Beautiful and concise. @briangoetz.bsky.social thanks you so much for the Class-File API. It's been quite helpful for this library development. github.com/mamba-studio...

Working on new themes for #atlantafx. #javafx #java #ui #ux

Credits to @joemwangi.bsky.social / Mamba Studio for creating this library! Github: github.com/mamba-studio... API documentation: apidia.net/mvn/io.githu...

Yeah. I already saw it... Thanks for this, Joe, and keep up the good work!

Library for fast mapping of Java records to native memory | Discussion

Hello @pminborg.bsky.social. As promised, find the following repository for record to native off heap memory mapping for java 25 and greater. I removed the query, as it resulted to a bit of complexity in code and performance degradation. github.com/mamba-studio...

Thanks to #KenyaJUG and Ian Dancan for a fantastic #JavaConnectKE! Wonderful conversations and excellent presentations. And so much fun presenting #AI with @jakarta.ee NBO ✈️ AMS ✈️ CPH #JakartaEE #EclipseFoundation #Community

SHOCKER! For a simple piece of code like "Array.new(10_000_000) {Object.new}", JRuby 10.1 with JDK 26 and compact object headers uses LESS REAL MEMORY than CRuby 4.0. That's just crazy. Real parallel scaling AND lower memory use?!

Did some more evaluation of GitHub Copilot CLI today and built a nice launcher app for my #GemsFX open source project. The productivity I get out of this surpassed all my expectations. #javafx #java #ui #ux @brunoborges.bsky.social

Many people still judge Java by its 2000-era type system. Historically Java prioritised practical affordances over clean formalism, which caused inconsistencies. Amber and Valhalla are tightening that model, and the type system may look very different in a few years, even better than some languages.

😆😂

@pminborg.bsky.social something cooking on a library! CPU cache makes this run in I think less than a second. No concrete benchmarks yet. Code/Library coming soon.

If you’re involved in peer review, editorial work, or academic integrity, feel free to try CERCA and share it within your network. It's open source & community-driven . The source code is available on GitHub: github.com/lidianycs/ce... Contributions and feedback are very welcome!

This weekend, I've added a new feature on CERCA: Manual Reference Entry. If it cannot read your PDF, you can now paste the reference list directly and proceed with the analysis. It's available for download on SourceForge now. sourceforge.net/projects/cer...

Unfortunately, this is no longer an isolated issue. Last week, reports indicated that NeurIPS, one of the world’s leading AI conferences, accepted papers containing 100+ AI-hallucinated citations. This problem is growing rapidly as generative tools become widespread in academic writing.

I developed CERCA, an open-source tool designed to help reviewers and researchers identify hallucinated or inconsistent references in academic manuscripts. I started this small project after discovering a hallucinated reference citing my own work.

Upcoming features in Java. Pattern Assignment performs unconditional type + shape checks, binding state once, while Constant Patterns enable declarative value matching. Control flow becomes compiler-visible data flow. mail.openjdk.org/pipermail/am...

Live UI coding with #JavaFX! 🎨 Implementing FXML and CSS hot reloading in FxmlKit. Edit, save, and see the results immediately. No more rebuild-restart loops! It only takes one line of code to enable. 🚀 github.com/dlsc-softwar...

Check out #FXMLKit. Another convention-over-configuration framework that removes boilerplate code for loading screens done in #FXML. It is inspired by afterburner.fx but also supports JPro multi-user sessions and dependency injection for nested components. github.com/dlsc-softwar... #javafx

Java will provide 3 types of nullness types: nullable, non-null and unspecified (currently offered). Freedom of choice is key.

First Look at Java Valhalla: Flattening and Memory Alignment of Value Objects. It was great looking at this. More to come on large scale projects. I think once they introduce controlled tearing, it's gonna be epic. open.substack.com/pub/joemwang...

@tvaziri.com, is there any info on exact shots ILM worked on for the movie There Will Be Blood?

This is a complete, valid #Java 25 app. It's powered by JEP 512: Compact Source Files and Instance Main Methods authored by Ron Pressler, Jim Laskey and @gavinbierman.bsky.social. More about JEP 512 👉 openjdk.org/jeps/512 #Java25 #JDK25

Latest java release (Java 25) actually tries to address this. You don't even need to compile the source.

The most evolutionary thing that might happen to Java: Witnesses. The ability to separate behaviour from the type. This could enable operator overloading, collection literals, type conversion, default value initialization, etc. Java is back. youtu.be/Gz7Or9C0TpM?...

the rust playground has a really nice godbolt-like MIR/llvm-IR view (if you click on the "..." next to run) play.rust-lang.org otherwise, -Z dump-mir should also work i think? (rustc-dev-guide.rust-lang.org/mir/debuggin...)

With pattern matching, all advantages of mutability are accessible to immutability too.

💡 Did you know GitHub has a built-in kanban board? It's called GitHub projects. Each card = an issue on a repo, and you can track as many repos as you want. You can also make boards private or public. Cool way to pretend your 50 dead side projects aren't actually dead!

Let’s do virtual threads. Java did it right.
