On Tuesday's live #Java coding stream (https://jitterted.stream/), I continued work on the "Concert Started" #EventSourcing Processor, using "Olive" tests to provide tiny steps to build a firm foundation.

Read the notes at https://ted.dev/articles/2026/02/10/live-coding-journal-feb-10-2026/ and tune in to my next stream!

In fact, I got so into the flow writing the notes that I missed my normal dinner time!

You can catch up on the notes (#EventSourcing, #Java, #TDD) so far:

I'm trying (again) to regularly write notes from my live coding #Java streams, and so far it's a bit of work, but I'm hopeful that it's sustainable. I've been working with my wonderful coach, Andrea Goulet (https://www.debugginghumancommunication.com/) who's helped me create some experiments...

Got all functions and symbols renamed nicely in ghidra, and want to have a single-file export of all source? Easy with the Script Manager and a Java script to dump all functions to a single file - see picture for example.

#ProjectAmber just introduced a new design proposal for Carrier Classes & Carrier Interfaces.

The goal? Extend record-style modeling to more Java types - without losing concise state declarations, derived methods, or pattern matching.

Awesome AssertJ: Use isEqualToNormalizingNewlines To Assert With Text Block
A blog by @mrhaki

A Java text block is an easy way to have a multiline string value. But there is a catch if we want to use a text block with the assertion method isEqualTo. Suppose you have written a piece of code that create a new string value where the line endings are defined using System.lineSeparator(). The string value would have the...

OpenJDK updates (Slackware packages)

Last weekend I uploaded updates for OpenJDK based Java versions 8, 11 and 17, and added a new version 21 to the repository. Specifically, my repository now offers: openjdk (version 8): updated to 8u482_b08 for Slackware 15.0 and newer, using the icedtea 3.38.0 framework. Note: for OpenJDK 8, you need to install either the JDK or the JRE, not both (the JDK contains the JRE).

Dear #Java developer, you really shouldn't miss this talk tomorrow.

It will be streamed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BK1vZQYZofs

#OpenJDK #Leyden #optimization #performance #talk #conference

Your project has 2,000 tests—and nobody knows which are #JUnit4. Jean Donato explains how @OpenRewrite and Dependency Analyzer help you migrate safely, step by step.

That said, we are in dire need of a good, simple, robust cross-platform application binary format. Something like #Java .

I mean, we have WASM, but that's hella cursed. :P

@dmoonfire @rl_dane

That said, we are in dire need of a good, simple, robust cross-platform application binary format. Something like #Java .

But definitely something more implementable than the Web browser... HTML5, JS, CSS et al have gotten way out of hand.

I really think #Gemini #GeminiProtocol is on to something with deliberately limiting #extensibility .
