Trump promised the MAGA base no new wars. Then he went to war with Iran President Trump promised his "Make America Great Again" voters an "America First" foreign policy. With the war in Iran, he's testing MAGA world's willingness to be flexible on one of its core beliefs.

Explaining the Eclipse prefix in Eclipse Collections Eclipse Collections is a standalone open source collections library for Java

For folks who haven't looked at #EclipseCollections because they don't use the Eclipse IDE. Eclipse Collections (EC) and the Eclipse IDE are both independent projects at the Eclipse Foundation. 💡

Note: I created EC and have coded with IntelliJ for 24 years. 🙏
