Today I finally came to play with JetBrains Junie coding agent EAP. I have to say: awesome! www.jetbrains.com/junie/
During yesterday’s @bejug.bsky.social event, I got the idea to create an @intellijidea.com extension that reminds everyone to use mvn verify instead of clean install. Inspired by @andresalmiray.com and @tomcools.be . Here’s a sneak peek:
I didn’t even see VMware there! 😂 (h/t @skpodila.bsky.social)
It is placed very appropriately. One way to win the magic quadrant.
Outlier AI. You are doing it wrong.
Hiring people to post completely nonsenese or copy&pasted issues in reputable open-source repositories - and make maintainers train your AI on it ? not good.
There are 50 such issues in last few days in @airflow repo [1] and counting. More details in [2] […]

"...difficult-to-write unit tests are the canary in the bad interface coal mine" - loved this statement from @kentbeck.bsky.social

There is another use case for
mvn dependency:analyze
It can show you the dependencies you use in your code but have not declared in your pom.xml. This works because you have a transitive dependency on your classpath. Either don't use the dependency or declare it.

I was surprised to count 8. Not too bad, from an European standpoint.
JavaFX is not dead. Cool and underrated. Looks like it boils down now: github.com/rgielen/spri...
Using Spring Boot with Testcontainers?
We've improved support so that your test setup is more lean. `@AutoConfigureTestDatabase` now detects containers and will automatically use that!
If you need to revert to the old behavior, set `replace=Replace.AUTO_CONFIGURED)` on the annotation.
Given you're on Java 21+ - not really, imo
I created a small demo. JavaFX + Spring Boot redux:

/cc @johanvos.bsky.social feedback appreciated!
OK, gave it a quick try. Not sure whether the CommandLineRunner impl has to be refinded, but: Works!

which is still the pattern I follow for the javafx-weaver examples. That'd bcome muuuuuch more easier then https://github.com/rgielen/javafx-weaver/tree/master/samples/springboot-sample
Nice one! So it's up to the developer to create the primary stage then, right? Or am I missing something?
Welcome back, we kept your seat warm for you 😬
Apache Maven Daemon aka mvnd 2.0.0-rc-1 is release (wraps Maven 4.0.0-rc-1). Go get it while hot!

Working on my starter pack of Friendly Java Champions, Rockstars, Advocates and just generally good Java devs to follow.☕
This is a drama-free, supportive and inclusive group of professionals.❤️ (They don't call people Nazis or advocate for violence.)
They make Bluesky better.

All this, plus: having made the switch some time ago, scripts are so much better to read when coming back after a while. Bonus points for more convenient writing on dead-keys keyboard layouts imho
