How did you hear about Codetown?
I went to a JUG meeting, and I found out there's a "facebook for coders". I don't have a facebook, but a facebook for coders doesn't sound so bad.
What are your main interests in software development?
right now, I'm just interested in learning as many languages as I can as well as I can (I'm decent at C++ and Perl, and I can say hello world in Java, Python, Lisp, Haskell, JavaScript, Ruby, and C#), and getting some practical coding experience under my belt. as far as projects go, I'm not good enough at either relevant language (C++/C#) to program games for my phone, but that's probably what I'll end up doing a lot of over the next year.

well, that and learning some of this new XHTML stuff (last time I wrote HTML was almost a decade ago. I hear it's changed) and figuring out CGI.pm, so I can put up a web site.
Do you have a website?

Anything else you'd like to add? Where do you live? (optional!)
I don't care what anyone says, I still think JavaScript.onMouseOver is a funny way to play internet pranks on people.

Podcast: [Video Podcast] The Craft of Software Architecture in the Age of AI Tools

AI coding assistants promise speed, but what do they mean for quality, trust, and the architect’s craft? In this inaugural episode of Next Gen Architecture Playbook, Shweta Vohra and Grady Booch explore a principled view of how architecture must evolve when machines begin writing code alongside humans. They unpack the third golden age of software engineering, where productivity gains are real.

CloudFront Adds Origin mTLS Authentication for End-to-End Zero Trust

Amazon CloudFront now supports mutual TLS authentication for origin servers, completing end-to-end zero-trust authentication from viewers to backends. The feature replaces IP allowlists and shared secrets with cryptographic verification, proving particularly valuable for multi-cloud deployments, where origins can verify that traffic originated from CloudFront without VPN tunnels.

Kubernetes Drives AI Expansion as Cultural Shift Becomes Critical

A new CNCF report identifies Kubernetes as the primary engine for AI growth, with 82% production adoption. However, technical maturity has outpaced organisational change. Human factors, such as siloed team structures and a lack of cross-functional collaboration, now serve as the leading barriers to successful deployment, making cultural transformation the decisive factor for AI scaling.
