"Don't write to stdout but to a logger."

Not great advice given the fact that a logger paged pretty much every SDE on this planet.

That's the intention. So people see the messages.

That said, modern Linux OSs send stdout to journald by default. journald should forward to some centralized logging server.

It's an extra dependency. But I guess we will never learn. Just import log4j and pray.
