"The secret to consistency is doing things even when you don't want to." — Ana Maria Braga. We never miss a sprint deadline just because we "don't feel like it." Why treat personal goals differently? Make your own projects non-negotiable. 🚀 #DevCareer #Consistency

What do stars have to do with Java? ⚡ Join me and Csilla Szántó to discover how Java evolves from a JEP to a feature in your code. We’ll reveal the connection between stars and Java versions! 🗓 Feb 24 | 6 PM BRT 🔗 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J6Kro5vVJWc #Java #Coding #JCP

Speaking at Devnexus? Boost your impact by joining the Mentorship Hub. Think of it as an "advertised hallway track"—an open space to mentor devs and connect with your audience. Submit your proposal here: 🔗 https://jav.mn/hub-devnexus-mentor #Devnexus #Java #Mentorship #TechCommunity

Want 24GB of RAM for free? My mentee Matheus just launched his blog with a killer guide on leveraging Oracle Cloud's Free Tier. High-value tech tips for your next project, no strings attached. Read it here: https://blog.omatheusmesmo.dev/en/posts/oracle-cloud-free-tier-24gb-ram-free-forever/

"I apply to many jobs, but never get an offer." If that's you, shift your strategy. Public apps = max competition. Start sharing what you know to build: ✅ Visibility ✅ Trust ✅ Reputation Create opportunities before you need them. #Career #SoftwareEngineering #Tech

Where to publish tech content? ✍️ 1️⃣ Own your core: A self-hosted blog gives you control. Platforms change; your domain stays. 2️⃣ Distribute: Use Dev.to, LinkedIn, and Substack to reach different audiences. Control the source, spread the message. 🚀

Should you repeat a talk you’ve already given? Yes. A presentation only becomes truly great after the 3rd or 4th time. Each new audience helps you sharpen your storytelling and refine your examples. Don’t just present once. Connect, adapt, and repurpose.

Excited to announce that I’ll be joining the new FIAP + MIT program, to learn applied AI. This partnership is a huge win for tech education in Brazil. Thank you, FIAP, for leading the way and bringing world-class innovation to us. #MIT #FIAP #Education #Tech
