After a long weekend visiting family, it’s time to head home. #JCONUSA25#IBM#TechXchange was great. It’s nice to see #IBM’s renewed focus on (#java) developers. Hopefully I can join again next year! Orlando -> Richmond.
Thanks to @jbaru.ch for chatting with me about #TODOs at #dev2next for #VerboseMode. Great discussion! You can catch the short interview here: www.youtube.com/live/QSqV0zi....
Thanks to everyone who attended my Getting Things Done for Technologists session at #dev2next! Nice, engaged crowd! #gtd Slides: kitomann.com#/sessions/31... :
I'm speaking at www.dev2next.com next week about TODOs. I'd still love to get some other perspectives. Do you add them frequently? Do you remove them? Do you process them? What’s the oldest one you’ve seen? What have you seen LLMs do with TODOs in existing code?
Wow, I'm super impressed with the performance of DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-14B-Q4_0 (reasoning model) running locally on an M1Max MacBook Pro. Using it with #GPT4All. huggingface.co/deepseek-ai/...
Another #gtd weekly review in the can. One thing I do during the weekly review is look at interesting things I wrote down that people mentioned. This week's winner was tailscale.com, which looks like an excellent alternative to VPNs for individuals and small companies. I also installed cline.bot.
Not sure how #java#virtualthreads affect every day development with frameworks like #springboot, #quarkus, #helidon, or #jakartaee? Check out my Services Reloaded session at #JCON USA, part of IBM TechXchange, Oct 6–9 in Orlando, Florida! 👉 Register now: usa.jcon.one/register
Another #gtd weekly review in the can. This time I just did it at home on the deck, taking advantage of the nice weather. Lately I’ve really been enjoying walking during part of it, especially while review projects in #nozbe.
