I've moved over to Mastodon @JamesGosling@universeodon.com. Nothing interesting there (yet). It's not like I'm a prolific user of Twitter.

I had been hoping that Musk might have a shred of social intelligence, but no... So this is my farewell to Twitter. Now I'm entirely on Facebook, at least until Zuckerberg goes from whacky to evil.

What a powerful and eloquent contrast between the candidates for senator for Georgia. I find it mind boggling that this race (and many others) is close. Lying morons shouldn’t get a single vote.

A few weeks ago I gave a talk at DEVOXX all about building IoT software and Greengrass from AWS. I finally got around to watching the video. It's pretty decent if you speed it up 1.5x

@ebennekers I’m pretty sure I was just reading the news. Between Putin and the MAGA movement, there’s a lot of disturbing news these days. The world of software is pretty trouble-free.

Wonderful! I’m a happy JavaFX user. Thanks for all the wonderful work you do.

We did our first JavaFX release in September 2018 (JavaFX 11). We planned a 6-months cadence, similar to the JDK releases. Four years later, we still keep the train moving forward. It takes blood, sweat and tears, but seeing what developers are doing with JavaFX makes it worth.

@thor_benson I'd wager that it was one of Orange Satan's planned post-presidency revenue streams.

@jonstewart The fact that you don't want the job is one of your strongest qualifications for the job. Follow Zelensky. Or be Elizabeth Warren's veep.

@JeffQuesado @juanantoniobm It is sad that you're being held back by Google. If you want to get out of that trap, I'm a huge fan of Gluon

@Ty_alXander Corretto is Amazon's supported release of the JDK. Corretto/17 is fully supported within AWS. The performance improvements over JDK8 (particularly for garbage collection) are *dramatic*. Add to that all the new language features. The upgrade is compelling.

@mbk_center All the oligarchs toys and mansions and offshore bank accounts need to be confiscated to help fund the rebuilding of Ukraine. The people of Ukraine are due massive reparation payments from Putin.

For those of you that use Java in Lambdas on AWS, the Lambda team just posted a nice article on performance tuning:
