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!

For one company, large language models created a breakthrough in artificial intelligence (AI) by shifting to crafting prompts and utilizing APIs without a need for AI science expertise. To enhance developer experience and craft applications and tools, they defined and established principles around simplicity, immediate accessibility, security and quality, and cost efficiency.
Just as a Minimum-Viable Architecture (MVA) approach does not create a system’s architecture in a single step, adopting an MVA approach takes a series of incremental steps as well. These organizational changes start with a single development team and use feedback to evolve the process as more teams are brought in.
JetBrains released IntelliJ IDEA 2024.1 featuring support for Java 22 features, OpenRewrite, WireMock server, the Maven Shade Plugin and full line code completion for Java and Kotlin.
David Grizzanti talks about his path to Staff+ and how he views it as more art than science, looking at the parallels between creating art, creating software, and dealing with organizational dynamics.
HashiCorp has released version 1.8 of Terraform, their infrastructure-as-code language. The release introduces provider-defined functions. This enables the creation of custom functions within a given provider that handle computational-style tasks. Several providers have introduced new provider-defined functions. Version 1.8 also introduces improvements to refactoring across resource types.
