Not sure if this will be an outlier...

New developers will start coding with AI, they won't know the world without AI. Less time spent on learning fundamentals, and they will probably develop others skills.

Currently drafting the Spring Boot 4 / Java 25 migration plan for my current customer. How is your migration plan coming along?

I've been testing with the different milestones and RCs, but now it's time to make it real!

Happens to me every day, luckily I have an unlimited supply of coffee beans.

Heard from a developer today: "I ran out of AI credits and can't continue the task."

It's concerning to see devs can't ship code without AI. Will this become the norm for the next generation?

We're told AI gives us a productivity boost, but maybe we're becoming too dependent.

🎾 Nice combo for 2026!

Spring I/O 2026 will take place the same week as the Barcelona Open Banc Sabadell, one of my favourite weeks of the year as a tennis lover. I never miss the tournament!

If you join Spring I/O, you can also catch some world-class tennis right next door.

Indeed.

And yes, as always, there's an annotation for that, you can use @EnableCobol in your Spring app to have full COBOL support 😅

Just got my first @springio.net submission about COBOL. It ends with "COBOL career is a good career choice".

Here’s your career advice for 2025.
