"Configuration library for JVM languages. Overview implemented in plain Java with no dependencies extensive test coverage supports files in three formats: Java properties, JSON, and a human-friendly JSON superset merges multiple files across all formats can load from files, URLs, or classpath good support for "nesting" (treat any subtree of the config the same as the whole config) users can override the config with Java system properties, java -Dmyapp.foo.bar=10 supports configuring an app, with its framework and libraries, all from a single file such as application.conf parses duration and size settings, "512k" or "10 seconds" converts types, so if you ask for a boolean and the value is the string "yes", or you ask for a float and the value is an int, it will figure it out. JSON superset features: comments includes substitutions ("foo" : ${bar}, "foo" : Hello ${who}) properties-like notation (a.b=c) less noisy, more lenient syntax substitute environment variables This library limits itself to config files. If you want to load config from a database or something, you would need to write some custom code. The library has nice support for merging configurations so if you build one from a custom source it's easy to merge it in."

"Java 8 also brings many security improvements that are as important as the new language features. Of particular interest are the improvements to the TLS stack, implemented in the Java Secure Socket Extension (JSSE) component. Why? Because Java 7 and earlier do not give you enough control over TLS termination. As a result, it was simply not possible to terminate TLS at the Java level and achieve sufficient security. The deficiencies have been addressed in Java 8. Several other key improvements ensure that Java now provides a very good TLS stack. Many of the changes will take effect as you change the JRE, even with older applications."

"OSIN is an OAuth2 server library for the Go language, as specified at http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6749 and http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-oauth-v2-10. Using it, you can build your own OAuth2 authentication service. The library implements the majority of the specification, like authorization and token endpoints, and authorization code, implicit, resource owner and client credentials grant types."

"Simple and sane HTTP request library for Go language."

"An implementation of JSON Schema, draft v4 - Go language"

"API Documentation with powerful tooling. Web API Language. Pure Markdown. Designed for Humans. Understandable by Machines. Powerful Tooling. Easy Lifecycle."

The VMKit project is a framework for building virtual machines. It uses LLVM for compiling and optimizing high-level languages to machine code, and MMTk to manage memory. J3 is an implementation of a JVM with VMKit.

"A high-productivity web framework for the Go language."

"The Go language features, goals, and use cases have forced us to rethink the entire garbage collection stack and have led us to a surprising place. The journey has been exhilarating. This talk describes our journey. It is a journey motivated by open source and Google's production demands. Included are side hikes into dead end box canyons where numbers guided us home. This talk will provide insight into the how and the why of our journey, where we are in 2018, and Go's preparation for the next part of the journey."

" The OpenAPI Specification (OAS) defines a standard, language-agnostic interface to RESTful APIs which allows both humans and computers to discover and understand the capabilities of the service without access to source code, documentation, or through network traffic inspection. When properly defined, a consumer can understand and interact with the remote service with a minimal amount of implementation logic."

"At SoundCloud, we structure our product as an API with many clients. That is, our main website, mobile client, and mobile apps are all first-order clients of a single main API. Behind that API is a universe of services: SoundCloud operates basically as a Service-Oriented-Architecture. We're also a polyglot organization, which means we use lots of languages."

Cartón lleno... Bruce Eckel se subió al vagón de scala...

Muy buena mirada al estado del mercado de Go.

Google publicó el primer preview de su nuevo lenguaje. Soporta 2 ambientes de ejecución: una nueva virtual machine y compilado a javascript. La VM soporta startups muy rápidos leyendo el estado del sistema desde archivos de imagen estilo smalltalk. El lenguaje es OO pero basado en interfaces, no clases (aunque tiene clases, todos los method dispatch se refieren a una interfaz). El tipado estático es 100% opcional, permite no poner tipos e incluso permite ejecutar código que no valide el typechecker (con errores). El modelo de ejecución es tipo erlang como procesos single-threaded aislados unos de otros (no pueden compartir nada) que solo se comunican pasando mensajes, éstos se llaman "Isolates".

Este artículo sobre PHP es sumamente hilarante...

"Today, we announced the release of Scala.js v0.6.0, the Scala to JavaScript compiler, and dropped the experimental flag associated to it. Yes, you read it right: Scala.js is no longer experimental! After exactly 2 years of development, we finally feel comfortable calling it production-ready."
