#aussom release today provides closures and operator overloading language support. There’s now Aussom CLI support on Raspbian aarch64 for Raspberry Pi which includes headless support for JavaFX with Monocle and libglass in a .deb installer. And the first release of the Aussom Graphical REPL! #java

I just stumbled across a job posting which describes the typical interview process as a 5 stage process, 5 individual interviews! How insane is that, where does it end? Hard pass.

This little script was a fun #aussom project. It uses the parallel foreach component along with css styled #javafx API to generate markdown and html documentation from Aussom source code comments. #java

The Java Story is a film that brings together the voices and experiences of the Java community - developers, contributors, and users who've shaped this ecosystem over nearly 30 years. Written by @payaracommunity.bsky.social foojay.io/today/the-ja... #Java #Community

foojay.ioThe Java Story: A Film About All of Us - foojayThe official Java documentary premieres July 17 on YouTube. Watch the trailer, meet the guests, and join the live chat with James Gosling.

I ported Aussom interpreter to C, and what I found was surprising. The Java version overall was faster. What I found is that JIT was providing a lot of performance that simply porting to C couldn’t beat without optimizations.

Brillant, and what I've been saying since vibecoding emerged: "From the bottom: no juniors entering the pipeline, so no new seniors. From the top: existing seniors slowly losing the depth that made them senior. The pipeline is collapsing from both ends simultaneously." (via @spinscale.bsky.social)

andrewmurphy.ioAI didn't kill your junior pipeline. You did | Andrew MurphyAI didn’t kill the junior pipeline; companies did, because someone saw Claude write a for loop and decided that meant they could stop training humans. The result is an industry cheerfully pulling the ...

Aussom-Lang now has support for JavaFX, GTK4, a Java native interface with dynamic Jar loading, and native library interface via Panama. Quite a bit that can be done with it now. #aussom

Crypto isn’t useful for what it was created for and little else, AI is a big joke and 99% hype. Can we get away from these wastes of time/money/energy/environment and get back to the regular work of solving business problems and incremental improvement.

Giving access to SSNs, other data on government employees to non-employees like Musk is a violation of 5 USC 552a, and carries with it a penalty of $1000 per person whose data was accessed. CALL YOUR STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, YOUR SENATORS & CONGRESSPEOPLE. ASK THE ACLU TO FORM A CLASS ACTION SUIT.

Like 98% compute/bandwidth is bare metal. The cloud is great for small projects (costs are low) and highly profitable projects (costs matter less). But it fails projects that need to scale as efficiently as possible. Moving Bluesky to bare metal reduced costs by 10-100x and saved many millions.

Is Bluesky on AWS? https://isitonaws.com/discover?name=bsky.app
