This month we'll meet at First Magnitude Brewery and have a relaxed "Open Spaces" style meeting. What is Open Spaces? That's inspired by the formal Open Spaces approach where the subjects that are most interesting get discussed. In our case, we have one member who just finished two smartphone apps, so those case studies are very interesting candidates for discussion. We have another member who is working with a startup that is adding lots of features to their website practically real time. I could go on, but I think you get the idea.
First Magnitude has a big, open courtyard in back, so look for me and bring whatever you'd like to support your talk. Digital is great, too!
FYI, GatorJUG has one ticket to Open Source Bridge to raffle off. It's a fantastic conference. We also may have discounts available to OSCON.
Hope to see you there. Feel free to contact me with any questions.

Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

Cassie Shum discusses the architectural evolution of GraphRAG and why data foundations are critical for advanced AI workflows. She explains how traditional vector RAG falls short when addressing global context, multi-hop reasoning, and provenance. She shares enterprise strategies for building semantically structured knowledge graphs that shift raw orchestrating logic down to the data layer.

HeroUI v3 is a redesigned React component library, previously NextUI, offering over 75 components, including 21 new ones, and a new React Native library with 37 components. Built on React Aria and Tailwind CSS v4, it emphasizes accessibility and customization. The library has experienced many updates since its release, and migration from the previous version is necessary.

The panelists explain the realities of running AI systems reliably at scale. While building models is solved, maintaining production databases under constant pressure is not. They discuss the emerging architectural decisions separating teams that scale gracefully from those facing catastrophic outages, and what engineering leaders must rethink today.

Sriram Madapusi Vasudevan discusses industry-converging patterns for securing autonomous AI agents in production. He explains the critical vulnerabilities hidden inside the ReAct loop across context, reasoning, and tool execution. He shares how to mitigate risks like memory poisoning and rogue tool execution using defense-in-depth strategies, LLM-as-a-judge critics, and MAESTRO threat modeling.
