Hey frendos. Does anyone have a good link / summary for how to add a new processor to #asciidoc ?

tl;dr There doesn't seem to be a good way to render #jvm #bytecode and I would like to fix that, if one doesn't already exist. #java #ruby

510 daily posts on The Main Thread taught me two things: consistency works, and agents only help when verification keeps up.

I am changing the cadence now. Still Quarkus, Java, standards, and agentic engineering. More room for tests, examples, and claims that earned their confidence.

Welcome to the on going saga of our Hero's quest to find employment as a (backend) Software Developer. At this moment our Hero contemplates navel lint his dire plight. He scans the online landscape and job boards for signs of employers.

He can wield #C with extreme delicacy & finesse; compose functional code of #Erlang; use #Java, #Javascript, #NodeJS adeptly. Even understand the arcana of #Forth and has constructed a #RabbitMQ cluster with careful planning.

Yet our intrepid Hero is passed by again and again, like last year's Xmas toys. None glance in his direction as he rises from his chair to play with his faithful dog, Clicquot. Maybe tomorrow will yield new mysteries.

@john Hi, I’m not sure if you saw @mehmandarov’s article posted just a little while before your question:

https://mastodon.social/@mehmandarov/116792525382514461#

He describes Jackson as “strict” and other JSON libraries as “lenient”. Why is Jackson strict? I don’t know the actual reason but I have a plausible guess: an “extra” but unknown property might change the interpretation of one of the known properties.

There's a whole host of autoformatters for #Java. Which one do I want, assuming that I:

- Have astigmatism and greatly prefer 4 space indents
- Will probably use tons of lambdas and pattern matching
- Am otherwise okay with "good enough" and don't really care about the stylistic details
- Never want anything by Palantir to touch my machine ever

?

For those who live or have lived (like me up till 2020) in JavaLand, this will be a stimulating read: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/project-valhalla-explained-how-decade-work-arrives-jdk-skowroński-paulf/ (tl;dr: Java value classes)

When I was a Java-head, I mostly hated all the new Java features because to a one, they made it less readable. I think this mostly won’t? Can’t wait to hear reports back from people who try applying it to big codebases.

'Never use double for money' is dogma, not engineering.
