What Hacker News says

I guess you live in a more modern workspace than I do. I just picked an open source project that (A) I know we use at work, and (B) I know is written in Java. I picked a random source file that sounded like it would have some mutable state, and the very first functions below the constructor were a trivial getter and setter around a private ivar. https://github.com/apache/solr/blob/main/solr/core/src/java/... I'm a little surprised it was in literally the first place I looked, but I'm not surprised that it was easy to find. "Use private ivars and write getters and setters to encapsulate your state" was probably the second thing that a generation of CompSci students learned in their first programming class, right after "an object is an instance of a class."

There is no way I can get to running all of these (this project was supposed to be quick!!), but I will run the ones I noted earlier, and probably manticore too since it was high on my list since it's quite polished looking.
