Ken was here last year and that's the picture of our group that night.
Meeting Overview:
Looks like we are going to have our meeting at Canvs! I did a walk through and took some photos. I wrote it up here: http://www.codetown.us/group/orlandojug/forum/topics/canvs-in-our-future
Please tell your friends and colleagues so we have a good turnout. And, please update your Codetown profiles! Photos, bio info, location is nice to know and don't forget about your blog. And, be sure to actually join the OJUG Town group here on Codetown so you'll be easy to spot and reach. You can use the invite feature, too!
As always, I hope to see you there and I hope to see many new faces.
All the best,
Michael Levin

By Steef-Jan WiggersPlanetScale has recently announced that vector support is now generally available. Created as a fork of MySQL, this new feature allows storing vector data alongside an application's relational MySQL data, removing the need for a separate specialized vector database.
By Renato LosioShawna Martell shares practical strategies to effectively manage legacy code and tech debt. Learn how to lift existing code, gain buy-in for improvements, and build new systems with future maintainability in mind using encapsulation, testing, and linting. She explains the Strangler Fig pattern and provides actionable advice for creating code that ages gracefully and minimizes future headaches.
By Shawna MartellA rigid hierarchical dynamic between senior and junior software engineers can stifle innovation, discourage fresh perspectives, and create barriers to collaboration. According to Beth Anderson, senior engineers can actively learn from their junior counterparts. She suggests creating an environment of mutual growth, psychological safety, and continuous learning.
By Ben LindersFor systems that require strict synchronization—like distributed databases, telemetry pipelines, or event-driven architectures—handling leap seconds incorrectly can lead to data loss, duplication, or inconsistencies. As such, managing leap seconds accurately ensures system reliability and consistency across environments that depend on high-precision time.
