When you have a 35min drive to a client and a podcast you love comes with a guest you like and the episode duration is the perfect. 🤩 Great talk Elias Nogueira 🇧🇷🇳🇱 and Jim Grisanzio. 😊 Made my morning.

Diana 🦪🔜 Dreamforce SF It's moved my career in significantly positive directions. #DevRel as an initiative REQUIRES repeatable f2f engagements. You can't build TRUSTED "relation(ship)s" purely online. And, if you're not visible you're invisible to your community if you're mostly behind a screen.

I had the privilege to attend this talk by Tom Cools today. It was magnificent - the most inspiring talk I’ve seen in a long time. Tech conferences, be advised: Tom’s talks are keynote material. 🤩

This goes for everything, from performance to frameworks to architectures. Stay curious, folks! 😊 don't just judge the decisions of others without asking the "why?". The "why" should be part of your documentation. Arc42 covers this pretty nicely. arc42.org/overview

Just got my feedback from JavaZone, and I’m incredibly grateful! 💚 With 43 ratings, my talk scored high for enjoyment (4.9/5) and usefulness (4.8/5). So glad it resonated with so many! Loved hearing: “Perhaps the most important talk of today.” 🥰

This year Devoxx, the amazing Sharat Chander #Harris2024 | 🟧🟦 and I will host a BoF on how the Java Community can be life-changing. 🤩 While we got some examples of how people have been #MovedByJava and how community helps with this, we'd love to hear your stories! So join us. 🍫 included 😉

Siva Yes, but you'll still need solid coding skills to understand what was generated and to solve problems caused by vague specs leading to vague AI code. Don't ask me how I know ;-)
