by the BIOS. But it's not definitely a server.
And which hardware are you using? Mine takes 5+ minutes just for hardware initialization. Thanks to Zarquon I am not running virtual fluff as the reboot would downtime all virtual machines.
I run an OCS on my ones and a reboot is to be planned with a couple of months in advance with a test on a clone system.
A reboot is not a bad thing, especially if it's needed for security patches.
But within next April we'll get the new LTS. Instead of planning a reboot we are working on a transition.
Bottom line: that patch came too late in my opinion.
They patched a 2+ years old kernel. This is good and due (as they claim it's LTS).
But who will update? A kernel patch requires a reboot.
I think that those who still run 14.04 are running servers.
And I hardly think a lot will update and reboot.

The fact is that on mobile phones and tablets, Firefox is not displaying any "green on green" link.
The other fact is that a link, which comes at a very competitive price nowadays, could have been added within the article.
Well, the string spelling the link IS inside the article, only it's not marked up as a link.

Open a terminal in your Linux box and type "emacs" followed by the ENTER key. Can you see the difference?
IIRC Ubuntu does not come with vim, but nano as a text editor for terminals (gedit for graphical). Which is fine.
Open a terminal and type "vi" followed by ENTER key.
What can you see now?
Sure I stopped: I had to vomit first, then clean the screen.
... and lower level code interpretation and JIT compiler.

Since when Java can be considered a low-level programming language? Even C++ can be questioned as such!
You have a choice between vi, vim and neovim. It's up to you. :wq!
You insensitive text mode clods!

P.S. That doesn't mean "for your information".
You still need some id over the mobile network. Ad of 4G it is an MSISDN.
Not less than that. Ubuntu is great. But didn't reach the 200M users target. Period.

Very smart and revolutionary. Just like writing that ridiculous blog!
We have been doing this in Itay since the 80's, even though not always for pollution problems. Even and odd plate numbers.

No. There isn't any. Why asking?
That's it!
Could you do that somewhere else?
