I asked @github.com copilot to fix a feature of my #jfmt CLIBtool ( #java formatter). Turns out, if you're willing to invest some time, give a lots of detailed instructions, and give reviews, it turns out well.
Alas, coding took 40 minutes or so, I might have been faster. 😅
Still, impressive!

@foojay.io hey 👋🏻
Somehow, sigs, checksums and download site are missing here:

Can you make sense of it? That would be awesome!

I'm surprised that there wasn't more noise around the license change of #Liquibase from Apache License 2.0 to Functional Source License (FSL) in Liquibase 5.0.0.

"Let's see what's out there..." It was 38 years ago today (Sept 28, 1987) that "Encounter at Farpoint" had its premiere broadcast, introducing Capt Jean-Luc Picard and the crew of the Enterprise-D. I'm proud to have been a member of the team who made the show at Paramount.

TIL: In #Java, List.subList() and List.reversed() are implemented smartly. You may call these methods as many times as you want and in any order, but you don't get a long chain of references which leads to StackOverflowError. The longest chain of views is two: reversed -> subList -> original list.

#ThrowbackThursday Can't believe it's already been two weeks since I was on stage with @bmarwell.de at @javazone.bsky.social. We've discussed a structural approach to speeding up your #Maven builds. Missed it? See vimeo.com/1115842570.

Thanks to @maritvandijk.bsky.social for capturing the moment!
