Why is there so many spammy junk ads on this site? :|

I run NoScript + uBlock and I thought "wow what a pretty, simple site!". Maybe the author does the same.

Hundreds of ads partners. The GDPR banner is so annoying I won’t even go further.

Smugly behind Brave and Adguard, I had no idea...

There is an extremely popular library/framework for Scala named ZIO out there,… Naming is hard.

Scala is missing from the languages list. :(

It's nice. But. Where is Q5? Our CEO said we need one.

For weeks now... Why?

You would be surprised - or rather shocked - how many enterprises still run on it.

We just finished upgrading all our Java 1.2 code to Java 17, the Java 6 projects are next :)

I doubt we'll get around to the Java 8 stuff before 2030.

Interesting, and a testimony to the stability of the jdk in a way. Did you use any automation tools for the migration I wonder?

The new code was written by a different department, so I'm a little hazy on the details, but I doubt it. It's a 25 years old line of business app, and it's in violation of every guideline, rule and law it touches, and only alive because it got grandfathered through various certifications and audits.

99% of the work was redesigning the business process it supports to be in compliance, and then write a new LOB app that takes inspiration from the old one, but works with the new process.

You might be able to use AI for the remaining 1% mind- and pointless boilerplate code Java requires for no good reason.

I expect 1.2 isn’t as bad as going from 1.4 or 8, not as many javax packages back then?

Are you hiring?

Trust me, you don't want that job :D I've been fighting to get our services to Java 21 from Java 8/11 for the last year or so, I've been partially successful but our main API (and 1/2 monolith) is still a dropwizard app on Java 11

Though to be fair, since a few years ago Java 8 is no longer the most popular java version.

Hi!

I'm seasoned software engineer, architect, engineering manager and ex-CTO with more than 25 years in the industry. I have a pretty neat track record of building pretty impressive things that live online. I've taken several projects from wireframes to global deployments. I love open-source!

I also have experience leading remote distributed teams and making sure that all the relevant product and business stakeholders are happy.

I would love to see what you wanna build and help you get to that next sweet level.

Sincerely,

Oto
