If you want to use [At]Grab still in your #Groovy scripts in 2025, you need to make sure that #Apache #Ivy is configured to use #Maven #Central in a secure manner… Here's how, everything except line 12 is #Grape's default:

I get asked about this a lot, so... Would anybody be interested enough in a native-compiled Ruby implementation to fund a fork of JRuby that can be compiled with GraalVM Native Image? It's totally doable, but the work involved is nontrivial and incompatible with the JVM version.

So, I tried building reproducible binaries with Go by setting CGO_ENABLED=0 and -trimpath as suggested, yet I still get non-reproducible outcome, as binaries include their build timestamp. I’m sure I’m missing something but I have no clue what it may be. Any ideas? TIA github.com/kordamp/gm/b...

Can‘t stress enough how much Gradle sucks at UX, or rather excels at trashing UX, in favor of gaining a few nano seconds during builds and pleasing the build cache 😡

Pondering if @jreleaser.org should offer an MCP server of its own, whether included with the CLI or as additional download (due to dependency bloat) 🤔

And it came to pass, Gradle 9 removed the -b flag, breaking Gum as a result. In fairness there was a deprecation warning since 8 but I was hoping they would back down as yet again such move hinders UX. Silly me. Working on a fix and posting an update soon.
