I have been looking for a programming language for simple (cross platform) CLI tools for a long time. Professionally I use #Java, which I accept now as the safest choice for serious enterprise stuff. I have tried #Typescript but after a long stint I have decided to say goodbye to the Javacript ecosystem for anything but Frontend. Now on #Go and #Rust, leaning towards the latter. I won’t consider #Python (sorry). I could just use Java for everything. Anyone want to weigh in?

Java as a scripting language?
Yes. And it’s actually good now.
I just published a hands-on guide to JBang: single-file Java, instant execution, inline deps, real CLI tools, even Quarkus APIs.
If you’ve ever wished Java “felt faster,” this one’s for you.

Applets are officially gone, but Java in the browser is better than ever
The end of an era, perhaps.
Applets are officially, completely removed from Java 26, coming in March of 2026. This brings to an official end the era of applets, which began in 1996. However, for years it has been possible to build modern, interactive web pages in Java without needing applets

L'entreprise dans laquelle je termine mon alternance pour mon diplôme ingénieur en développement informatique ne pourra pas m'embaucher pour un contrat plus long faute de poste à pourvoir. Je cherche donc un poste de développeur junior pour ingénieur fraîchement diplômé, en back-end ou full-stack avec #Java. J'ai aussi de l'expérience en front-end avec #Angular.
Le présentiel ne me dérange pas sous réserve de possibilité au moins occasionnelle de télétravail.
Points qui m'intéressent : usage d'outils indépendants des GAFAM, poste situé hors des grandes villes (sauf si le présentiel n'est qu'occasionnel).
Disponible à partir de décembre.

ICYMI, here's a paper that was trying to answer this research question in the context of #OpenSource #Java projects on GitHub: "What do open-source maintainers think about integrating #VEX into their existing SBOMs?"
TL;DR: "In most cases, our augmented SBOMs were not directly accepted because developers required a continuous SBOM update."

Java 25’s new CPU-time profiler
More than three years in the making, with a concerted effort starting last year, my CPU-time profiler landed in Java with OpenJDK 25. It’s an experimental new profiler/method sampler that helps you find performance issues in your code, having distinct advantages over the current sampler. This is what this week’s and next week’s blog posts are all about. This week, I will cov

From CRUD to Co‑Pilots: Will Java Standards Own or Miss the AI‑Infusion Race?
Thoughts grouped around a simple Quarkus‑powered AI debugging assistant. Why Java’s scale, standards, and reliability make it the perfect fit for AI.

Yesterday I met a good friend which is a #java developer actually a #SprintBoot developer, Me as a #Ruby on #Rails developer and with few drinks, I couldn't help but ask him to teach me how to use Spring Boot and the compare with Rails
1. Time ago I don't read and code java, it was weird but I recall good times.
2. Ruby is awesome and easy to read, Java is readable but more complex
3. Rails is in Spring boot partly but #Laravel is better being similar to Rails
