For those that kept up with the first season of Kotlin Thursdays, I'm happy to say that I'm coming back with a second season - and this time, we have friends gearing up to expand content and stream them as episodes in addition to the blogs we write.
Second season comes back mid-October. For those of you that'd like to check out first season content, head over to Kotlin Town and…

Hey, I started a Kotlin group - check it out and join if you'd like! I just put up a page dedicated to Kotlin links, books, and more resources. Will add more features like popular frameworks and chat later on.
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.

Graphify is an open-source tool designed to convert codebases and unstructured data into queryable knowledge graphs. Launched in April 2026, it addresses challenges of multi-file reasoning for AI coding assistants. Recent updates have enhanced parser features and cross-file resolutions. Community feedback indicates a promising architecture but notes integration challenges in daily workflows.

Cloudflare redesigned the in-memory representation of its Big Pineapple DNS cache, reducing the per-entry footprint by 56% and freeing roughly 100 TB of working-set memory across its fleet. The Rust-based changes also increased cache insertion throughput by 43% and reduced lookup latency by 19%, while enabling Cloudflare to increase cache capacity without additional memory.

Jim Gough and Andreea Niculcea explain how Morgan Stanley uses Architecture as Code with CALM to modernize its API program. They demonstrate integrating Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Agent-to-Agent (A2A) communications, enforcing automated governance through deployment gates, and executing zero-downtime platform upgrades to safely scale enterprise AI and agentic workflows.

In a JetBrains interview, Zig creator Andrew Kelley expanded on the project’s formal ban on AI contributions and the motivation behind its migration off GitHub to Codeberg: automated code submissions decrease codebase quality and weaken the social constructs between open-source participants; persistent GitHub failures and a perceived misalignment of incentives led to migrating to Codeberg.

Good day,
I picked interest on you after going through your short profile and demand it necessary to write you
immediately. I have something very vital to disclose to you, but I found it difficult to express myself
here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on (Jonathanbewes9@gmail.com) for the full
details.
Have a nice day.
Jonathan
Here's a link to Ramya's recording of Jim Clarke's presentation to the OrlandoJUG on the new Java release cadence and new features in Java 9, 10, and 11 https://drive.google.com/open?id=1HriPfCLQZxTRPBZ6Pr84uRheVK3BKsxc
Amanda, Ramya posted a recording of Jim's talk in the OrlandoJUG Town group.
Great! Amsterdam is one of the best cities in the world. Good luck on your talk. Maybe you can write up some high points for Kotlin Town. I have a good friend in Amsterdam https://www.facebook.com/alan.byrne Try to eat: stroopwafels and new herring from a street vendor.
Hi Amanda, Jim gave a great talk and someone recorded it. I'll try to get it and post it. How is KotlinConf?
Glad your talk went well. Cool venue! I would hazard a guess that Jim likes native development better. He's here on Codetown, so you can connect with him if you want. I'll talk a bit about the Kotlin revolution at tonight's OrlandoJUG meeting and point people to your Kotlin Town here on Codetown.
Hi Amanda!
Yesterday, I talked with Jim Clarke, author of JavaFX: "Developing Rich Internet Applications"
I mentioned you and your work with Kotlin. I forwarded him some info on TornadoFX.
He's the featured presenter for OrlandoJUG in September.
Looking forward to reading more of your Kotlin articles!
Blog posts about Kotlin would be great. In fact, maybe we'll start a Kotlin group... Can't wait to read your blog posts.
Hi Amanda, welcome on Codetown! I hope you’ll make use of your Codetown blog and join some groups.
