Wohoo! I finally got access to #Junie, the #JetBrains #AI agent. I'm curious to see how it compares to others I've been playing with like #Amazon Q Developer.

With all of the recent #Python love, I was wondering if anyone is using #GraalVM's Python support (https://www.graalvm.org/python/docs/#getting-started-with-graalpy-on-the-jvm ) for interoperating with #Java or other #JVM languages.

Check out #JDConf today! Online and free, so you can watch while you're working or taking a break. Top notch sessions about #Java and #AI. https://jdconf.com/

@philross Good to know!

Leg 2: Charlotte -> Richmond.

On the ground in Charlotte.

Goodby #arcofaj conference! I thoroughly enjoyed it! It was good to be back in Austin after over 14 years. Leg 1: Austin -> Charlotte.

Thanks to everyone who came to my "Beyond Chat and Code Completion: #AI Agents for Software Development" at #arcofai. You can find the slides here: https://virtua.tech/slides/dev-ai-agents.

Finally on the ground in Austin.

Here I come #arcofai! Only 4.5 hours delayed leaving ATL…weather and missing flight attendant drama.. Leg 2: Atlanta -> Austin.

In my way to #arcofai! Leg 1: Richmond -> Atlanta.

I just tried #IntelliJ's "merge with #ai" feature. It looked pretty good until I saw that it added a variable that didn't exist in either of the two files it was comparing...

So I put on my new #devnexus shirt today, then put on my jacket and left the house. I didn’t quite realize I was a walking billboard 😁.

Next week I'll be at @arcofai in Austin, TX talking about #AI agents for building software. There's an amazing line up of speakers and topics. If you still haven't registered, you can get a discount: https://www.arcofai.com/speaker/9d47b63037a84f469bd6aebe9d539c3f/card

I had a great time today at #Frontrunners (https://frontrunners.tech/) in DC. Excellent speakers, friendly attendees, and a great vibe. I also ran into my childhood best friend who I hadn't see in over a decade!

Thanks to everyone who came to my "Future-proof your Web Apps with #WebComponents and #Lit" talk at #Frontrunners (https://frontrunners.tech)! You can find the mindmap and demo code here: https://kitomann.com/#/sessions/14/future-proof-your-web-apps-with-web-components-and-lit . #javascript #typescript

For a while now, phind.com has been my favorite #ai search engine for software development. It's gotten much better lately, with runnable code snippets. Too bad they sometimes fail 🙂.

I'm looking forward to speaking about #lit and #webcomponents at the Frontrunners conference on Friday, March 21st in Washington, DC. It's a nice, one-day event. If you're local, check it out! https://frontrunners.tech/.

I know a lot of people use #sdkman for switching between versions of the JDK, but I prefer #jenv (https://github.com/jenv/jenv) because you can add any JDK installation, wherever it is on your machine. This has been useful when working with JDKs that can't be installed through sdkman. For example, this is how it looks on my machine currently.
