Hi there,
I have couple announcements.
First: Do you need Java scheduling? How about try out an easy web based UI with Quartz!
Both myschedule-2.1.2 (for Quartz-2.1.0) and myschedule-1.5.2(for Quartz-1.8.5) releases are available for download here: http://code.google.com/p/myschedule/downloads/list
I have fixed few bugs and improved the UI slightly. Both of these releases should now deployable on Tomcat6, Tomcat7, and JBossAS servers!
Second: Quartz 2.1.0 has been released!
I have become a Quartz committer! In this release, I have helped fixed some bugs, and added a new built-in trigger type: DailyTimeIntervalTrigger. This new trigger will allow you to specify a interval time in either seconds, minutes, or hours interval on each day (Like fire every 72 mins starting at 7am everyday). And the daily start time will be reset each day regardless what time it ended in that day! You may even limit daily ending time too. And you may limit the days to run on certain weekdays only as well. You may see many examples on how this trigger is used here: http://svn.terracotta.org/fisheye/browse/Quartz/trunk/quartz/src/te...
Another feature worthy of note in this release is the "batch" mode is finally working! You may turn this on by using "org.quartz.scheduler.batchTriggerAcquisitionMaxCount" and "org.quartz.scheduler.batchTriggerAcquisitionFireAheadTimeWindow" in your quartz.properties file. See config doc here: http://quartz-scheduler.org/documentation/quartz-2.1.x/configuratio...
Enjoy!

Google DeepMind researchers introduced SIMA 2 (Scalable Instructable Multiworld Agent), a generalist agent built on the Gemini foundation model that can understand and act across multiple 3D virtual game environments. The SIMA 2 architecture uses a Gemini Flash-Lite model trained on a mixture of gameplay and Gemini pretraining data.

Delivery performance rarely changes in a straight line. Small degradations caused by tooling, environment instability, or team changes can accumulate quietly, while real improvements take time to emerge. This article shows how combining DORA metrics with Process Behavior Charts helps teams zoom out, detect meaningful shifts early, and validate improvement hypotheses.

Microsoft has announced the general availability of SharePoint Framework (SPFx) version 1.22, a release centered on modernising the build and tooling experience for SPFx developers. This shift marks a foundational update to how SPFx solutions are built, aimed at addressing technical debt, improving extensibility, and aligning with broader Microsoft toolchain standards.

Agoda’s AI Developer Report 2025 shows that AI has become a mainstream tool for developers in Southeast Asia and India, delivering real productivity gains while raising new questions about reliability, skills, and organisational readiness. Currently, it's more of a bottom-up initiative than an enterprise-orchestrated program, where developers are learning from each other or online.
