Great Scott! ⚡️ The AI apocalypse is here, and it brought unit tests. At #Devnexus, @jbaru.ch shows how tests, prompts, and specs can outsmart the machines (and save your roadmap). devnexus.com/events/back-... Wild demos. Good tests. Terrible puns. Don’t miss it! 🎟️ Get tickets at devnexus.com

hey @sharatchander.bsky.social, @ammbra1508.bsky.social told me to complain to you, so I do. #JavaOne CFP form is terrible, horrible, and we hate it, and you should use @sessionize.com instead, and every potential speaker agrees with me. That's the post.

Will we wear the horns on stage? Who knows...

#VerboseMode at @baselone.bsky.social @jbaru.ch hosting Simon Martinelli on full-stack development. www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFZa...

@kevindubois.com with @jbaru.ch #verbosemode live from @baselone.bsky.social

Thanks to @jbaru.ch for chatting with me about #TODOs at #dev2next for #VerboseMode. Great discussion! You can catch the short interview here: www.youtube.com/live/QSqV0zi....

Thanks @jbaru.ch for having me live on #VerboseMode at @dev2next.bsky.social yesterday to talk about @quarkus.io and #spring! www.youtube.com/live/8wM4uiS...

Was fun to chat here at @dev2next.bsky.social with Baruch @jbaru.ch from TuxCare on #VerboseMode about TDD, AI, and JitterTed's TDD Game (tdd.cards) #TDD #dev2next View it here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6W...

Another great talk with 2 rockstar speaker @jbaru.ch and @gamussa.dev !!

It's today!

This is going to be fun – 100% livecoding talk with two speakers, what can possibly go wrong.

This is huge for #Embabel!

#LangChain4j 1.1.0 is out! 🎉 This release includes the next batch of RC1 modules, along with some great new features! github.com/langchain4j/...

What a coincidence, getting ready for @jbaru.ch and @gamussa.dev now at #DevoxxPL

Software design documents: * write once * read maybe once @jbaru.ch #DevoxxPoland

@jbaru.ch talks about the big issue with quality and correctness of code written by AI, and suggests to fix by writing tests but not by LLMs, but with #Cucumber. Do you agree? #DevoxxPL #AI #LLM #BDD #Gherkin #tessl

Learn some #springai and @langchain4j.dev today's @nljug.bsky.social #JSpring with @jbaru.ch and yours truly

It was fun! #VerboseMode comes to a Java conference near you!

Enjoyed the closing keynote at @geecon.bsky.social by @jbaru.ch and Leonid Igolnik. They tried to envision an "enterprise" version of vibe coding (that's not how they worded it 🙂) Though futuristic, it came out rather convincing speaking.jbaru.ch/DVCzoZ/back-...

Saw @jbaru.ch on technical enshittification at @jcon.one. Why is software bloated & stagnant? Too little coding time, constant interruptions, artificial deadlines, and technical debt. The remedy? Tight feedback loops, fewer distractions, and writing maintainable code for the future you.

Hey #jcon2025, the video for my talk about technical #enshittification is already up! As usual, head to speaking.jbaru.ch for the slides, all the links, and the video! Thanks for the excellent wi-fi, @jcon.one!

Where is @jbaru.ch in the world - 2025 spring conference season edition: www.linkedin.com/posts/jbaruc... (Spoiler - tons of good stuff with @gamussa.dev)

Starting @jcon.one with @jbaru.ch and that's how it should start ;)

Hiring alert: I'm looking for two Senior Developer Advocates at TuxCare—one for #PHP, one for #JavaScript/#frontend/#npm/#angular. These are real #DevRel roles: ecosystem leadership, SecureChain integrations, supply chain trust. Remote! Details: PHP: wrkbl.ink/aUyoh1c Frontend: wrkbl.ink/c5Wcfks

We’re going to close out @geecon.bsky.social with a bang. Leonid Igolnik and I will tackle the intent-to-prompt chasm and how to align AI and expertise in our "Intent Integrity: Aligning Intent, Expertise, and AI" keynote. It’s not about better prompts — it’s about knowing what shouldn’t change.

𝘈𝘯 𝘦𝘹𝘤𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘈𝘐 𝘥𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘭𝘰𝘱𝘦𝘳 𝘢𝘥𝘷𝘰𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘦 @jbaru.ch, and 𝘢 𝘤𝘺𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘰𝘳 𝘦𝘯𝘨𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘢𝘨𝘦𝘳, Leonid Igolnik, take the stage to debate whether AI-driven development is finally ready for prime time or just another way to get things wrong.

Three hours of vibecoding awesome LLM stuff using @langchain4j.dev and @spring.io AI at @devoxx.fr It was fun!

New Job announcement! I have joined @tuxcare.bsky.social as Head of #DevRel! 🎉 (Yes, that means I now officially care for tuxes 🐧 and developers in equal measure.) Read about it all here: www.linkedin.com/posts/jbaruc...

Hey #javaland and @javaland.bsky.social, the video of my yesterday's Technical #enshittification is up! Enjoy the horrorshow and tag your friends and colleagues who would relate! speaking.jbaru.ch/mCW40H/techn...

Pretty sure @maaikees.bsky.social and a lot of my testing friends would like @jbaru.ch‘s talk at #JavaLand. „Everything is getting worse. Bugs, bugs are everywhere“

@jbaru.ch at #JavaLand: „AI can generate crappy code much faster than humans.“

@jbaru.ch at #JavaLand “Product Management is mostly guesswork”

@jbaru.ch at #Javaland on how to fix some broken things in IT.

🎤 We're pleased to welcome Baruch Sadogursky to #AIbytheBay. From early Java & DevOps to leading DevRel at JFrog through a $6B IPO — @jbaru.ch is a Java Champion, CNCF Ambassador, & co-author of Liquid Software. Always a highlight. 🚀

🚀 Excited to welcome @jbaru.ch & @gamussa.dev to AI-fokus 2025 with "RoboCoders: Judgment Day – AI IDEs Face Off" ⚡ Can AI-powered IDEs handle coding end-to-end? In this live battle, we put them to the test! 🎟 Early Bird tix until April 1—Register now! www.jfokus.se/ai-fokus/reg...

Every time I fly, I always pick a window seat. I stare out of it and watch the world go by. We live in such a beautiful world. It’s big enough for all of us.

Prefer clear code over clever code. Don't mistake terse for concise. Terse code is short, cryptic, clever, and is often error prone. Concise code is clear, simple, and easy to understand and change.

A lot of companies are using AI to "pretend" to be human...and these short-term benefits are leading to long-term risks. ⚠️ In my NEW VIDEO I dig into what being "authentic" means in the age of AI..for your content, communities, social + more.

Come to hear me rant how everything is terrible. I know you feel me.

Do you know all 97 Things you need to know about Java? OK, there might be more than 97 Things. But in this video, you can learn half a dozen things you should know youtu.be/RzaNJzz5jW8?...

Is "LLMsplaining" a thing already, or can I take credit for the term?
