I don’t think I’ll ever tire of sitting on a back porch on a southern summer evening, listening to the symphony of cicadas, frogs, etc, and watching the fireflies (or lightning bugs if you’re not into the whole brevity thing).

Jackson Release 3.0 Main Portal page for the Jackson project. Contribute to FasterXML/jackson development by creating an account on GitHub.

Jackson 3.0.0-rc4 release (mostly) completed, see github.com/FasterXML/ja...

Testing highly recommended, getting closer to 3.0.0-final and now you have a chance to help make it success!

Planning to blog about what is included later today (SBOM generation f.ex; MethodHandles over classic reflect)

Diagram showing that GraalVM can compile Java to Wasm and run Wasm in the JVM

You may have missed it, but the @graalvm.org team has recently open-sourced a variant of native image called web image, which compiles Java bytecode to WebAssembly bytecode instead of a native executable.

New blog post: The Origin of the Poutsma Principle.
It started as an inside joke at a SpringSource meeting—but the idea stuck: if an API is hard to understand, the design might need work.
#Java #Spring #APIDesign #tech

Probably the most impressive and exciting talk I have seen in years! Congrats to @fniephaus.com and Patrick Ziegler for their #wasmio presentation and work on @graalvm.org starting to compile Java applications to WasmGC. Kudos to @thomaswue.dev too.

Now Rust lib compiled to Wasm embedded in a SpringBoot app... Running the browser

Y'all, java compiling to Wasm with GraalVM 🤯

UK Regulator's Final Verdict: Apple’s Browser Engine Ban Harms Competition - Open Web Advocacy

1/10 🚨 The 🇬🇧UK regulator’s final report is out and it’s clear: Apple’s browser engine ban harms competition.

Infrastructure as Pain

So is “Die Hard: With A Vengeance” adjacent enough to still be a Christmas Movie? I’m voting “yes” (and queuing it up right now). It’s by
far (IMO) the best overall movie of the series (thanks mostly to SLJ), and they make just enough past references to tie it to Christmas’ past. How am I wrong?

Oh, wait, so your gift is more work for yourself? 🤣🍻

“I wonder if the cornholes are out?” said my wife as we pulled up to our favorite margarita spot at the local park where they usually have a cornhole league on Thursday nights. That is very intentionally how she refers to the participants. 🤣🤣🤣

By my observation, too many orgs interpret the notions of DevOps, GitOps, and *especially* IaC as an excuse to put too much of the Ops portion of the equation on devs who should not have to care about various .yaml files. It actually bears quite a scary resemblance to J2EE, except even more complex.

The amount of energy I am having to spend these days thinking about k8s and other general infrastructure-level issues just to build my team’s small set of services is pretty insane.

The work these folks have been doing is absolutely essential to a more open and equitable future for web apps. Strongly recommend following and supporting.

Apologies to my Miami friends, but it’s a good day to be a Yellow Jacket!!! 🐝🐝🐝
