Die Gruppe bezeichnet sich also als „woke“?!

Aus dem Artikel:

Aber auch: die "Rote Pille". Was bei Keanu Reeves in dem Hollywoodfilm Matrix der Schlüssel zur Erkenntnis in einer von Maschinen beherrschten Welt ist, funktioniert in rechtsextremen Kreisen als Chiffre einer Gruppe, die sich selbst als "aufgewacht" bezeichnet.

Are you still using Flyway?

If not, what are you using to manage and execute database migrations (if at all)?

I'm surprised that there wasn't more noise around the license change of #Liquibase from Apache License 2.0 to Functional Source License (FSL) in Liquibase 5.0.0.

Why I Choose Email Over Messaging

My colleagues and friends know that I prefer to communicate with them via email rather than chat messaging. There are many benefits in such a choice. You may want to consider them and adopt the same stance.

We are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe. signal.org/blog/pdfs/ge...

EqualsVerifier 4.2 is out!

It has prefab values for Java 25's ScopedValues, but the main attraction is that support for #Kotlin delegates is greatly improved! They're now much easier to work with, and also error messages are much clearer.

Check out the details at github.com/jqno/equalsv...

There was collaboration attempt between CMU, Tsinghua, Meta, CWI, Nvidia, Voltron, & SpiralDB. But then lawyers got involved and it fell apart. Everyone released their own format:
→ Meta Nimble: github.com/facebookincu...
→ CWI FastLanes: github.com/cwida/FastLa...
→ SpiralDB Vortex: vortex.dev

Our guide demystifies #OTel logging:
• Log data model
• Integrate existing libs
• Correlate #logs & #traces
• Collector for legacy logs

Logs should be structured & correlated from day one.
