At #DevoxxMA, I'm staying in the same hotel where the conference is hosted. I can literally get from my room to a talk in 3 minutes. It is SO convenient, I love it. ❤️

Come to my talk at #DevoxxMA this afternoon to hear me talk about concurrency in #Java, and how #VirtualThreads, #StructuredConcurrency and #ScopedValues improve the way we write concurrent code. Join me at 16:30 in the 'Mimosa 2' room!

In his #DevoxxMA keynote, @stephanjanssen.be mentioned a promising task management tool called Backlog.md. It can turn any Git repo into a self-contained project board using Markdown only. It also has a web UI and first-class support for coding agents. Gonna give this a try for my next side project.

TFW you're about to do a conference talk at a major tech event on structured concurrency, and you discover that the feature has *just* been updated for #Java 26. 😬 openjdk.org/jeps/525 #DevoxxMA

To be fair it is a lot of 🚶at the airport as well 🤭

Excited to be on my way to my very first #DevoxxMA! Current mode of transportation: 🚶. Upcoming: 🚌 - 🚝 - ✈️ - 🚕. #Java

My favourite #Java conference has just started - @brianvermeer.nl and @bjschrijver.dev are kicking off the 22nd edition of #JFall!

I'm happy to return to @jfokus.se this February with a Deep-Dive talk on virtual threads, structured concurrency and scoped values in #Java! I love the Norse Mythology-themed speaker photos that @matkar.bsky.social and his committee colleagues came up with. 🏰😀

Happy birthday @tomcools.be! 🥳

I was so looking forward to @baselone.bsky.social this week, but sadly I had to cancel at the very last minute due to unforeseen circumstances. 😥 I'm so sorry. Wishing my #Java friends a great conference, hope to be back in Basel next year!

If we just treat the work of the LLMs like the work of that one notorious coworker we all have, we should be fine. 🤷

Exciting to see Oracle ACEs among the speakers at #BaselOne , happening October 15–16! 👏 Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from leading experts in the tech community and stay updated on the latest trends. 💡 🔗 baselone.org/en/baselone-home/ @hanno.codes @patbaumgartner.com @ixchelruiz.bsky.social

I'm entering my second year as an Oracle ACE Pro! ♠️ Honoured to be recognised once again, and looking forward to a new year of community contributions. @oracleace.bsky.social #Java

#jspring 2025 has been kicked off by @bjschrijver.dev and @brianvermeer.nl! Almost 800 developers are here in Utrecht today for a day filled to the brim with #Java content. 🙂

After @jcon.one had ended (thanks to @richard.fichtner.dev ‬ and team for an amazing event!) I was ready to sit in a corner and cry my eyes out. But then I found a brand-new edition of Java Magazine on my doormat. 🤩 What a perfect way to counter the post-conference blues!

Why *type* the words “public static void main”, when you can also *sing* them? At #JCON, @maritvandijk.bsky.social and me will host a talk-slash-pop-quiz using 18 songs that will work with “public static void main” as the lyrics. Come join this very interactive musical talk at 12:55 in Cinema 6! 🎸🎤

Just checked into my hotel for @jcon.one, but I’m having a bit of trouble getting into my room. 🤓 #JCON

Sadly I couldn't make it to @devoxx.uk this year. Wishing my #Java friends a wonderful time at this excellent event! ☕🇬🇧

Fun fact: my (very talented) wife drew that picture! 🤩❤️ #Java #StructuredConcurrency #ScopedValues

@mthmulders.bsky.social is delivering his brand-new talk “No slides, just code: live coding with an intern on stage” by demonstrating GitHub Copilot Workspace at the @apeldoornjug.bsky.social. Vibe coding alert! 😉

Do you like listening to podcasts? Then you're in luck, because today we selected 6 podcast episodes for you to enjoy, featuring our Oracle ACEs ♠️ 👉 blogs.oracle.com/ace/post/apr... @kaidonato.bsky.social @moreaux-louis.bsky.social @cafedatabase.com @hanno.codes #OracleACE

Tomorrow I'll share the stage at @apeldoornjug.bsky.social with my good friend and fellow Java Champion @mthmulders.bsky.social. The topic? The future of software engineering with #Java - we'll cover Github Copilot Workspace, structured concurrency and scoped values. Hope to see you there!

Eager to discover #GitHub #Copilot #Workspace? Or prefer to learn #Structured #Concurrency and #Scoped #Values in #Java? Either way, next Thursday is your chance: join @hanno.codes and myself at the @apeldoornjug.bsky.social. I'm looking forward to seeing you there!

Had burritos, swapped culture stories, and ended up singing “Stairway to Heaven” with a room full of Java devs. Not your average @jugnoord.bsky.social night. Shout-out to @rijosam.com & @hanno.codes for the laughs, lessons, and live music. 💙🎸 #JUGNoord #Java #DevLife #SoftSkills

Thanks to all #JavaLand attendees who were at my #JakartaEE Formula 1-themed live-coding Deep Dive! 🏎️ The code is at github.com/hannotify/gr... and the slides are at hanno.codes/slides/from-.... I had a blast! 😀

Adam Bien is doing a great job refreshing everyone’s memories in his keynote on the 30-year history of #Java. #JavaLand @adambien.blog

✅ Packing a suitcase... ✅ Going through my closet for any #Java-themed T-shirts... ✅ Doing some last-minute changes to my talk's slide deck... That can only mean one thing: it is almost time for @javaland.bsky.social! 🥳 Will I see you there?

Looking forward to premiering my new talk "From Zero to Secured: Live-Coding a Full-Stack Jakarta EE REST App with MicroProfile and JWT Authentication" at @javaland.bsky.social next week! #Java #Community #Jatumba my.doag.org/events/javal...
