I wish I could nuke GraalVM from the earth. It ruined my life for 2 years and I will never forgive it. It's a very stupid idea, pushed by CTOs that think Java's "write once, run everywhere" is still relevant. It literally runs every language slower and introduces all kinds of build pains.

Ugh, I can't believe I had to read your comment this morning. smh


I was stumped the first time I read about Graal. It felt like 15 years too late and made zero sense to me.

Please, if you could share more about that, I'd be happy to share the pain
