Hi, Spring fans! I chat with BellSoft’s Catherine Edelweiss about using buildpacks and hardened images to ship Spring Boot apps with stronger security, cleaner defaults, and far less Dockerfile pain. #BellSoft #Docker…
Find out about the improved Curve25519 field performance in JDK 27 and JDK 28.
If you haven’t read the first two parts yet, I recommend starting with Part 1: Where AI Agents Add Value and Part 2: Designing and Planning the Agent. There, we introduced the WMS scenario, discussed where an AI agent…
If you arrived here without reading the first part, I recommend starting with Agentic WMS — Part 1: Where AI Agents Add Value. There, we introduced the WMS scenario, explored the replenishment problem, and discussed…
I spent a large part of my career working in banking and logistics. In logistics, I spent more than eight years working across different stages of logistics systems, from development to implementation and production…

Java developers reach for the debugger without thinking about it. Set a breakpoint, run the failing test, look at the variables, then decide what to change. Most AI coding agents I have watched skip that step. They read…

(CI)", as originally suggested by the practices of Extreme Programming. While these days we tend to mean "run your build and tests on a team server every time you commit" when we say CI, what CI really meant was…

I spent months building a static analyzer that answers one question about a Spring Boot codebase: if I change this endpoint, what does the change reach? Every serious bug I found in it had the same shape. Not a wrong…
Crash faults and Byzantine faults are not the same problem, and reaching for blockchain-grade guarantees inside a trusted internal network usually solves a problem you don’t have. Blockchain’s rise put a strange new…
