Updated my Tiny Java Containers demo for @graalvm.bsky.social for JDK 23 and compared default (-O2) optimization vs. the new -Os (for size) option and got great results!

Optimizing for size:
💥 ~43% smaller executables
💥 13%-46% smaller container images

I was in a record shop in Soho in London that had the album cover on the wall with an arrow saying "you are here" pointing to the store in the background!

It's been a while since I bought a new release CD. What was the last one you bought?

As far as I can tell mine was Saint Etienne's Surrey EP that I picked up at their Toronto concert--six years ago!
