We had such a great time at the Eden Bar last month, I think we may do it again. Unless we get a special guest speaker ;-) I'll put it this way: expect a talk sometime in the near future on simulation. When that happens, we'll wind up in a meeting room with an overhead projector. But for the moment, I think we'll have a casual meeting at the lovely Eden Bar with ample beer and food, atmosphere galore.
Ben King is a local developer who has been working with Swift and may drop by to share what he's learned with us.
If you haven't actually joined the OrlandoJUG group here at Codetown, please do. That way, you'll get email when I post these meeting announcements and also you'll see when others post discussions there. http://www.codetown.us/group/orlandojug
Personally, I've been spending a lot of time learning Android programming, so I'll have things to say about that.
And, that's not all! There's so much going on in the software world, including beacons - have you heard about beacons? They are smart, stick on devices with built in sensors and accelerometers. Check out Estimote for an example. So cool...#nearables
So, stay tuned and like I said, please join the http://www.codetown.us/group/orlandojug group so you'll be in the know about these meetings.
As always, I hope to see you 2/26/15...

So what specifically is the topic for the meetup? Is it like last month where it was general discussion? Or is it more a discussion around mobile development? Or is it specifically on Swift?
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.

Swiggy detailed real-time machine-learning ranking system for autocomplete built on OpenSearch. The architecture separates candidate generation and ranking, uses feature stores for real time signals, and applies learning to rank models for improved relevance. It replaces heuristic ranking while maintaining strict latency constraints and enabling continuous model updates from user behavior signals.

Anthropic hosted "Code with Claude 2026" in San Francisco, featuring livestream sessions focused on Claude Code, the Claude API platform, and other projects. Key topics included developer experience, autonomy features, model step-changes, and the impact of AI on product architecture. Discussions included insights from GitHub, Vercel, and AI-native startups on engineering strategies and challenges.

This week's Java roundup for May 11th, 2026, features news highlighting: three OpenJDK JEPs targeted for JDK 27; introducting Azul Payara Community and the WildFly wado CLI tool; point releases of LangChain4j and Google ADK; and maintenance releases of Micronaut and OpenXava.
By Michael RedlichMichael Stiefel spoke to Baruch Sadogursky about software architecture in the age of agentic AI. LLM can function, albeit stochastically, as reasoning machines capable of interpreting human ambiguity. With the appropriate rigorous context artifacts to control the LLM’s reasoning, software specifications can become the source of truth, while the code becomes a disposable intermediate language.

We wanted to expose a B2B intelligence platform built on more than one million company profiles to an LLM client through an MCP server so a user can ask “find SaaS companies in Germany with 50-200 employees” and receive results through the LLM client. The engineering problem was: How do you make that workflow useful without creating an unsafe bridge between an LLM and production data?
