My top performing post this year was about #RichFaces. Fast forward and we're performing more #RichFaces -> #PrimeFaces migrations using #OpenRewrite and #AI, and also upgrading apps to the most recent, secure versions of #JarkartaEE, #Spring (Boot), and #Java without completely rewriting the app.

Just finished my first weekly review in over a month... I suppose "weekly" isn't really accurate at this point, but I'm happy to get back on the bandwagon. I have to block off time or else it just doesn't happen. It turns out I'm not behind on as many projects as I thought.. that was a relief.

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.

I was going to post about this myself, but this is pretty much what I was going to say!
Survival isn’t about holding on—it’s about understanding your brain. 🧠
@arthurdoler.com's inspiring keynote at #dev2next, Survival Under Fire, showed how to stay whole during adversity and prepare for the next challenge.
