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!

Meta has officially released the first models in its new Llama 4 family—Scout and Maverick—marking a step forward in its open-weight large language model ecosystem. Designed with a native multimodal architecture and a mixture-of-experts (MoE) framework, these models aim to support a broader range of applications, from image understanding to long-context reasoning.
By Robert KrzaczyńskiFabien Deshayes spoke on how Monzo has created and optimised their developer experience teams in a talk at QCon London 2025. Deshayes outlined some techniques for building an effective Developer Experience platform, focusing on three key aspects: assembling effective teams, building impactful products, and communicating value across the organisation.
By Matt SaundersDiff Authoring Time (DAT). DAT is a new metric developed by engineers at Meta to measure the duration required for developers to submit changes, known as "diffs," to the codebase. By tracking the time from the initiation of a code change to its submission, DAT offers insights into the efficiency of the development process and helps identify areas for improvement.
By Craig RisiAnil Rajput and Rema Hariharan discuss the crucial role of CPU architecture in optimizing Large Language Model (LLM), specifically Llama, performance. They explain hardware-software synchronization for TCO reduction and latency improvements. Learn about core utilization, cache impact, memory bandwidth considerations, and the benefits of chiplet architecture for LLM deployments on CPUs.
By Anil Rajput, Rema HariharanIn this article, authors discuss how multi-model retrieval augmented generation (RAG) techniques can enhance AI by integrating multiple modalities like text, images, and audio for deeper contextual understanding, with help of a practical example of a healthcare application.
