Follow-up: Running the same Spring Boot app on a 256 MB VPS with JDK 25
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1w0u6rw/followup_running_the_same_spring_boot_app_on_a/

<!-- SC_OFF -->Follow-up to my 512 MB Spring Boot experiment: I tried the same application on a 256 MB Alpine VPS. JDK 21 struggled badly at this size, but with JDK 25 and a tuned 80 MB heap, the app plus lightweight monitoring completed a one-hour run without restarts or OOM kills. Still not something I’d recommend for normal production, but the difference was interesting. <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/fykup (https://www.reddit.com/user/fykup)

Automating immersive reading
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1w2fc9t/automating_immersive_reading/

<!-- SC_OFF -->I took a week off from work recently to reimplement Storyteller's forced alignment algorithm. Storyteller (https://storyteller-platform.dev/) is an open source, self hosted platform for creating, managing, and reading/listening to "readaloud" books — books that have audiobook narration built in and can highlight each sentence (and/or word, with this new algorithm!) as it's read aloud. Forced alignment is the process of determining where each piece of text starts and ends in the audiobook. Anyway, I am really pleased with how the new algorithm turned out! Hopefully someone else finds it interesting as well. <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/scrollin_thru (https://www.reddit.com/user/scrollin_thru)
