Stay tuned as plans firm up...Jim Baker, Jython guy is hoping to join us in the Fall. What's Jython? It's Python on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). Jim's the Jython guru. He's given great talks in the past here at GatorJug. Many of you know him. Jim is a practicing software developer, currently with Rackspace and formerly with Canonical. He's also a prof at Univ of Colorado. You can reach him right here at Codetown.
We normally meet on the 2nd Wed, but the date may adjust so Jim can also give a talk for the OrlandoJug.
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.

LocalStack has recently announced changes to the delivery of its AWS Cloud emulators, dropping the popular open source Community Edition, and creating a single image that requires registration. Projects that currently pull the latest community image will need to update their workflows.

In an effort to probe the limits of autonomous software development Anthropic used sixteen Claude Opus 4.6 AI agents to build a Rust-based C compiler from scratch. Working in parallel on a shared repository, the agents coordinated their changes and ultimately produced a compiler capable of building the Linux 6.9 kernel across x86, ARM, and RISC-V, as well as many other open-source projects.

A recent article by Google Cloud SREs describes how they use the AI-powered Gemini CLI internally to resolve real-world outages. This approach improves reliability in critical infrastructure operations and reduces incident response time by integrating intelligent reasoning directly into the terminal-based operational tools.

Google has overhauled Firestore’s query engine, introducing "Pipeline operations" that enable complex server-side aggregations and array unnesting. The update shifts Firestore Enterprise toward an optional indexing model, allowing architects to prioritize write speed and lower costs. While it brings parity with MongoDB-style aggregations, the preview currently lacks real-time and emulator support.
