Hello all,
We'll be having a general meeting today from 7:00 to 9:00 PM in Reitz Meeting Room 272. At this meeting, we'll discuss Free Your PC (which is coming up quickly--next Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday!), the Free Culture Conference that several of us attended recently, and other important things for the rest of this semester. I know the notice is short, but please try to come out tonight so we can really coordinate our efforts through the end of the semester.
Best,
Jennifer Griffith-Delgado
President, Florida Free Culture
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.

Sarah Usher discusses the architectural "breaking point" where warehouses like BigQuery struggle with latency and cost. She explains the necessity of a conceptual data lifecycle (Raw, Curated, Use Case) to regain control over lineage and innovation. She shares practical strategies to design a single source of truth that empowers both ML teams and analytics without bottlenecking scale.

The OpenJDK Amber project has published a new design note proposing “carrier classes” and “carrier interfaces” to extend record-style data modeling to more Java types. The proposal preserves concise state descriptions, derived methods, and pattern matching, while relaxing structural constraints that limit records.

Vercel has released Skills.sh, an open-source tool designed to provide AI agents with a standardized way to execute reusable actions, or skills, through the command line.

Cursor has published Agent Trace, a draft open specification aimed at standardizing how AI-generated code is attributed in software projects. Released as a Request for Comments (RFC), the proposal defines a vendor-neutral format for recording AI contributions alongside human authorship in version-controlled codebases.

As systems grow, observability becomes harder to maintain and incidents harder to diagnose. Agentic observability layers AI on existing tools, starting in read-only mode to detect anomalies and summarize issues. Over time, agents add context, correlate signals, and automate low-risk tasks. This approach frees engineers to focus on analysis and judgment.
