Developer Day was born out of the realization that there's a huge amount of development talent and experience spread across the country, and there's absolutely no need to spend a lot of money to get together and learn from each other. Furthermore, so many of the venues for assembling geeks are focused on a single technology. We need less specialization right now, and more places to talk to people for whom tools are tools, but tech is king. When you want to talk to Ruby geeks, head out to RubyFringe or Ruby Hoedown. When Java is on top, catch an NFJS, or JavaOne. But where are you to go when you just want to talk to and hear from people who are putting a bunch of technologies to use solving interesting problems?
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.

By Sergio De SimoneGoogle DeepMind has recently released the Gemini 2.5 Computer Use model, a specialized variant of its Gemini 2.5 Pro system designed to enable AI agents to interact directly with graphical user interfaces. The new model allows developers to build agents that can click, type, scroll, and manipulate interactive elements on web pages.
By Robert KrzaczyńskiPair programming and continuous integration can go hand-in-hand. Pushing to main multiple times a day is hard in isolation, leading to delays, large PRs, and merge issues, Ola Hast and Asgaut Mjølne Söderbom mentioned in their talk about continuous delivery with pair programming at QCon London. Pairing enables instant code review, easier refactoring, fewer bugs, and higher team resilience.
By Ben LindersMicrosoft has released Azure Container Storage v2.0.0, introducing significant performance enhancements and architectural simplifications for stateful workloads on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). The release focuses on deeper NVMe integration, streamlined user experience, and expanded open-source availability, while removing all service fees beyond underlying storage costs.
By Claudio MasoloIBM Research has recently introduced Granite-Docling-258M, a new open-source vision-language model (VLM) designed for high-fidelity document-to-text conversion while preserving complex layouts, tables, equations, and lists.
