🎉 We passed 1000 contributors on @quarkusio! This is more than a number; it’s a reflection of everyone who opened issues, shared knowledge, and championed Quarkus across the globe 🌍. Thank you to all who made this possible! Let’s keep growing together—your contributions matter, and I'm excited for us to welcome more to bring developer joy. 🚀💪
I for one believe use of genAI is a great enabler but seeing all the BS about how it will solve all problems in software development it's time to remind how there is no silver bullet when it comes to software development.
The No Silver Bullet article from 1986 covers AI and expert systems and as far as I can see its fundemental aeguments still holds true here almost 40 years later.

Come at me!
'A few highlights in Quarkusio that bring joy to developers:
- Enhanced Exception Context: Detailed exception context with code snippets and line numbers displayed in the terminal, error page, and Dev UI.
- Automatic Debug Port Reassignment: Quarkus automatically finds a free port in case of conflict, eliminating the need for manual adjustment. Works with vscode and IntelliJ IDEA Attach feature.
- Devmode log control: Press 'j' to toggle global log levels or use Dev UI for precise control.'
Llama 3.1 looks awesome but I'm really getting tired of every new release they put it out as if it's opensource.
It is source available with specific use case restrictions aka a proprtitary license.
What a day ComonHaus foundation being launched, Hibernate is moving to that foundation and I'm happy to announce JBang is also part of the founding projects.
A good day for Open Source!
mima the maven resolver cli you didn't knew you needed!
Lets you do all sorts of queries and analysis of maven artifacts.
list, resolve, verify, graph, etc. even has a repl.
Easy to try out:
jbang app install mima@maveniverse
Great work by https://www.cstamas.org/
I made https://github.com/jupyter-java when I realised with #jbang I could run any of the various Java based Jupyter Notebooks anywhere.
This weekend Java Advent posted my article on the matter - give it a look and join the conversation.

TIL: https://buff.ly/3FM3PTI makes a "notebook" rendering of your .jsh file with graphs, mermaid and latex support.
Trivial to use with jbang:
jbang jnotebook@maxandersen render --no-optimize %{https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cyrilou242/jnotebook/main/doc/book.jsh} out.html
Made a little utility to easily get a cli access to (almost) any JDBC backed database.
jbang app install jdbc@maxandersen
Now run jdbc <jdbcurl> and it fetches latest driver from maven and use sqlline to run it.
Works with postgres,mysql,mariadb,sqllite,oracle, and more
