Codetown ::: a software developer's community
Hello Codetown!
I just got this from Oracle:
We’re Moving Java Forward. Watch the Webcast Replay of the Java 7 Launch Today.
Dear Michael Levin,
Thank you for participating in the Java 7 live event and Webcast that celebrates our global community collaboration.
However, if you didn’t get a chance to join us for the live event or Webcast today, you can still watch a replay of the entire Java 7 celebration event. Just click here.
You’ll get to watch an amazing four-and-a-half-hour program that includes a one-hour general session delivered from Redwood Shores, California; London, England; and São Paulo, Brazil. You’ll see four engaging, 30-minute technical deep dives, which will provide the information you need to take immediate advantage of key Java 7 features. And, listen as an expert Q&A panel provides answers to questions submitted by the Java community via social media during the live broadcast.
But Java isn’t the only thing that’s moving forward. Duke has unleashed a new personality and is now available for a limited time in a 3-D, animated screen saver.
Thanks again for joining us in the important mission to move Java forward.
Watch the replay of the Java 7 Webcast now.
Duke and the Java Team

Dan Chao explains how Pkl streamlines infrastructure as code workflows. By defining schemas and constraints, Pkl enables robust configuration management, catching errors early and providing clear feedback. The demo showcases Pkl's ability to generate YAML for Kubernetes and its advantages over manual YAML complexity.
By Dan ChaoWeb accessibility ensures content is usable by people with disabilities. According to Joanna Falkowska it can give a competitive edge, improve SEO, and support basic human rights.

By Matt FosterPrime Intellect has released INTELLECT-2, a 32 billion parameter language model trained using fully asynchronous reinforcement learning across a decentralized network of compute contributors. Unlike traditional centralized model training, INTELLECT-2 is developed on a permissionless infrastructure where rollout generation, policy updates, and training are distributed and loosely coupled.
