Unpopular opinion: In the most of spring boot projects, what folks call the "architecture" is just how files are located in packages

blog.jetbrains.com/amper/2025/0... We went to serverside: - Native Spring Boot and Ktor support - IDE support, intelligence works even in a broken build - Extract to template - You can create project/module without reading docs and using generators like start.spring.io Just give it a try!

Geocoding is hard: did you know that Australia is constantly drifting by 7cm/year or something approximately like that? So you stored coordinates in the DB. Year after you're cooked

An interesting paper on why C no longer maps well to modern hardware. Instead of continually optimizing hardware design to support legacy abstractions like the serial execution model of C, the paper points out it is time to rethink the programming model itself. 🧵 queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?i...

Have you heard the story that VSCode started blocking extensions in forks, like Cursor? This is what happens when you don't own the platform But the problem is a bit deeper. The whole open-source isn't that open, in fact There are companies behind most of the projects. They don't want to compete

Of course you can take roocode or cline and just add openai compatible custom api key But what could be more customizable as anything written from scratch For now it’s not to much to write Besides it could be vibe-engineered, and then bootstrapped

Different levels of understanding some particular tech 1. I bruteforce until it works 2. I finally get how exactly it works, but why it is designed so poorly, couldn't they come up with a better solution? 3. They can't because life is hard and programming is hard

Interesting thing, despite of MCP fetch doesn't prevent you from getting data from the websites, it turns out that without a jailbreak you can't bypass robots.txt This is actually good news! So if you don't want LLMs to parse any content you serve, you can just easily forbid that

It turned out it’s not needed to upload the whole project to Gemini 2.5 pro What is enough is to provide as broad toolset as you can, and it starts to perform comparably to Claude desktop Okay, now I convinced that Gemini is a beast

Real talk: with spring boot it’s literally 3 files with 50 lines of code in total Everyone can do that, even if your main language is Python You can vibe-engineer UI later

It’s maybe obvious for everyone, but if you want to use a new shiny LLM with your favorite MCP and cursor/copilot/windsurf/jetbrains AI/etc doesn’t support this model yet (and maybe never) Open start.spring.io Chose spring-ai-mcp-client Do annotation-driven development (it’s easy, trust me) ⬇️⬇️⬇️

I believe it’s not fair to treat Gemini 2.5 Pro like you treat Sonnet 3.7 To make Gemini work you have to put the whole project into the context and it’s damn expensive Without considering that sonnet look way more expensive than Gemini ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Have anyone already tried GitHub MCP? Like, how cool is that: you ask LLM to solve the ticket, and then you do the actual code review put the comments, right in the proper places in the code, and LLM is doing exactly what you asking for It’s like with junior developer, but faster ⬇️⬇️⬇️

What is really great about the current state of the AI and stuff is a speed, I’m really happy to observe how some tech is created. The process is really amazing When MCP was only introduced, there was how many, 30-40 different servers, now there are tons and tons Also standardization is a key! ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Just a reminder while you're waiting Junie release: you can create your own Cursor in Intellij There is a MCP server intellij plugin in the marketplace, which allows you to make your desktop LLM interact with the IDE Claude Desktop supports that So you can enjoy claude sonnet 3.7 in agentic mode

With AI agents coming, it seems like we software engineers are going to transform to project managers, or are we already..? Every activity of more or less experienced engineer is a small kinda project The faster we pick up the management skills, the more we gonna be ready to the AI revolution

Back then, I mostly did REST APIs using django and later spring boot, I kinda refused or tried to avoid UI development because I considered that unworthy of my time My first experience of full-stack engineering was with EmberJs, then React, I hated buttons, dialogs, modals, state management, etc ⬇️

i kinda gave up and decided to go with one of the local rings with camera available on the market, instead of using esp32 This is too sensitive to reliability However, I found out another good usage: IR blaster with feedback

Hey folks, I'm a newbie in #electricalengineering I have a ESP32 I connected the button with long wiring (this button previously closed the circuit from transformer 12V to coil (doorbell)) One end to GPIO13, another one to GND I set the pin in the INPUT_PULLUP mode that uses internal pullup ⬇️
