Feel free to question, comment and critique!

Nem, Very nice! I have bookmarked the Grails web app. Do you have any comments regarding how development went? Any lessons learned to tell?
Nem, This would be a great case study for GatorJUG. Let's talk! /mike
I'm just about to reserve a venue for 12 months of 2013 on the second Wed of each month! <hint>Call for speakers...</hint>
That sounds good, Nem. Thanks. Of the three, the Grails app would be first case study choice, the Android app second and the Atmosphere app third. That is, unless you'd like to talk about them as 2 case studies: the Grails/Android G'Ville Events apps and the Atmosphere app. We get the best turnout with more standard presentations these days, rather than very unique topics.
The next GatorJUG meeting is Wed, January 9th.

I'd be glad to talk about my projects. I have another project that i think would be very interesting to talk about. It is another Grails project that uses atmosphere https://github.com/Atmosphere/
Perfect. If you give me a bio and abstract, I'll do the rest. Second Wed of Jan is 1/9.
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.

Tailwind CSS version 4.2.0, released on February 18, 2026, includes a webpack plugin for streamlined integration and four new color palettes. It expands logical property utilities and improves recompilation speed by 3.8x. This update is particularly beneficial for teams on existing projects and those developing multilingual applications.

Cloudflare and ETH Zurich highlight how AI-driven crawler traffic challenges traditional caching in CDNs and databases. They propose AI-aware strategies including separate cache tiers, adaptive algorithms, and pay-per-crawl models to balance performance for human users and AI services while maintaining cache efficiency and system stability.

GitHub has just announced the availability of custom images for its hosted runners. They've finally left the public preview phase that started back in October behind them. This feature will enable teams to use a GitHub-approved base image and then construct a virtual machine image that really meets their workflow requirements.

Alex Good discusses the fragility of modern cloud-dependent apps and shares a roadmap for "local-first" software. By leveraging a Git-like DAG structure and Automerge, he explains how to move from brittle client-server models to resilient systems where data lives on-device. He explores technical implementation, rich-text merging, and how this infrastructure simplifies engineering workflows.

Agent workflows make transport a first-order concern. Multi-turn, tool-heavy loops amplify overhead that is negligible in single-turn LLM use. Stateful continuation cuts overhead dramatically. Caching context server-side can reduce client-sent data by 80%+ and improve execution time by 15–29% .
