Some may see a light story. I see many experiments and tests - in fault tolerance, distributed systems, and human nature. The true virtues of great engineers. youtu.be/UAT-eOzeY4M

I'm in this picture (with @piotrprz.bsky.social) and I like it.

Je suis sur cette image (avec @maritvandijk.bsky.social) et j’adore trop ça ! #DevoxxFR

My first in person event this year :-) Let's go #VDT26!

My struggle of selecting talks for @devoxx.uk 2026 is done! It was great task to help with, but also hard. So many great submissions, so few slots...

I recommend: * the speaker * the talk * the conference ;-)

I think all these AI agents should make micro-managers happy. Finally a justified need to provide detailed instructions and check every tiny detail of the outcome. Which is good, maybe they'll get busy there and leave us alone ;-)

Every time I visit this page, I hope the next event could be a regular-regular, in-person meeting :-(

This feature should IMHO be called `I` If you know what I mean :-P

It's a nice feeling to see friendly faces after I upgraded my @intellijidea.com ;-) 👋 @maritvandijk.bsky.social, @antonarhipov.bsky.social and @sivalabs.in

As someone who had to suffer from lack of physical buttons the whole last week, I can only say YES!

Big thanks to JetBrains for extending my @intellijidea.com & co. license under the support for #JavaChampions! This shows the attitude, which I like a lot :-D

Claiming that micro-iterative processes like TDD and refactoring lead to a lack of coherent high-level architecture is a bit like claiming that walking - putting one foot in front of another - leads to you getting lost. Nobody said you can't look where you're going, or that you can't use a map.

"every tool has limitations, and it is important to know them and to plan accordingly" Old but gold, IMHO a must read for us, software engineers, tempted to implement a distributed lock: martin.kleppmann.com/2016/02/08/h...

At some live events you don't get much of a feedback. But boi, even so little can say: job well done. Thank you! 😍

Allez ! Allez ! Allez !

Kolejny #ElastycznyWtorek za nami! (No wypadł w czwartek, sorry) Tym razem było o wykorzystaniu AI do czegoś sensownego, nie tylko generowania obrazków... 📺 bit.ly/49i6nZW Za tydzień i dwa nic nie ma (bo nie dam rady), dajcie znać, o czym teraz chcielibyście usłyszeć. Albo kogo ;-)

Drodzy! Kolejny Elastyczny Wtorek przed nami (akurat wypada w czwartek 13 XI o 13:00), a w nim: jak podłączyć sztuczną inteligencję do #Elasticsearch, żeby odwalała za nas robotę wyciągania i agregacji danych, jeśli akurat nie znamy API. youtu.be/55Q_menCn6U Do zobaczenia!

Modern IDEs are packed with powerful features, but discovering and using them effectively is challenging. 👀 Most developers remember only a few shortcuts – what if your IDE helped you discover its actions like it helps you write code, with completion? ⚡ Learn more in the blog below: jb.gg/x7ue2e

Jak nie deszcz, to mikrofon, no zawsze coś ;-) Ale! Dzięki współpracy szanownej publiczności udało się pokazać co to ten #Elasticsearch | Query Language. youtu.be/4tNxOi271lw

If you know, you know

Już jutro, we wtorek o 13, kolejny Elastyczny Wtorek. Tym razem ES|QL: język, który już znacie, ale jeszcze o tym nie wiecie ;-) youtu.be/4tNxOi271lw

And you? Do you have Java 25 running in prod already? Yesterday's Szczecin Java User Group was a great event :-D

Pierwszy Elastyczny Wtorek za nami! Nagranie z meetupu wirtualnego już się upiekło ;-) Za tydzień bierzemy na warsztat #Elasticsearch Query Language, nowy sposób na wyszukiwanie i przetwarzanie danych w stajni @elastic.co youtu.be/Bspd_E3gmxE

The new Agent Builder from @elastic.co helps not only data analysts, but also developers. Don't know which data to fetch from #Elasticsearch and how? Worry not, just use a coding agent to prototype working solution.

Co to jest ten cały Elastic? O tym będzie we wtorek 28 października, o 13. Dołączyć można przez meetup krakoski: meetup.com/elastic-krak... lub warszafski: meetup.com/pl-PL/elasti...

Edutainment in DevRel is possible. Even for backend technology, like #Java. Proven by @maritvandijk.bsky.social and yours sincerely ;-)

It's 2025 and it's been the second time this week when e-mail delivery simply didn't work. It's the time of LLMs, AI and vibe coding, yet integration and e2e testing is valid like never before.

Good Friday Y'all!

For me Confitura conference was a blast this year. I'm happy it made it back to the community events' map!

Java 25 LTS is here! 🚀 Ready to tap into the latest #Java features? #IntelliJIDEA supports Java 25 from day one. Let’s dive into what’s new and how your IDE has you covered! 👇 #Java25IntelliJIDEA jb.gg/r70wns

You know, folks, I’m a vector search aficionado. But a little part of me dies inside when I see people trying to shoehorn VS into whatever they’re building. Seriously, it's not a silver bullet. I smell RDD: résumé-driven development.

Interested in Running cloud-native #Elasticsearch with ECK? A fresh instalment for you from Eva Ramon: www.elastic.co/search-labs/...

Thinking about adding AI translation to your product? As a non-native English speaker, my advice is: don’t.

Friday marketing...?

What if the Universe is fuelled by melancholia?

Not only can you download JDK EA versions from inside @intellijidea.com - It will also tell you when a new version is available! How to download #Java JDKs from #IntelliJIDEA: www.youtube.com/live/_nt-z0F...

I'm not going to tell you where and when (and who with) I'm going to talk about modern #Java, but there will be signs...

In case you'd like to know a bit about primary and replica shards in #Elasticsearch, what do split, shrink, and clone operations do, here's a piece I crafted for you: www.elastic.co/search-labs/...

1. Grab the attached image. 2. Add it to your Slack workspace as a new emoji, e.g. :pto-police: 3. Use it whenever you see someone from your team violating the PTO/holiday T&C! 4. Profit.

Usually I'm the CLI boi, because many reasons. But I have to admit, the Builds in #docker desktop app are really useful! A handy feature if you need to experiment with... builds ;-)

Have you seen #beautifulPoland?

@mierzeja.bsky.social jak to u Was w sezonie jest z rybami?

Just #beautifulPoland

Sick & tired of fake memes? Here's something authentic for you! With greetings from Piotr the Vowelless ;-) youtu.be/rqcTszs4RR8

Perfection! (with thanks to @devoxxpl.bsky.social for having us, @piotrprz.bsky.social for the lab coat 🥼 and @ddoutsiopoulos.bsky.social for capturing the moment 📷) #DevoxxPL

It's more accurate than ever before

A bit of mistery! #programmingHumor httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/how...

Na zakończenie roku szkolnego zapraszam Was do Katowic na Silesia JUG. Wykład nazywa się "To RAG or not to RAG", zrobimy przegląd tego czym to jest, jak z tego korzystać i czy warto zawsze. Zapisy: www.meetup.com/silesia-jug/...
