Watching something I once really liked slowly but surely fall apart makes me so sad. 😔

On my way home after a wonderful @BaselOne. The slides from my talk “Keep your dependencies up to date with @renovatebot” are already available at innoq.com/en/talks/2025/…. Thanks for having me and all the good conversations.

If you visited my talk, “What? That's possible in #Java?” at @Devoxx last week or already watched the recording on YouTube (youtube.com/watch?v=DfeCGn…), you can now also check out the examples on GitHub (github.com/mvitz/wat-java…).

@pablobbrenner @Pocket No. My current luck is that typically I'm not saving to pocket from my browser and therefore can live without any extension. But that's not a real solution...

@michaelvitz @Pocket any luck with this?

@Pocket it seems the save to pocket extension for chrome is gone from chrome App Store. Any alternative for storing articles from chrome? Every article/help entry on your side still only points to that extension which can’t be installed any longer.

Recently, someone asked if I know companies that work within the core #java universe (like JDK vendors, tooling, no pure consulting) and are willing to hire people from Germany who can work from home. As I have no clue, please ping me if that matches your company.

If you're curious about #java and the #jdk ecosystem, you should attend jchampionsconf.com. This is a @Java_Champions run online conference split over four days. Of course, everyone can attend for free, although you have to register in advance. Hope to “see” you there.

When building @springboot applications on JDK 21 or newer Compiler warnings are produced because Mockito is self-attaching to the JVM instead of being registered as an agent explicitly. Does anyone know if there are plans to address this within the parent POM or in any other way?

After upgrading to #SpringBoot 3.4 and using the new webjars-locator-lite our internal WebJar package wasn't working any more. I wrote a short post about why that happened and what you have to do to fix that: innoq.com/en/blog/2024/1…

@bellsoftware are there any concrete plans for providing an arm64 version of the liberica-runtime-container?

And there it goes, our @renovatebot just opened the MRs for updating @springboot to 3.3.5 on my three services.

Opening X is hard when everyone posts photos from #Devoxx and I miss it due to being sick :'( Have lots of fun everyone.

@pedromsantos at our code kata session during this year's SoCraTes you showed some slides about hexagonal architecture. Can they be found somewhere online? I'm interested in the one showing the package differences between layers/hexagonal.

Ich habe letzte Woche auf der @bedcon über #ollama und #SpringAI gesprochen und dabei viel Live auf der Bühne gezeigt. Wer nicht dabei war oder noch einmal auf die Folien schauen möchte, findet diese jetzt unter innoq.com/de/talks/2024/… zum Download.

@dchuyko @bellsoftware Thanks. Any chance that @sdkman_ ships the latest version?

@michaelvitz @bellsoftware You need NIK 23.1.4+3 indeed. It is available on the website bell-sw.com/pages/download…

@bellsoftware I installed Liberica NIK via sdkman (23.1.4.r21-nik) which resulted in 23.1.4+1. When trying to build a spring boot native image, I stumbled upon github.com/oracle/graal/i… Is this error known, and why didn't I get 23.1.4+3 when installing via sdkman?

@bmarwell Maybe it's because I'm old, but I, personally, could never be convinced why XML at that place is so bad that we need another alternative. Yes, it has some more syntax with tags, but I don't see that this reduces readability so much.

Opinion? I love abbreviated XML and hocon already!!

Danke für die schönen Gespräche und die aktive Teilnahme bei meinem Talk zu den Neuerungen von #java 23 beim #JavaForumNord. Auch wenn es das JDK in der finalen Version erst nächste Woche gibt, könnt ihr meine Slides jetzt auf innoq.com/de/talks/2024/… finden.

I'm sure I dreamed about annotations on record components. In other words: tried a tool, found a bug, and now I'm lost in a rabbit hole.
