Monday: ✅ JUG Hannover revived ✅ Actually had a few people listening Today: ✅ Had my company @FI_FFM post about it Made me really happy this week!! 🥳 linkedin.com/posts/finanz-i… #maven #java

@brunoborges @cat_edelveis When done, upgrade to JakartaEE 11! 😉

Do it.

@gorschu @MagentaTV @Telekom_hilft Für mich wär's günstiger, aber der Vermieter hat illegal Glasfaserausbau abgelehnt. 😬

Es ist schon Wahnsinn... Da will man 24 Monate Angebot Dings @MagentaTV Smart zu seinem 600/300 Tarif dazubuchen und scheitert gnadenlos. Ich will keinen Tarifwechsel, ich will euch mehr Geld geben @Telekom_hilft .oder ist das wieder nur für komplette Neukunden?

@myfear @IBM @IBMDeveloper I'll be there next week 😂 Too bad we missed each other

I had the pleasure to visit #IBM Hursley last week and talk about #Middleware, #Quarkus, and of course #IBMBob 🙂 @IBM @IBMDeveloper

Is Anyone else going to be in Southampton/Hursley next week? 😃

Früher war es mal Aufgabe der Familienministerin für mehr Geld für Familien zu kämpfen und Aufgabe des Finanzministers für Einsparungen zu kämpfen und dann hat man versucht, sich irgendwie zu einigen. (Zumindest nach außen hin) Das fehlt mir.

@jorsol_com +1. I had an Ubuntu Streak for over a decade, and even after switching to Manjaro (and then EndeavourOS), I never needed to re-set-up my home drive.

Release of logback version 1.5.34 • In case certain StackTraceElement values returned by the Throwable.getStackTrace method are null, StackTraceElementProxy substitutes a dummy instance instead of throwing an IllegalArgumentException. This resolves issues #1040, reported by Naotsugu Kobayashi. • HardenedObjectInputStream will now throw an InvalidClassException during deserialization attempts of Proxy classes. This change addresses potential deserialization whitelist bypass vulnerability reported by York Shen and registered as CVE-2026-10532.

@MrPeterLMorris @Tyrrrz What effort? New repos have main as default, and you don't even need to retrain finger gymnastics: it's still: gsw ma<TAB>.

@Tyrrrz I use master, because I don't have the need to feel that I am making a change without having to make any effort or difference.

I use `prime` on all my repos because it sounds cool

Install #nexus or #artifactory or others in your startup, big tech, fintech or wherever you work and consume from #maven central! central.sonatype.org/faq/429-error/

Better install a #Maven repository mirror!

@espiekermann @MarcoJunk Solche "Ökonomen" verstehen halt nicht, dass "keine Energiewende" halt noch teurer ist... 🤷🏻‍♂️

@MarcoJunk Kein Wunder, dass niemand diese rückwärtsgewandte FDP wählt b

Das Verrückte an der #Energiewende ist, dass man von Anfang an wusste, sie ist physikalisch-ökonomisch unmöglich. Es gibt keine Speicher für Tage, keine suffiziente Wasserkraft und auch keine Topologie, Pumpspeicher bauen zu können. Von Anfang an im Ergebnis sicher schachmatt.

@Brian_Fox What happens next? Public blog posts, 4xx errors..?

The silence is deafening here.

@AquaTrivy @AquaSecTeam we need to talk about your use of Maven Central. It's egregious.

One down, two to go! Thank you @jcon_conference for having us and the people who came up after our talk for your kind feedback!

@hannover Top. Kindern sollte "Office" (allgemein) beigebracht werden, nicht "das Produkt von Firma X".

Die Landeshauptstadt Hannover setzt die Einführung von Microsoft 365 an Schulen vorerst aus. Hintergrund sind noch offene datenschutzrechtliche Fragen im Zusammenhang mit dem Einsatz der Software. 👉 FAQs und weitere Informationen gibt es hier: hannover.de/Service/Presse…

@PP_Vortex Ja, kann das bestätigen. Bin sehr glücklich, die Beschränkungen sind nicht so schlimm das man nicht arbeiten kann. Es sind alle coolen und hippen tools da. Und ich sorge für ein aktuelles Java 😀 Java 25 für Bank-IT ist ein Wort, oder? 😉

@bmarwell Ich habe aber viele Jahre eng mit Bank-IT zusammengearbeitet und die haben mir oft aus ganz vielen technischen/prozessualen Gründen leid getan 😅 Inhaltlich ist das aber ein wahnsinnig interessantes Feld!

Dieser Moment, wenn du als Entwicklerin(!) keine Adminberechtigungen mehr hast und Hilfe vom IT-Support brauchst, um etwas zu installieren. 😭

@aakashgupta @cortizq While the general concept is correct, Linux and *BSD are not working the way you describe them. Installation files were always tracked. That's easy and not new. Dynamic libraries mean: you're saving gigabytes of duplicate libraries. That's a great advantage I see.

Let me explain exactly why Apple still uses drag-to-install in 2026, because the joke here accidentally proves Apple right. A macOS .app is a single self-contained folder disguised as a file. Every dependency, every framework, every resource lives inside it. Drag it to Applications, it works. Drag it to Trash, it's gone. No registry entries. No leftover DLLs. No uninstaller that misses half the files. Windows installers scatter fragments across Program Files, AppData, the registry, system32, and a dozen temp directories. Uninstalling a Windows app is an archaeological dig. Five years later you're still finding config files from software you forgot you owned. Linux is worse. Dependency hell is so common they named it. Entire package managers exist to solve the problem of "I installed something and now nothing else works." Flatpak and Snap were invented specifically to copy what macOS bundles already did natively. The macOS bundle architecture came from NeXTSTEP in 1989. Steve Jobs brought it to OS X in 2001. The core design hasn't changed because the core design was correct. An app is a folder. Installation is a copy. Removal is a delete. Three operations that map perfectly to how humans already think about files. The drag-to-install window with the arrow isn't lazy UX. It's the entire thesis of the system made visible. You are literally just moving a folder. There is no "installation" step because there's nothing to install. The app is already complete. Every other OS eventually tried to get here. Windows got MSIX. Linux got Flatpak. Mobile figured it out from day one because phones shipped after Apple proved the model. The pattern everyone else converged toward is the pattern this tweet is calling outdated. The funniest part: the app being dragged in that screenshot is Claude. An AI that can write code, analyze documents, and reason about complex systems. And the most advanced step in getting it onto your machine is holding down a mouse button and moving your wrist two inches to the right. That's not a design failure. That's a 37-year-old architecture so good that the most sophisticated software on earth still ships inside it.
