Leading our day, Mark Reinhold gives us a long overview of the state of the module system in Java 9. MIT News reports on a new system that loads pages 34 percent faster. It will be interesting to see how this gets implemented in the real world, but they are promising results. UC San Diego News gives us some interesting information about stem cells regenerating a lens after cataract surgery. This just sounds very cool and I hope this translates into true success in the cases that need it.

As always, enjoy today’s items, and please participate in the discussions on these sites.
