I didn't mean to make you feel bad, I know how busy you must be. It's just we could do more to promote this site. Does the twitter thingie work for you?
Hey Mike! Conference is awesome. Hoping to post talks as soon as they're up. My talk os tomorrow! Also that's great I would love to hear his talk!!! We're doing a lot with AOP and metaprogramming
Hi Michael, nice to meet you. When is the next meeting? I may need some time to prepare and practice. The talk I'm writing outlines how we use Docker with the Gradle build tool to empower local development of cloud applications. Examples will include Grails and Spring Boot.
So cool Jim Clarke will be having a talk at OJUG! What are the chances his talk might be recorded? I have his book and am a huge fan. Love to get his view on the continued value in native development.
TornadoFX workshop should be recorded for tomorrow at Chicago GDG: I'll be sure to post in Kotlintown!
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.
When you create a profile for yourself you get a personal page automatically. That's where you can be creative and do your own thing. People who want to get to know you will click on your name or picture and…
Cloudflare has recently introduced temporary accounts that let AI agents deploy Cloudflare Workers immediately, without first creating or authenticating with a permanent account. If left unclaimed, the accounts and their deployments expire automatically after 60 minutes.
Agentic testing is an AI-driven approach to end-to-end test automation introduced by Slack engineering. It uses AI agents that execute workflows based on intent rather than fixed scripts, adapting to UI and system changes at runtime. The approach aims to reduce brittle tests in distributed systems while complementing deterministic unit, integration, and E2E testing strategies.
Bryan Oliver discusses the frontier of AI infrastructure: chaos engineering for large-scale GPU clusters. He shares how engineering leaders can handle complex topologies, network protocols like RDMA, and NUMA misalignments. Discover seven practical fault-injection strategies to maximize multi-million dollar hardware efficiency and build robust observability loops.
The Linux Foundation has launched Akrites, a new industry-wide initiative aimed at defending the world's most critical open source software against a rapidly evolving generation of AI-enabled cyber threats.
GitHub has made the redesigned GitHub Copilot CLI terminal interface generally available. It adds a tabbed layout for sessions, gists, issues, and pull requests; an in-session, form-driven setup for MCP servers, skills, and plugins that avoids hand-editing config files; and a cleaner, theme-aware, more accessible UI with screen reader support.

Thanks so much for the birthday wishes. I know it's so late getting back to you but I don't check this website very often.
Thanks for the invitation and the birthday wishes, Mike!
Thanks. I'm interested either way (either 10/25 or the rescheduled day).
Sure Mike. I can do that

Thank you MIchael!
Thank you Mike for making me a part of this group. I feel very welcomed. Looking forward to learn and share!
Thanks Michael, to have me in the group!
I think I’d want to attend a few meetings to get a flavor for the group before jumping into a speaking role…
Thanks Michael for adding me in OJUG
I'm excited to attend events on Java related technologies
Thanx Michael, great to be here
