JavaOne is over, the real value for me was the hallway track.
Talking to the people who build Java. Hearing how things actually work and where things are going. You don’t get that online.

Big thanks to Sharat Chander, Chad Arimura and the whole DevRel team.

I gave two talks on the Java ecosystem and showed how tools like OpenRewrite, Vaadin and EclipseStore help you move forward.

Next chance to continue these conversations:

Let's talk about #Java's checked exceptions - smartly. Not whether we should have them (that ship has sailed) but where the friction comes from and what could be done to reduce it:

Lazily initializing fields in #Java is error-prone and undermines constant-folding. JDK 26 comes with JEP 526, which previews `LazyConstant` - the remedy to this malady.

More details in Inside Java Newscast #106 - join me for the premiere tomorrow morning, 0700 UTC:
