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.
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.

Grab updated its internal platform to monitor Apache Kafka data quality in real time. The system uses FlinkSQL and an LLM to detect syntactic and semantic errors. It currently tracks 100+ topics, preventing invalid data from reaching downstream users. This proactive strategy aligns with industry trends to treat data streams as reliable products.

Serving Large Language Models (LLMs) at scale is complex. Modern LLMs now exceed the memory and compute capacity of a single GPU or even a single multi-GPU node. As a result, inference workloads for 70B+, 120B+ parameter models, or pipelines with large context windows, require multi-node, distributed GPU deployments.

Karrot replaced its legacy recommendation system with a scalable architecture that leverages various AWS services. The company sought to address challenges related to tight coupling, limited scalability, and poor reliability in its previous solution, opting instead for a distributed, event-driven architecture built on top of scalable cloud services.

Sharing your work as a software engineer inspires others, invites feedback, and fosters personal growth, Suhail Patel said at QCon London. Normalizing and owning incidents builds trust, and it supports understanding the complexities. AI enables automation but needs proper guidance, context, and security guardrails.
By Ben LindersThe article shares goals and strategies for scaling cloud and distributed applications, focusing on lessons learned from cloud migration at Chase.com at JP Morgan Chase. The discussion centers on three primary goals and the strategies addressing the goals, concluding how these approaches were achieved in practice. For those managing large-scale systems, these lessons provide valuable guidance!
