Codetown ::: a software developer's community
Jackie Gleason has agreed to give a GatorJUG talk and the topic is AngularJS. Jackie says he has his Neo4J/GraphDB preso handy, too. Hopefully, we can meet at Santa Fe College but stay tuned.
You can expect good discussion, hot pizza and more. Hope to see ya.
How do you like our GatorJUG Meetup page? It's up for renewal 2/11. If you tell me you like it, we can keep it. If not, http://www.gatorjug.org points to our home at Codetown. You'll have social features here you don't have here on Meetup. Plus, you'll see other technologies besides Java. That's a good thing. I'm voting for Codetown. We meet on the 2nd Wednesday from 6-8PM unless we have a particularly good speaker who can't make it on that day (like Jackie!) We socialize from 6-7 and the presentation begins at 7. There is usually hot, delicious pizza! More info is in the Events section here at Codetown.
And, please join this group to keep up with things and get occasional email about meetings

Thank you Kevin!
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.

By Diana MontalionJEP 502 introduces the Stable Values API in JDK 25, enhancing application startup performance by allowing deferred immutability. This feature enables thread-safe, at-most-once initialization of complex objects, combining the best of final fields with lazy initialization. It empowers developers to improve efficiency and reduce initialization pitfalls while leveraging JVM optimizations.
