What do we need to make 2026 successful Year of Java in the Terminal? A Java CLI testing framework! It is a true coincidence that CLI Assured was born in Dec 2025 Let's code and test Java CLI apps! github.com/l2x6/cli-ass...

Robin Tegg wrote a few reasons to give @jbang.dev and @jreleaser.org a try for your next project. robintegg.com/2026/01/04/j...

Why Java is the real production language for AI. Python is ideal for experiments, but enterprise AI needs predictable concurrency, type safety, and stable runtimes. Java already gives us that, plus native performance through ONNX Runtime and Project Panama. Read: buff.ly/0j6CZ8O #Java #AI #ONNX

The "sanctions" against heads of European NGOs for simply doing there job under the law on #HateSpeech (where much was outsourced by the industry to "trusted flagers" and alike) is another level and is obviously very close to home @noyb.eu. It's urgent to support your local Digital Rights NGOs.

CLI Assured 0.0.1-alpha6 brings some syntactic sugar for fans of Behavior-Driven (Given-When-Then) testing github.com/l2x6/cli-ass...

CLI Assured is a Java DSL for testing Command line programs. New in release 0.0.1-alpha3: • Line assertions do not require caching the whole output, so large stdout won't lead to an OutOfMemoryError • New kinds of assertions for lines, number of bytes, exit codes, etc.

1/9 It sounds like a cliché 🙄, but software features are like the imaginary iceberg. Only a small part is the initial contribution, which is easily visible from a distance. But most of it is the hidden part of the ongoing maintenance.

At this year's @devoxx.com I had a chat with @smarks.bsky.social on ensuring immutable collections when creating a Java record. His suggestion was interesting enough to warrant a new blog post on the subject: codeadventures.littlebluefrog.nl/posts/09-col...

Learned about Wanaku #MCP Router project, a brand new OSS by IBM/RedHat presented by lead developer @orpiske.net at #DevoxxMA Uses Apache Camel for routing 👀 github.com/wanaku-ai/wana…

Hi everyone! An ongoing reorganization at my current employer has prompted me to seek for a new role and would appreciate your support. I'm open to remote (anywhere) and hybrid roles in Switzerland. I have 25+ years experience as a software developer, 8 as devrel www.linkedin.com/posts/aalmir...

Building an AI-Powered PDF Processing Pipeline with #Quarkus, #ApacheCamel, and #LangChain4j by @myfear.com www.the-main-thread.com/p/quarkus-ca...

GPULlama3.java our first GPU-accelerated Java-native LLM inference engine with #TornadoVM has officially been integrated to LangChain4J! Congratulations to the whole team for this achievement! Next week @devoxx.com we will showcase our demos as well as provide a deep dive on @tornadovm.org!

This is a bad day for quarkus-junit4-mock - a module with some empty JUnit4 classes to allow Testcontainers to run without needing to include JUnit4 on the class path. ... and a great day for all users of #Testcontainers 🥳🎉🎊 Kudos @eddumelendez.bsky.social github.com/testcontaine...

Pretty pleasing, even on an issue open for more than 4y, may actually work. Many thanks, @bccrypto.bsky.social! github.com/bcgit/bc-jav...

Those Dependabot/Renovate pull requests could be fake. You should always review the changes before merging them.

I got nerd-sniped over the weekend. Made a java-fmt tool that in addition to make it super easy to format java code, is fast and work from anywhere - it also don't mess with jbang directives. www.jbang.dev/learn/introd...

I blogged! This is the longest article I have ever written, so I hope it can bring more eyes to the fantastic @quarkus.io project! The role of Quarkus in the modern Java ecosystem javapro.io/2025/08/22/t... via @javapromagazin #quarkus #java #framework #innovation

@noybeu versucht das zu ändern - mittels strategischer juristischer Prozesse, aber das sind SEHR dicke Bretter.. 😐

Kontext: - Irland hat (mit Luxemburg) praktisch alle großen Zentralen von #BigTech-Unternehmen - Das Land hat gesamt nur ca 200 Richter. Fälle kosten schnell €100.00+, in meinem Fall bis zu €10 Mio an Prozessriksio. - Praktisch gilt EU-Recht hier nur am Papier. Real durchsetzbar ist es nicht.. 😐

Heute wohl für @noyb.eu im #ZDFheute journal um 21:45 zur Frage wie sich #BigTech in #Irland prächtig vor EU-Gesetzen verstecken - und die Europäische Kommission zuschaut.. 😐 Details zu unseren über 800 #DSGVO - Fällen in ganz Europa auf www.noyb.eu 😊

I needed to set up Keycloak programmatically for my tests and couldn't find a clear guide, so I wrote one! This is a quick, step-by-step tutorial showing how to take full control of Keycloak in your @quarkus.io integration tests. Hope it helps you too! www.orpiske.net/2025/08/prog... #Quarkus #Java

Building an #MCP Server with #Quarkus is a joy. From Quarkus CLI to GitHub Copilot Chat saying "build me an MCP server for <use case>". It just works.

🎉 Exciting news, the first release of the #A2A Java SDK is now available! Check out our blog post to learn how to: 🤖⚡️Create an A2A server agent from a Quarkus LangChain4j AI service ☕️+🐍=🤝 Orchestrate multiple agents in different languages quarkus.io/blog/quarkus...

The room was packed to watch @zinebbendhiba.com present Wanaku #MCP Router!

I have created a thing with #Java that I needed for #Maven and #GraalVM so that I can provide fat-jars (needed for tools that don't do dependency management) that don't behave different in #NativeImage than our normal distributions: github.com/michael-simo... Maybe this is helpful for others, too.

spend waaay too long on realizing that for the new maven central deploy the "token" you generate is not the token you use...there are *two* steps to do. Step 1 is generate username and password Step 2 is the *actual* token

RIP Java Applets. You made Java popular and helped it grow to what it is today. JEP 504: Remove the Applet API has been proposed to target (openjdk.org/jeps/504), so there will be no more applets with the next JDK (JDK 26).

Just published with Pavol Loffay: How @quarkus.io works with @opentelemetry.io on #OpenShift developers.redhat.com/articles/202...

Me and my team are continuing to work on amazing Camel Quarkus and Quarkus CXF. Today, we started doing it under the IBM umbrella. I feel even more commitment for stability and quality. Nothing changes w.r.t. our overall upstream first strategy.
