Had burritos, swapped culture stories, and ended up singing “Stairway to Heaven” with a room full of Java devs. Not your average @jugnoord.bsky.social night. Shout-out to @rijosam.com & @hanno.codes for the laughs, lessons, and live music. 💙🎸 #JUGNoord #Java #DevLife #SoftSkills

Ready for @jugnoord.bsky.social 🤩

Yo @elias-nogueira.bsky.social is on TV at @jugnoord.bsky.social 😅

Unfortunately @elias-nogueira.bsky.social wasn't able to arrive in time by train, so we had to set up a last-minute Teams stream. Fortunately this worked out ok with the open mic in the room, so our participants learned a lot about the Datafaker library and how to test with more confidence using it😎

Andres brought a cute mascot and shared advice on deploying with confidence, making your builds reproducible and legal requirements with SBOM and the SLSA framework 👍

Full room for @andresalmiray.com at our meetup today

Tonight @jugnoord.bsky.social , I've earned a lot of neat facts and figures about #Java garbage collection from @hansolo.eu. Main takeaway: if you don't specify which GC to use, the JVM will pick one. Most likely it's not going to be the best for your workload!

Thanks everyone @jugnoord.bsky.social for joining @bmarwell.de and me to discuss improving your Maven build speed. As promised, you can review the slides at speakerdeck.com/mthmulders/a.... The demo's are on GitHub: github.com/mthmulders/s....

Yesterday evening, @mthmulders.bsky.social and I spoke at #JUG Noord and @hansolo.eu wrote an excellent summary, thank you! 🤩 www.linkedin.com/posts/gerrit...

Come join @hansolo.eu and @mthmulders.bsky.social this evening in Groningen at @jugnoord.bsky.social 👍

Thursday November 14th we'll host a meetup focussed on JVM performance with @hansolo.bsky.social covering the garbage collector in his popular trash talk and @mthmulders.bsky.social helping everyone improve their Maven build speed from 🐌to 🚀! Sign up at www.meetup.com/jug-noord/ev...
