Codetown ::: a software developer's community
Ivar came to the Swamp for the #j4kio conference a few days ago. He had just been in South Africa giving a presentation. And, just before that, we met up in Crete for the fabulous www.jcrete.org conference. #jcrete How about that! Ivar lives in Sweden. He keeps fit and always rents a car wherever he goes so he can explore the area. In just a few days, if you missed the www.j4k.io conference, there will be similar talks, including Ivar, on a virtual Jakarta webcast. That's Aug 10th. I'll put the details up on www.Codetown.com. Ivar, great seeing you!

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.

As an AI team manager, Vivek Gupta stays broadly informed to guide AI experts effectively and drive the team. Engineers need feedback on both technical and interpersonal skills, Gupta mentioned at Dev Summit Boston. He stresses learning time, asking for help, and cross-team collaboration. Mentorship, data handling, and human-in-the-loop validation are key to success for machine learning engineers.

Katharine Jarmul challenged five common AI security and privacy myths in her InfoQ Dev Summit Munich 2025 keynote: that guardrails will protect us, better model performance improves security, risk taxonomies solve problems, one-time red teaming suffices, and the next model version will fix current issues. She said that current approaches to AI safety rely too heavily on technical solutions.
