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.

The C++26 standard draft is now complete, reports Herb Sutter, long-time C++ expert and former chair of the ISO C++ standards committee. The finalized draft introduces reflection, enhances memory safety without requiring code rewrites, adds contracts with preconditions and postconditions alongside a new assertion statement, and establishes a unified framework for concurrency and parallelism.

Meta introduces Just-in-Time (JiT) testing, a dynamic approach that generates tests during code review instead of relying on static test suites. The system improves bug detection by ~4x in AI-assisted development using LLMs, mutation testing, and intent-aware workflows like Dodgy Diff. It reflects a shift toward change-aware, AI-driven software testing in agentic development environments

A new blog from the Cloud Native Computing Foundation highlights a critical gap in how organizations are deploying large language models (LLMs) on Kubernetes: while Kubernetes excels at orchestrating and isolating workloads, it does not inherently understand or control the behavior of AI systems, creating a fundamentally different and more complex threat model.

Matheus Albuquerque shares strategies for optimizing a massive CX platform, moving from React 15 and Webpack 1 to modern standards. He discusses using AST-based codemods for large-scale migrations, implementing differential serving with module/nomodule, and leveraging Preact to shrink footprints. He explains how to balance cutting-edge performance with strict legacy browser constraints.

Josh, I read a reference to a Josh Davis of Wired Mag in this article and thought of you. We're putting together our 2013 JUG speaker schedule for GatorJUG, OrlandoJUG and Senejug - let me know if you have some interest in Florida or Africa!
Thanks for coming to Gainesville and speaking about the Grails Portal. Even without some prerequisite programming knowledge, the presentation was informative to me and generated some interesting discussions.
All the best,
Justin
Welcome to Codetown! Please feel free to contribute to the discussions and even create your own. If you can update your profile pic that would be great!
