+# [OutOfMemoryError Related JVM Arguments](https://blog.fastthread.io/2019/06/21/outofmemoryerror-related-jvm-arguments/)
+
+JVM options are plenty. This article points some related to the out-of-memory
+problems, like how to restart the process when that happens.
+
+# [From Rust to WebAssembly: building an interactive note-taking webapp with
+Actix & Yew](https://www.luu.io/posts/lenote/)
+
+I'm a sucker for note-taking apps. The fact that this one is built with Rust
+and WebAssembly is just too much for me.
+
+# [Contributing to Rust Open Source](https://joeprevite.com/contributing-to-rust-open-source)
+
+People think contributing to any open source project is complicated and have
+no idea where to start. Although focusing on helping the rust project, the
+post describes the whole process in finding an issue and dealing with it.
+
+# [Brush up your COBOL: Why is a 60 year old language suddenly in demand?](https://stackoverflow.blog/2020/04/20/brush-up-your-cobol-why-is-a-60-year-old-language-suddenly-in-demand/)
+
+While I don't expect people to take their free time and code some application
+in COBOL at this time and age, I think people will find curious the language
+that was in vogue when I started coding.
+
+(Also, I have a presentation about old languages and, to be honest, I couldn't
+really remember how COBOL code looks like, and they have plenty examples in
+the article.)
+
+# [Apple Aims to Sell Macs With Its Own Chips Starting in 2021](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-04-23/apple-aims-to-sell-macs-with-its-own-chips-starting-in-2021)
+
+It may come with no surprise for anyone following Apple news that there was
+something going on with their Mac and their chips.
+
+The greater point here is: Why? It's not that their chips are proving to be
+some powerhouse, but neither are Intel chips. And, as far as we know, the
+relationship between Intel and Apple is not in some bad weather, like it was
+when Samsung produced Apple chips. And that's why the "Why?" remains.
+
+# [Oxidize 1K - March 2020](https://oxidizeconf.com/oxidize-1k/)
+
+Oxidize 1K, a conference about Embedded Rust, happened on March this year. The
+conference was online and now the videos are available for everyone.
