OffHeap 84. DevNexus 2024! (oops, we did it again!)
Yes! So we are back at THE best conference for Java in the US (DevNexus!) to record a live episode! We had Andy and Sascha talk to us about Quantum security and where the world is heading (spoilers, we better address our security before the quantum boogeyman shows up). In all, like all DevNexus episode we also have a GAME! Come play with us as well, and see if you can tell if an AI company is real... or fake! https://www.javaoffheap.com/datadog We thank DataDogHQ for sponsoring this podcast episode DO follow us on twitter @offheap https://www.twitter.com/offheap News: - Commonhaus Foundation (https://www.commonhaus.org/) - XZ Backdoor (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XZ_Utils_backdoor) - Diagram overview of the XZ exploit (https://x.com/fr0gger_/status/1774342248437813525) Conferences: - Spring I/O Barcelona May 30-31 - Community Over Code NA Denver October 7-10 https://communityovercode.org/ - Dev2Next Lone Tree, Colorado Sept 30 — Oct 3, 2024 https://www.dev2next.com/ - JConf.dev - Dallas, Tx - Sept 24 -26 - https://2024.jconf.dev/ Notes: - Quantum Knight (https://www.quantumknight.io/) - Andy, Co-Founder and CEO of Quantum Knight (https://www.linkedin.com/in/andyschwaderer/) - fun fact, he's also the drummer for the NullPointers Java Band - AI Drunk Friend (https://deepai.org/chat/drunk)

OffHeap 83. Happy New Year! (and start dusting that resume)
Hopefully we are all rested and ready to tackle this 2024. There is already a ton going on with AI, but front and center has been the current job market news (it's dire). Even so, when a new door closes, a new (shiny AI-ish) door opens. Here we dive into what it means to be an java developer in this job market (should you learn AI's darling language, python? we ponder), and our collection of tips / tricks to navigate it. In addition we tackled some of the stuff we learned over the holiday, including the One Billion Row Challenge! (an exciting view of where Java is headed and the things it's doing).

OffHeap 81. Is the guilded age of open source over?
ElasticSearch, Akka, Hashicorp, and Red Hat are starting to change their licensing models. What used to be considered open source (Apache, GPL, MIT) is morphing (with an asterisk) for the large open source projects that we know and love. But what does that mean? Is open source over? or are we transitioning to a new reality? Is legislation going to help or hinder (like the EU CRA proposed laws)?

It IS time...and everyone is talking about it! With the new Large Language Models like OpenAI and Github Copilot, and Bard (and all the others), what does it mean for developers?

We are at it again! We went to DevNexus in Atlanta, and we have the WHOLE GANG showing up! It has been great catching up in person and oh boy, there's so much tech to talk about! For this episode we have Brian Fox (@Brian_Fox), CTO of Sonatype talk about the importance of security across the supply chain. With new legislation coming regulating security and software pipelines it is the right time to discuss what is our role as developers in this.

OffHeap 78. Starting the year kicking ON Spring! (tee-hee get it?)
So there it is! We go deep covering the interesting news of Spring Boot 3, and Spring Framework 6... and looking at the BASELINE requirement of Java 17... what does that mean for the industry? Are we now becoming more proactive in upgrading? (or do we still upgrade only when we need to?). This is a great episode where we explore what does it mean to have a high cadence, and what it also means to have our dependencies require an upgrade.

So, someone forgot to click on the "publish" button for December and we have an extra episode queued up! (Oh well) We cover the new virtual conferences coming up for the Year 2023 that are coming up + we dive into the massive tech layoff happening (including of course twitter). We then dive head-first on an ever-relevant question. "If you were to start a new project now, which Java version would you use". Do you stick with 11? Or jump into 17? or try a non-lts with 19? or (gasp), you go to 8? We dive into the pros/cons and what our esteem panel of pundits have to say about it.

