Hey guys checkout my new android app for social events in Gainesville
http://goo.gl/qF5sT - the web app built in grails

Feel free to question, comment and critique!

Nem, Very nice! I have bookmarked the Grails web app. Do you have any comments regarding how development went? Any lessons learned to tell?
Nem, This would be a great case study for GatorJUG. Let's talk! /mike
I'm just about to reserve a venue for 12 months of 2013 on the second Wed of each month! <hint>Call for speakers...</hint>
That sounds good, Nem. Thanks. Of the three, the Grails app would be first case study choice, the Android app second and the Atmosphere app third. That is, unless you'd like to talk about them as 2 case studies: the Grails/Android G'Ville Events apps and the Atmosphere app. We get the best turnout with more standard presentations these days, rather than very unique topics.
The next GatorJUG meeting is Wed, January 9th.
Nemanja Nesic - NEM- said:
I'd be glad to talk about my projects. I have another project that i think would be very interesting to talk about. It is another Grails project that uses atmosphere https://github.com/Atmosphere/
Perfect. If you give me a bio and abstract, I'll do the rest. Second Wed of Jan is 1/9.
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.

Anthropic released Claude Haiku 4.5, making the model available to all users as its latest entry in the small, fast model category. The company positions the new model as delivering performance levels comparable to Claude Sonnet 4, which launched five months ago as a state-of-the-art model, but at "one-third the cost and more than twice the speed."

Anthropic's Alignment Science team released a study on poisoning attacks on LLM training. The experiments covered a range of model sizes and datasets, and found that only 250 malicious examples in pre-training data were needed to create a "backdoor" vulnerability. Anthropic concludes that these attacks actually become easier as models scale up.

Cloudflare's innovative Merkle Tree Certificates (MTCs) revolutionize WebPKI, enabling a seamless transition to Post-Quantum (PQ) cryptography without performance penalties. By minimizing TLS handshake overhead and integrating Certificate Transparency, MTCs promise enhanced security while addressing latency concerns, paving the way for future-ready internet security.

Researchers from Standford, Princeton, and Cornell have developed a new benchmark to better evaluate coding abilities of large language models (LLMs). Called CodeClash, the new benchmark pits LLMs against each other in multi-round tournaments to assess their capacity to achieve competitive, high-level objectives beyond narrowly defined, task-specific problems.
