Howdy Java Enthusiasts!
We have a great presentation coming up next Thursday, 11/15. Hope you can make it. Be sure to RSVP!
Docker and Gradle
Docker combined with some modest JVM tooling can solve a lot of development problems in some very interesting ways. This talk dives into a few of those situations, and shows an example of how we have utilized Docker with Gradle in our product development. It also explores some of the other options we have to integrate Docker with JUnit/Spock tests and some of the benefits/pitfalls of this approach.
Speaker Joe McCall is a professional software engineer for Intrepid Networks in the Sanford area that has been working with Java/JVM professionally since 2011, and Groovy/Grails since 2012, both on Web and Mobiler.

By Almir VukRichard Startin explores the relationship between complexity and performance through the lens of recent improvements to the Java String class, visiting continuous profiling and some assembly code.
By Richard StartinProgramming rules and guidelines improve code consistency, but misapplication can lead to poor results. Arne Mertz suggests that software developers selectively adopt rules and guidelines, and document deviations with clear explanations. They can discuss their experiences in communities or during their daily work, to foster collaboration and improve code quality without unnecessary bureaucracy.

By Steef-Jan WiggersOne month after the release of Quarkus 3.18.0, version 3.19.0 was released in February 2025. This is the last release before the next long-term support (LTS) version, 3.20.0, which is now feature complete and scheduled to be released on March 26th according to the Release Planning guide. The new release uses the new @ConfigMapping infrastructure, UBI 9 images and Mockito’s inline strategy.
