How did you hear about Codetown?
I went to a JUG meeting, and I found out there's a "facebook for coders". I don't have a facebook, but a facebook for coders doesn't sound so bad.
What are your main interests in software development?
right now, I'm just interested in learning as many languages as I can as well as I can (I'm decent at C++ and Perl, and I can say hello world in Java, Python, Lisp, Haskell, JavaScript, Ruby, and C#), and getting some practical coding experience under my belt. as far as projects go, I'm not good enough at either relevant language (C++/C#) to program games for my phone, but that's probably what I'll end up doing a lot of over the next year.

well, that and learning some of this new XHTML stuff (last time I wrote HTML was almost a decade ago. I hear it's changed) and figuring out CGI.pm, so I can put up a web site.
Do you have a website?

Anything else you'd like to add? Where do you live? (optional!)
I don't care what anyone says, I still think JavaScript.onMouseOver is a funny way to play internet pranks on people.

Pulumi Adds Full Bun Runtime Support

Pulumi has announced that Bun is now a fully supported runtime for Pulumi, going beyond its previous role as merely a package manager option. With the new release of Pulumi 3.227.0, developers can set runtime: bun in their Pulumi.yaml and have Bun execute their entire infrastructure program, with no Node.js installation required.

C++26: Reflection, Memory Safety, Contracts, and a New Async Model

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 Reports 4x Higher Bug Detection with Just-in-Time Testing

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

CNCF Warns Kubernetes Alone Is Not Enough to Secure LLM Workloads

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.