OffHeap 76. On license changes and Open Source Software
If you haven't heard, Akka has changed is open source license (from Apache to Commercial). And if you have been using Akka, that's significant! We have seen this happen a couple of times to a lesser extent in cloud products (MongoDB and Elastic comes to mind), but (we think) this is the first time we see a license change in something that's so fundamental as an enterprise integration framework like Akka Join us as we explore the ramifications of this move, both for Lightbend, and for the industry. Does this mean that Open Source and its business models (like paid extended features or tooling, or support contracts) is over? Would Akka be forked? Would it sink or swim? Will Lightbend survive. We don't know all (or any of the answers) but we sure spend time trying to understand what are the possible answers to these questions. https://www.javaoffheap.com/datadog We thank DataDogHQ for sponsoring this podcast episode DO follow us on twitter @offheap https://www.twitter.com/offheap Conferences - JakartaOne LiveStream - Dec 6 - SpringOne - Dec 6 - 8 - jChampions Conf - Jan 19, 20, 23, 24 - Devnexus - Apr 4-6, CFP closes Nov 15 News -Jakarta EE 10: https://blog.payara.fish/whats-new-in-jakarta-ee-10 - Spring Framework 6 RC Available now, GA next month - Spring Boot 3 RC Available now, GA next month - JavaFX 19: https://www.infoworld.com/article/3673888/javafx-19-rich-client-java-platform-arrives.html Discussion - License change Akka https://www.lightbend.com/blog/why-we-are-changing-the-license-for-akka https://flink.apache.org/news/2022/09/08/akka-license-change.html

OffHeap 75. Hey, how about that new Job Offer?
So markets are changing, and we have a crazy two years. FAANG and others are really really looking for new developers, and have been poaching any talent they can grab. Even so, winds seem to be changing and a slowdown looms over the horizon. So in that spirit, we revisit what is it mean to be in the job market today, and we talk about the advice we can give to those that are looking to either jump to a new opportunity or advance their career.

OffHeap 71. Hold on now, you mean I can JIT programs in the Cloud?
Ok, so the fun part about being in the Java Ecosystem is that it's always trying new things, and the interesting new "thing" that seems to be happening is the ability to offload your "JIT" (Just In Time) compilation into the Cloud! We discuss how this changes (or maybe not?) things, but is interesting to see how we are enhancing our regular "code, build, deploy" to have more complex workflows behind-the-scenes that allow you to become "faster", and more performant (and ultimately save some Cloud $) We also comb over the news, with the big NVIDIA / ARM deal falling through, costing around 1.25 billion dollars (insert Dr. Evil theme here) since it was done as a deposit for a successful transaction. Our local curdmudgeon offered his services as an money-holder and arbitrer for future NVidia / ARM contracts!

OffHeap 70. Buy, Sell, Or Skip! Looking at NFTs (forever code, and ransom in Open Source!)
There are times when there's something in tech that starts brewing, and creating huge waves. We are just going through those times with Bitcoins and now the newly created Non-Fungible-Tokens (or NFT for short). If you have been surrounded by "bored apes", or "lucky goats" and wanted to understand what NFTs are (or aren't), then take a listen! In addition we revisit the big npm-libs-colors debacle on which an open source contributor single-handedly sent the javascript world scrambling as he poisoned-pill his own work (what does it mean to rely on open source dependencies from individual contributors?).

OffHeap 69. Ok, so the internet burned down with Log4J.
Hopefully you have had some time to R&R, but if you were in tech around Dec 2020, you heard that there was this massive security incident around Log4j. It affected almost everyone, from large to small companies, and if you work in Java, chances are that you might've to work on it too (and if you haven't, it's a good idea to double-check your code) It has a severity of "10", which is rare, and what makes it hard to ignore. If you want to understand what it was about, and how it got there, then take a listen.

