Bank holiday today. Over the past weeks, I worked on Strange, my quantum computer simulator in Java (github.com/redfx-quantu...) and I hope to push major performance improvements this week.

All folks who speak at conferences should read this and think long and hard about whether they want to risk speak in the US in the future.

Also anyone who works while traveling.
comicon.com/2025/03/18/f...

First of all, they all confirmed what I thought.
The majority of comics creators travel to the
USA on an ESTA — "The short is that almost everyone just goes in on a ESTA. "That's the electronic tourist visa, easy to apply for, valid for two years. Things are slightly different for Canada, they have their own version of an ESTA, and anecdotal reports say that some Canadian shows implicitly include visa requirements in the guest information.
But when you're going in on a tourist visa like the ESTA, the Immigration and Border Control can and will interrogate you about what you're visiting for. And if they have even the slightest idea that you're working whilst you're there, they can and will deny you entry and/or detain
you.
The problem now is that all those previously accepted and overlooked things that can be classed as 'working', such as Becky's chores for board or a hotel room for a comics convention
in return for your appearance, could well see you denied and/or detained.

A small, boring screenshot, but imho an important step. I cross compiled the latest openjdk/jdk with javafx base/graphics/controls mods on Linux x86-64 to Linux aarch64 and ran it on a raspberry pi. #java #javafx
