This month, Jim Clarke will give a talk on Embedded Java SE - JavaSE running on ARM, PowerPC, ATOM, and Oracle will provide refreshments!
Jim gave this presentation for the GatorJUG last month. There are subtleties that you'll want to know when you start programming for embedded devices. Think of the possibilities. You've heard of Arduino? Think Arduino on steroids. Here's a free manual that discusses programming embedded devices using Java. Take a look and prepare yourself to be educated by a pro.
Stay tuned for more details!

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.
By Peter Hunter, Elena StojmilovaMagdalena Picariello reframes how we think about AI, moving the conversation from algorithms and metrics to business impact and outcomes. She champions evaluation systems that don't just measure accuracy but also demonstrate real-world business value, and advocates for iterative development with continuous feedback to build optimal applications.