We discuss what it means to have such a big influence in how people get their news, interact with each other, and at what point you can't just say "I don't want to interfere" A very pundit-adept topic, we discuss what could possibly be done to help the issue of misinformation while also balancing the need to be heard. http://www.javaoffheap.com/datadog We thank DataDogHQ for sponsoring this podcast episode DO follow us on twitter @offheap http://www.twitter.com/offheap October 2021 Events: EclipseCon - October 25-28 https://www.eclipsecon.org/2021 Reactive Summit - November 2-3 https://www.reactivesummit.org/ Jakarta One - December 7 https://jakartaone.org/ Jconf.dev - December 8 - 10 https://2021.jconf.dev/ jChampions - January 2022 https://jchampionsconf.com/ DevNexus - April 2022 https://devnexus.com/ News: JReleaser 0.7.0 https://foojay.io/today/jreleaser-0-7-0-released/ JDK 18 Shaping Up (JEP 408) https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/408 Jakarta EE 10 Release Update https://eclipse-ee4j.github.io/jakartaee-platform/jakartaee10/JakartaEE10ReleasePlan Eclipse Ide 2021-09 Supports JDK 17 https://www.infoq.com/news/2021/10/eclipse-ide-java-17/?topicPageSponsorship=ef2f32ea-8615-496e-9ac7-58dffbfe1766 Raspberry Pi price increase https://uk.pcmag.com/old-desktop-pcs/136394/raspberry-pi-suffers-first-ever-price-increase Future of Play Framework https://www.lightbend.com/blog/on-the-future-of-play-framework Facebook Change to Metaverse https://www.theverge.com/2021/10/19/22735612/facebook-change-company-name-metaverse

OffHeap 66. Faster LTS releases? And A new Java license you say? How...peculiar

OffHeap 66. Faster LTS releases? And A new Java license you say? How...peculiar
So aside from being all giddy about Java 17 LTS release, we take now a deep dive on the changes that Oracle announced on their release schedule and Licensing. WANL (We are not Lawyers) but that didn't stop us from discussing what could it mean, and where would it go! Faster LTS, we are onboard. It's fun to be able to jump from LTS to LTS, but what does that mean for older releases and maintainability (as Oracle longstanding policy is to sunset the "oldest" of LTS when a new one comes out). We see the interesting dynamics on this with the new "Oracle No Fee Terms and Conditions", and what does that mean for Big Red's plan for our favorite programming language. In all, an interesting episode to pay attention to (and to know what's important). Like all Licenses, do talk to a real lawyer before adopting a new license (we really are just code monkeys that managed to wrestle a microphone). Or go with another Java open source binary provider on the standard licenses (Like Adoptium!) http://www.javaoffheap.com/datadog We thank DataDogHQ for sponsoring this podcast episode DO follow us on twitter @offheap http://www.twitter.com/offheap Events: SpringOne Videos Available https://springone.io/ EclipseCon - October 25-28 https://www.eclipsecon.org/2021 Jakarta One - December 7 https://jakartaone.org/ Jconf.dev - December 8 - 10 https://2021.jconf.dev/ The new Dev.java https://dev.java/ FooJay.io https://foojay.io/ Intellij Updates https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/whatsnew/ Netbeans 12.5 Released https://netbeans.apache.org/download/nb125/index.html Reactive Summit - November 2-3 https://www.reactivesummit.org/ Oracle Developer Live - October 26-27 https://developer.oracle.com/developer-live/java-innovations-sep-2021/ jChampions - January 2022 https://jchampionsconf.com/ DevNexus - April 2022 https://devnexus.org/ Java Is Still Free! https://medium.com/@javachampions/java-is-still-free-3-0-0-ocrt-2021-bca75c88d23b Oracle Java 17 Licenses https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/jdk-faqs.html

