Event Description
We have a great presentation you all will love coming up Wed, October 10. Join us for some camaraderie with new and old friends. We'll have tasty food and beverages.
Kevin Neelands has been programming since the Apple 2E was hot stuff and recently has done iPhone and Android programming. Kevin will talk a bit about Android development with Java, some common problems and features and/or patterns that help solve them, and wrap up by showing how design patterns help Android development. The lecture will be appropriate for the Java novice, but experienced programmers might learn a thing or two.
Please let your friends know about GatorJUG. We've been around for a long time. These presentations are too good to miss.
This meeting is sponsored by Cambridge Web Design ::: Working Software Developers.
Happy 10th year, JCertif!

InfoQ Reading List
Presentation: Humans in the Loop: Engineering Leadership in a Chaotic Industry
Michelle Brush discusses engineering leadership in the age of AI/ML and automation. She explains how the Jevons Paradox will create massive software demand, but the Ironies of Automation will make the remaining engineering job harder. She shares 4 skills for success: Systems Thinking, Non-Abstract System Design, Reliability Engineering, and Complexity Theory, stressing the need for junior talent.
By Michelle BrushArticle: Micro-Frontends: A Sociotechnical Journey Toward a Modern Frontend Architecture
Micro-frontends differ from components by emphasising autonomy and flow over standardisation and reuse—a sociotechnical shift aligned with Conway's law. Migration should be gradual, starting where autonomy is most beneficial and ensuring that the architecture aligns with the team structure. Duplication can benefit the flow and enable iterative delivery, rather than requiring extensive rewrites.

At QCon SF, a Stripe engineer presented the company's Zero-Downtime Data Movement Platform, a system enabling petabyte-scale database migrations with traffic switches that typically complete in milliseconds. The platform supports Stripe's infrastructure, handling 5 million database queries per second while maintaining 99.9995% reliability for $1.4 trillion in annual transactions.
