Sigh, yep, I got pwnd! Thanks for the kind folks who messaged me about this! Will reset all the things.

In general I'm finding finely tune Copilot agents extremely helpful in all sorts of migration scenario!

Still running Spring apps on SQL? 👀 See how to evolve to Azure #CosmosDB with #GitHubCopilot as your migration buddy. 🧠 Live demo + real refactoring examples! 🗓️ Oct 21 | 16:30 UTC (9:30am PST) 🔗 developer.microsoft.com/en-us/reacto...

At #devoxx today? Do stick around for the closing keynote (m.devoxx.com/events/dvbe2...) at 18:50. I know it's late in the day after a long conference but I promise it'll be worth it... Truly!

Hey #java #developers heading to #devoxx next week. As a quick preview of my *Rise of the Rogue Agents* talk (m.devoxx.com/events/dvbe2...), here are two of the little tyrants arguing with each other about dependency upgrades 🔥🤖.

Hi #openjdk and #compiler friends! We're hiring for a Senior Compiler engineer to work on one of the coolest pieces of tech in the world :-) jobs.careers.microsoft.com/global/en/jo...

Using VSCode Copilot to upgrade legacy NodeJS apps which I know nothing about - Let’s gooooooooooooo!

Have you registered for #jdconf 2025? It’s online, it’s free, packed with fun bite-sized sessions : developer.microsoft.com/en-us/reacto... I’ll be speaking in the EMEA track, hosted by the amazing @sandraahlgrimm.bsky.social 👏 Join for some Java, AI, security and more! jdconf.com/agenda.html#...

I’m privileged to be able to travel a fair amount for work. I still weirdly enjoy airports and seeing so many people connect with loved ones, be excited about a destination, or hopeful for a change in their future! The kid currently making faces at me is also pretty entertaining 😂

This is a PSA for folks using old, maintained container images, even though we are targeting the ones we host, this is a good reminder for y’all to check yours! #k8s #java

Secure Your Java Workloads! 🚀 Outdated container images are a risk. Starting June 30, 2025, Microsoft will remove old Azul Zulu for Azure images from MCR. Transition now to the latest, secure Java container images. Learn more: devblogs.microsoft.com/java/deletio...

First major #cat injury - Mando (short for #Mandalorian) has a broken tail, so off to the vet get goes! We like to think it was earned battling the empire this morning…

Always cool to see a book you’re involved with get translated to non English languages! Points goes to folks who can pick which language without using #Ai 😉

Today I ripped out a bunch of weeds in the garden and cut down an invasive species. If this was #linkedin I’d make some analogy to cleaning up #technicaldebt but luckily this isn’t LinkedIn

So what’s the protocol now - post the same post here and on #Mastodon or does that annoy y’all who are on both?

Kiddo is at his first school camp - he’s having a blast and my wife and I have gotten more done around the house in one day than we have in weeks! I never internalised how interrupt driven a typical family day is. Good parallel for having those meeting free days at work so folks can get stuff done!

Will be scoring at my son’s #cricket game tomorrow. Two observations - kids all geared up at age 9 is one of those strange “oh they’re growing up!” moments as parent. The other is that I’m glad I have a Comp Sci degree behind me coz scoring this game is archaic as heck 😂

Was reviewing Porter’s Five forces again with @brunoborges.bsky.social tonight - great trip down memory lane when we applied this to jClarity during its life before acquisition. Recommend using models like this to help reduce uncertainty when you’re in a new domain. Like I was as a first time CEO 🙂

Hey all, on my profile it says my handle is invalid, but I can’t see a a way to edit on my mobile app (iOS) - any ideas before I ask #chatgpt? 😃

Had a #fail in setting up folks for success presenting to a very senior leaders. When reviewing the material, I didn’t see enough concrete conclusions or asks but I hesitated and didn’t postpone it. The presenters did great! But the reaction was muted at best. Hope folks can learn from my mistake 🙂

Thank you and keep them coming folks!

I just submitted two session proposals for #jdconf 2025 🤞What about you @martinelli.ch @marcushellberg.dev @lawrencedlockhart.bsky.social ?

Hey #java people - #microsoft once more will be hosting #jdconf in April 9-10, 2025! If you’re interesting in presenting on your experiences with #ai, #security and #cloud then please do send them through to jdconf.com!

Back to sharing idle short form thoughts 🙂. #genai like #copilot and #chatgpt have enabled me to be a 1-person triage customer support machine. I can take the accountability to front up to customers giving robust feedback *and* 90% of the time give them a path to resolution, and it’s actually fun!

Gosh this platform got real busy all of a sudden. As they say, competition is good 🙂
