Good morning. This is Guru's Tech Bytes, Ep. 009, for Sunday, April the 12th, 2026. First up, a new interview with Pat Gelsinger is making the rounds, with the former Intel CEO sharing his thoughts on the semiconductor landscape in 2026. With fifty upvotes and counting, the piece from More Than Moore digs into where the chip industry is heading. One can't help but wonder how Intel's old guard feels about the current state of play, especially with the AI chip race heating up around them. Second, the Miller Principle, a 2007 essay from developer Alex Miller, is enjoying a well-deserved revival. With thirty-nine upvotes and thirty-one comments sparking lively debate, this classic piece on software design principles is proving that good engineering wisdom doesn't come with an expiry date. Sometimes the best ideas are the ones we keep rediscovering. And finally, if you've ever stared at a wall of JVM flags wondering what half of them actually do, the JVM Options Explorer is here to save your sanity. This browser-based tool lets you search and compare configuration options across different JVM versions. Proper tooling for anyone who'd rather not guess their way through garbage collection tuning. That's your daily byte. Have a great day. Until next time.
