💖 Today marks 30 years of #Java! Three decades of “aha!” moments, groundbreaking features, and code that changed the world. Let’s celebrate every line we’ve written! 🎉 #Java30withIntelliJIDEA jb.gg/java30

Java turns 30!

Happy Birthday, Java! With love from JetBrains.

@intellijidea.com's splash screen today and for the whole week is celebrating something special! जन्मदिन की बधाई, जावा! (Happy Birthday, Java!) How would you wish Java a Happy Birthday in your native language? #Java30 #JavaBirthday @java-champions.bsky.social

#JavaJokeOfTheDay When you scroll past: @Validated @Transactional @SomeThrows @Slf4j @GettingOutOfHand @ISwearThereIsAClassHereSomewhere And find: public void aMethod() { .. } No XML. No boilerplate. It just works. Annotations are Java’s spell book. #JavaDukeShortStories

Tell me you are using @IntelliJIDEA, without saying so 😉 I'll start: I try to use Alt+Enter (in vain) while using other applications, such as, Google docs.

#JavaJokeOfTheDay Some Java methods be like: validateUserInputAndSanitizeIfRequiredThenProceedToNextStepUnlessCancelled(); By the time you finish reading the method name, your IDE has already indexed the whole project. #JavaDukeShortStories #MadeForEachOther ;)

AI might write code. New frameworks might trend every month. But you can’t automate community — real people & friendships, JUG meetups, learning from each other, lots of fun and open-source magic. Java’s true power = people. Always has been. Always will be ❤️ @DelhiJUG @VikasMalik @ChhavnishMittal

Join us tomorrow for an in-person meetup, @Nagarro Gurgaon, and learn from the amazing leaders - @venkats.bsky.social and Vikas Malik. We have Coke, Pizza, Samosa and Kulfi too! Yay! Meetup Details: www.meetup.com/delhi-ncr-ju...

How is this: #JavaJokeOfTheDay Generics in Java: <T extends Comparable<T>> Looks like XML, acts like safety net. Safety never looked so... pointy. #JavaDukeShortStories

#JavaJokeOfTheDay What’s Java’s Voldemort? null. Say it once. Debug forever. #JavaDukeShortStories

#JavaJokeOfTheDay Random dev: “Two versions a year? Java’s moving too fast!” Java: “You mocked me for being slow. Now you want training wheels?” Pick a lane — or stick around. Try the new features sooner… you’ll love it 💕. #JavaDukeShortStories

The large amount of libraries in the Java ecosystem is a blessing, but developers should be careful when adding a dependency. Do risk-assessment, look at quality, maintainability, security,... And especially: keep in mind todays JDK provide lots of stuff that in the past was in external deps only!

Markus Westergren@maswen.bsky.social · last yr.

Dependencies in Java projects are like garden weeds - they multiply quickly if not managed. In enterprise development, we need to prune regularly to prevent duplicate libraries, security risks, and version conflicts that can block Java upgrades. Keep your dependency garden tended! #Java

#JavaJokeOfTheDay Why does Java use static typing? Because assigning "hello" to an int shouldn’t be a runtime jump scare. Java straps on a helmet before riding. Others ride blindfolded, crash, and blame the road. #JavaDukeShortStories

#JavaJokeOfTheDay Why doesn’t Java have operator overloading? Because chaos is not a feature. #JavaDukeShortStories

Check out my blog post on how using Markdown for documentation comments could help the amazing libraries, tools, or frameworks you are creating :) Should you change all existing code documentation to markdown? It depends :) Details in the blog post.

IntelliJ IDEA, a JetBrains IDE@intellijidea.com · last yr.

Time to ditch the old-school tags and embrace Markdown for documentation comments 📄 Head over to this blog post to learn what Markdown is, why it rocks 🪨, and how IntelliJ IDEA has your back! 👇

#JavaJokeOfTheDay Why do some people complain Java needs a ; at the end of a line? Same reason they think pineapple 🍍 ruins pizza — they’re just bored. Java’s busy working on better solutions than your semicolon feelings. 😉 #JavaDukeShortStories

#JavaJokeOfTheDay Why do Java developers use a class literally named Unsafe? Because it gives them raw, unchecked, low-level power. 💥 Sometimes, danger comes with speed. We all do unsafe things in life. At least Java warned us first. 😏 #JavaDukeShortStories

Here’s some #Maven dependency advice: if your source code imports a class then make sure its provider (the JAR file) is explicitly listed as a dependency. DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT rely on the transitive closure of resolved dependencies. If used, declare it. You’ll thank me later.

#EclipseCollections has been in development for 21 years, with 10 years @eclipsefdn.bsky.social. I wrote a book about the library and many lessons I've learned after 35 years of coding. Counting down the next 10 years evolving and growing in OSS w/ #Java. 👍🙏

#JavaJokeOfTheDay What happens when you run 20-year-old Java code? It runs. Simple. Other languages drop support, break things, and call it “progress.” Some age like milk. Java? Like enterprise wine. 🍷 #JavaDukeShortStories