OffHeap 64. Autobots...Rollout to the Bar!
Color me jealous! Most of the OffHeap crew (excepting me, Freddy) went back to our roots, and recorded Java Off Heap at the RoundHouse! (The local bar, where Episode 1 was recorded!). It was a great opportunity to be mostly zoom-less and let the conversation flow whenever it wants to flow! In addition we got Cedric Hurst (@divideby0) to join us there! In all an interesting evening, with libations, Boston Dynamics Acquisition, a deep discussion on the "Right to Repair", and the implications of GitHub Copilot (the auto-filler AI-powered, FOSS trained helper) on this field! http://www.javaoffheap.com/datadog We thank DataDogHQ for sponsoring this podcast episode DO follow us on twitter @offheap http://www.twitter.com/offheap JAX London 10/4 - 10/7 (hybrid) https://jaxlondon.com/blog/java-conference/ EclipseCon 10/25 - 10/28 (online) https://www.eclipsecon.org/2021 Jakarta One LiveStream 12/7 (online) https://jakartaone.org/ Jconf.dev (In person) 12/8 - 12/10 https://2021.jconf.dev/ Boston Dynamics Acquisition https://www.bostondynamics.com/hyundai-motor-group-completes-acquisition Microsoft Pentagon contract cancelled https://www.cnn.com/2021/07/06/tech/defense-department-cancels-jedi-contract-amazon-microsoft/index.html Big MS Security Update https://www.cnn.com/2021/07/07/tech/microsoft-security-update/index.html Github Co-Pilot https://twitter.com/kellabyte/status/1411449622288076801?s=21 Ruling on Google Gender Bias lawsuit https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2021-05-27/google-gender-bias-class-action-lawsuit-women?_amp=true Right to Repair - https://petapixel.com/2021/07/07/president-biden-will-order-ftc-to-create-right-to-repair-rules-report/

So new things are happening! Jakarta EE 9.1 was released, GraalVM got to 21.1, and Spring Native is now at 0.10. We also get a new LightBend CEO (what does this mean?), and the favorite developer Copy-Paste Website (StackOverflow) got bought for (insert Dr. Evil voice here) ONE (.8) BILLION DOLLARS. You didn't hear it first here, BUT we sure talk about what does this mean! (Remember ExpertsExchange?) Lastly we dive into a deep discussion on Ransomware and security and how all these things we work everyday can, and are affected by it. Why some companies are keeping up, others are letting security slide, and more importantly, for us as Developers, what kind of role we play on these things. A passionate discussion on which we touch many points and explore our involvement on this field! http://www.javaoffheap.com/datadog We thank DataDogHQ for sponsoring this podcast episode DO follow us on twitter @offheap http://www.twitter.com/offheap GlassFish 6.2 Released https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/ee4j.glassfish/downloads GraalVM 21.1.0 https://www.graalvm.org/release-notes/21_1/ Stackoverflow is acquired https://stackoverflow.blog/2021/06/02/prosus-acquires-stack-overflow/ Meat Packer Cyberattack https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-57318965 Colonial Cyber Attack https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonial_Pipeline_cyber_attack BadB Promotional Cartoon (NOTE!

OffHeap 62. On Stallman, Apple and Basecamp
Right, there were a good tricle of tech news like the release of Scala 3, and that now Microsoft is part of the OpenJDK (hm… we wonder if the JClarity acquision had anything to do w/that ;). But the Internet was rocked by a big tidal wave of D&I avoidance, Social pressure (but some would say Cancel Culture?) and selective historical facts. In that we dive to explore what has dominated the tech twitter feeds, facebook post, and essentially comment on the unbelievebable nuclear explosion (implosion in the case of Basecamp) that just happened. With the advent of Basecamp’s new policy (and the pyramid of hate), and the follow-up en-masse resignations, then Apple’s offer, twice rescinded to Antonio Garcia Martinez, to finally the Electronic Frontier Foundation inclusion of Dr. Stallman back on the board (on which, his past is either forgiven, or forgotten) this episode dives into how it got to here, and we piece together how these bungled-up situation blew up in the twittersphere Come take a listen and tour with us the reality of being in tech today!

