And now for something completely different #buildinpublic #experiment #seniordeveloper

🎉 The recording is now live on the JUGM YouTube channel ▶️ youtu.be/CvSMhhRse3Q

Every complex system that works has inevitably evolved from a simple system that works. This remains true even in the age of AI. #ai #seniordeveloper #softwaredevelopment

📣 Upcoming #Java User Group München talk "The Evolution of Design Patterns in the Age of AI" 🕖 on Monday 16.03 at 19:00h, 🏠 Hotel Eden-Wolff, Arnulfstraße 4, 80335 München. Our speaker will be Miro Wengner. RSVP 👉 www.meetup.com/java-user-gr... #techtalk #javausergroup #seniordeveloper

💡 Claude Code tip: You can use /simplify skill at any time on any file. You don't have to wait until the last moment to simplify the PR. Just type `Use /simplify on @./MyFile.java` and watch your code becoming better in real time 🎉 #claudecode #ai #seniordeveloper

I hope y'all have good microphones 🎙️ #claudecode #ai #seniordeveloper x.com/trq212/statu...

Claude Code 2.1.63 has a new awesome built-in command /simplify It reviews your changed code over three dimensions: reuse (duplicated logic, extractable patterns), quality (readability, naming, structure), efficiency (unnecessary complexity, redundant ops). Then it automatically fixes those issues!

🎉 The recording of the talk "Design Smarter Grafana Dashboards: A Few Simple Principles That Work" by Dmytro Patserkovskyi has been published on JUG Munich YouTube channel ▶️ youtu.be/-Xjc5MUBPoE #java #techtalk #grafana #jugm

Wow! What a talk it was by Daniel Schwarz about multitude of ways to make your #Java apps faster. The #JUG Munich crowd asked a lot of tough questions which helped us to better understand the intricacies of #performance optimization. The recording will be available on JUGM YouTube channel soon.

📣 Upcoming #Java User Group München talk "Java-Optimierung bis knapp unter Lichtgeschwindigkeit" 🕖 on Monday 09.02 at 19:00h, 🏠 Hotel Eden-Wolff, Arnulfstraße 4, 80335 München. Our speaker will be Daniel Schwarz. RSVP 👉 www.meetup.com/java-user-gr... #techtalk #javausergroup #seniordeveloper

💡#Maven tip 👉 Make your builds more reliable by using Maven wrapper instead of a "plain" Maven. That way every developer working on your project will use the same Maven version and you'll eliminate one cause of non-repeatable builds. 👇

What do you think the most important role of a class is? And why object-oriented appshave two phases of execution? The answer might surprise you 👉 thejavaguy.org/posts/021-th... #java #seniordeveloper #oop #blatantselfpromotion

💡 #ClaudeCode tip 👉 Rules are a stunning feature which will make your CLAUDE.md manageable. Break it down into focused files, apply rules conditionally with glob patterns, and organize them better. For super deep dive read 👉 claude-blog.setec.rs/blog/claude-... #java #ai #tip #seniordeveloper

💡#Maven tip 👉 Does it get on your nerves when you see compiler warnings but the build passes? Simply add -Werror to compilerArgs and then run ./mvnw clean compile. You'll see BUILD FAILURE which now you must fix. Your code will thank you 😁 #java #tip #seniordeveloper

Watch this video from @anthropicai.bsky.social developers to see why skills are the future. Then go and build your first skill in Claude Code www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEvI... #ai #seniordeveloper

💡#Maven tip 👉 Add -Xlint:all to compilerArgs to enable all compiler warnings. Then run ./mvnw clean compile and Java compiler will print all the warnings in your codebase. #java #tip #seniordeveloper

💡 #Maven tip 👉 Add -Xlint:deprecated and -Xlint:unchecked to compilerArgs. Every time you compile you'll get warnings if you use deprecated APIs or unchecked conversion (say, from List to List<String>). Then fix them all! #java #tip #seniordeveloper

You use homebrew and want to quickly upgrade all your formulas, casks, and homebrew itself and to delete its old cached files? Run brew update && brew upgrade && brew cleanup --prune=30 and enjoy 🎉 #homebrew #productivity #tip #seniordeveloper

💡 Type .. in IntelliJ IDEA 2025.3 and you'll see a popup with useful actions. Choose one with up or down arrows and execute with Enter. Try with variables, methods, classes, it works everywhere! #java #intellij #tip #productivity #seniordeveloper

Want to quickly add a line to your CLAUDE.md directly from the Claude Code? Just type # your-custom-rule and CC will add it for you and make that new rule immediately available to the context 💪 #claudecode #tip #ai #seniordeveloper

Did you know that Claude Code has bash mode? Just type ! your-bash-command and it will execute the command and put the output directly into the context. Deterministic invocation and no tokens wasted. Unfortunately tab-style autocomplete is not there yet. #claudecode #ai #tip #seniordeveloper

Don't use Lombok. It's just not worth of additional dependency, mandatory gradle plugin, mandatory IDE plugin, prolonged build times… Use #Java records, add logger explicitly, if you absolutely must then use IDE to create getters and setters (but usually you don't have to and you shouldn't anyway!)

IntelliJ IDEA has built-in code inspections and emits warnings when your code violates them. They are mostly useful, but sometimes you really want the code the way you wrote it. You can put @SuppressWarnings one line above but how do you know which warning you should suppress? 👇

🎉 The dream has finally come true! Thanks to Claude Code we can now write nondeterministic shell scripts: cat MyClass.java | claude -p 'Explain constructor chaining' --output-format text >result.txt #ai #claudecode #seniordeveloper

📣 Upcoming #Java User Group München talk "Erfahrungen aus einem Datapipeline Projekt mit Spring Cloud Data Flow" 🕖 on Monday 24.11 at 19:00h, 🏠 Hotel Eden-Wolff, Arnulfstraße 4. Our speaker will be Sven Lösekann. RSVP 👉 www.meetup.com/java-user-gr... #techtalk #javausergroup #seniordeveloper

💡 If you've installed Claude Code via npm but now want to switch to the native installer just do this: npm uninstall -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code brew install --cask claude-Code All your settings, plugins, MCPs etc. are still going to be there #ai #claudecode #seniordeveloper

Whatever you're doing right now STOP ✋ You owe it to yourself to watch AI Engineering in 76 Minutes (Complete Course/Speedrun!). You'll get up to speed with fundamental AI engineering concepts: foundational models, model selection, prompts, RAG, agents, finetuning… youtu.be/JV3pL1_mn2M

💡 To get really good results from your #AI assistant like Claude Code you must formulate surgically precise request. I often thought I was precise enough but got subpar output. I wasn't. As soon as my request became more specific so did the generated code.

EqualsVerifier 4.2.2 is out! It now supports EnumSets and EnumMaps for enums with only one value. Also, I fixed an error message that referred to Warning.ZERO_FIELDS, which was removed in version 4.0. All in all, very exciting stuff Check it out at github.com/jqno/equalsv... #java

Did you know you can't really install Open JDK? Open JDK is an implementation of the #Java Platform Standard Edition (Java SE) and distributions like Eclipse Temurin, Azul Zulu, Amazon Corretto etc. are binary builds of Open JDK + some vendor specific stuff.

Did you know that #Java 25 brings 18 new features (JEPs), out of which 12 are final, 4 are in Preview state, 1 in Incubator and 1 Experimental? See the full list at openjdk.org/projects/jdk... #Java25 #JDK25

What day is it today? It's #Java 25 release day! Also it's 16.09.2025 so 16+9=25 and the 2025 ends with 25. Coincidence? I don't think so 😀 #JDK25 #Java25
