I went to the #AIcamp meetup @workato.bsky.social in SF tonight. I was amazed by Jules Damji’s talk about @mlflow.org. I’ll look into this open source observability tool. Fun fact, he was also involved with Java in the 90s. It was great to meet you, Jules! #java #genAI #agents #AI

#RAG tutorials are easy. RAG in legacy systems with real data, real users, and real constraints… not so much. In 15 minutes at #JavaOne I'll share my lessons learned. RAG in the Wild: 10:30 PDT in room 105 [LRN1209].

Just home from another inspiring meetup @openvalue.eu. Loved @balarawool.bsky.social examples that build up to a clear understanding of vector databases, RAG and embeddings. The book I recommended Bala is Unlocking Data With Generative AI and RAG by Keith Bourne from Packt. #devlife #java #RAG

Learned something today. Turns out that my approach of implementing multiple classes from an interface was begging for the Strategy pattern. And that Spring Boot makes it a breeze to buid this. 😎 #devlife #java #springboot

Overhauled my #PKM knowledge garden.🪴 I love my old tool, but I keep getting the impression that I lost notes somehow. So, I geeked out with #Obsidian in my backyard today.😎 I love the scripted creation of a note with Templater. Next 🎯, overhauling my business notes. #devlife

GitOps isn’t just a trend; it’s the backbone of trust in modern platform engineering. Combine it with supply chain security principles (SBOMs, provenance, sigstore) — and you’ve got auditable, repeatable, and secure-by-default platforms. Thank you @stevefenton.co.uk @adrianmouat.com and Nicki watt