OffHeap 61. Return of the APIs (Supreme Court Ruling on Oracle v Google)
Ok, 60 episodes ago, back when were were young and innocent, we started this podcast with coverage on the copyrightability of APIs. There were twist...there were turns! And a ton of nail-biting moments, but, finally it seems that the Supreme Court made a ruling (that APIs are not copyrightable) In this episode we cover the timeline, the ruling, and the possible effects it means for all of us developers, starting on the original days of Sun, and then going all the way to April 5th. We are not lawyers but pundits, and as such, we engage in punditry as we dissect what the Supreme Court ruling said (is it narrow? overarching? did they get the analogy right?) Would this turn out to be a George-Lucas moment where there will be more litigation? Episode VII, VIII or IX? or a Jar-Jar Binks moment? We don't know, but we sure be covering them if they happen in our watch! http://www.javaoffheap.com/datadog We thank DataDogHQ for sponsoring this podcast episode DO follow us on twitter @offheap http://www.twitter.com/offheap Jakarta EE 9.1 - May https://blogs.eclipse.org/post/mike-milinkovich/eclipse-jetty-11-supports-big-bang GlassFish 6.1.0 - Aim for JDK 16: (?) https://arjan-tijms.omnifaces.org/2021/04/glassfish-now-runs-on-jdk-16.html JetBrains IntelliJ IDE 2021.1: (?) https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/whatsnew/ JDK 17 Early Releases and Timeline: https://openjdk.java.net/projects/jdk/17/ Oracle releases R2DBC driver https://r2dbc.io/drivers/ Dell will spin off VMware https://www.businessinsider.com/dell-to-spin-off-vmware-stake-2021-4 Oracle v Google FINALLY! https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/20pdf/18-956_d18f.pdf

OffHeap 60. JDK 16, Spring Native, Micronaut, Microprofile and GraalVM have new releases! Author tags, And Companies blaming Interns (boo!)
Hey y'all, well, this episode we dive into tons of fun stuff. There are new toys w/JDK 16, Spring Native and Graal. Essentially, it's a fun time to play with Native and new JDK 16 features (Records are mainstream!). And in a one-two punch, Spring Native release of 0.9, and Graal news of adopting truffle makes the ideal of adopting native images for your Java builds not far-fetched. It might have still some rough edges, but oh my, for some projects, it went from being painful, to a non-issue. So yeah. Millisecond startup times coming up! Micronaut is also out with 2.4.0, which we think is actually healthy! (we worried for a second or two). And Microprofile also has a release, with its LRA (and SAGA! pattern). We really wished SAGA was an acronym In addition some interesting consolidation happening with Crowdstrike buying Humio, and Okta acquiring Auth0. Interesting moves in security and authentication to say the least. We see how deep SolarWinds go with blaming an intern for their security woes. If that's your strategy, you already lost at the security game (shame!) And lastly, oh my, there is an Outlook vulnerability making its rounds. Important enough to hear (and patch!).

Many things are happening this year. With the official end of the Adobe Flash era, we take a dive on the current landscape including Netbeans, Microprofile 4.0, the alledged Russia Cyber attack of Jetbrains Software, and then into the huge sway that social media platforms have. We dive deeply into how the bans of twitter accounts, hosting providers, and social media tends to shape society, and realize how huge technology is for managing these. We see how it relates to the US's concept of Freedom of speech (and what it / what isn't freedom of speech). An very charged episode with a lot of opinions on technology and censorship.

From having 2 Java releases, to the move of OpenJDK to github and how tech has been changed by the Pandemic we talk about it all. We also see what's coming up on for 2021, including Project Loom (and what does THAT mean for Reactive Programming), new LTS in our hands (Java 17) and Spring 6!

So JFrog made it big! (and we congratulate them!) as they are now a publicly traded company! and because GitHub is paying attention, they are now rolling out Container Registries! (This will help a ton for those in the Docker world) Java 15 is out as well, with all the goodies of a short term cadence (Preview of Sealed Classes, Records, Z Garbage Collector and more!) In addition, have you ever been curious about the JVM Source Code, well, they are finally in GitHub! So go ahead, explore, download, build and play!
