Good news!
Ben King (Keep It Simple Tech) keeps an eye on his app....on his watch. His company, Keep It Simple Tech launched app ABC, Always Be in Contact recently. It's cool! Try it out.
How did he do it? Well, it's not a one man show. There's also an incubator involved. How about the development model? Join us at the next GatorJUG and learn all about smartphone SDLC.
All of us are inevitably wondering whether to make the leap to smart watches if we haven't already.
And, GatorJUG folks are thinking beyond buying the watches or downloading the apps. We're thinking about making the apps! For sure! That's what we do.
It's springtime and the backyard at First Magnitude is where we'll meet next Wednesday, from 6-9PM. Please RSVP here at the event announcement.
We have a new sponsor: JSPTester. JSPTester is a Java testing tool to help you test your JSP. According to the website, "JSPTester is a web-based tool for the isolated testing and prototyping of JSP pages! JspTester™ seamlessly integrates with your web application, allowing you to test the rendering of JSP pages by injecting request parameters, model attributes and session variables without the need of business logic or an MVC controller." Check it out here: http://www.JSPTester.com
Thanks to JSPTester, we'll have some dee-licious munchies.
Cambridge Web Design is an official GatorJUG sponsor. CWD ::: Working Software Developers...since 1997!
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.

Meta's PyTorch team and Hugging Face have launched OpenEnv, an open-source platform for standardizing AI agent environments. The OpenEnv Hub features secure sandboxes that define the necessary tools and APIs for safe, predictable AI operation. Developers can explore, contribute, and refine environments, paving the way for scalable agent development in the open-source RL ecosystem.

David Blank-Edelman (Microsoft SRE Academy) explains 7 essential questions to elevate your reliability practice. He challenges engineering leaders to redefine reliability metrics beyond availability, replace "root cause" with contributing factors, critique the 5 whys, re-evaluate the true goals of toil automation, and understand SRE's role (firefighting vs. partnership).

Pico-Banana-400K is a curated dataset of 400,000 images developed by Apple researchers to make it easier to create text-guided image editing models. The images were generated using Google's Nano-Banana to modify real photographs from the Open Images collecion and were then filtered using Gemini-2.5-Pro based on their overall quality and prompt compliance.

In today’s rapidly evolving tech landscape, centralized architectural decision-making can become a bottleneck to delivery performance and innovation. Through stories from our own journey, we’ll share how decentralizing decisions improved alignment across teams, empowered faster decision-making, and fostered a culture of ownership.
