- ETE 2021 is almost a month away: we’ve got Daniel Spiewak, Tammy Bryant Butow, Jessica Kerr, Alan Kay, and more. Virtual again this year, but our content is as excellent as ever. Single tickets are $89, but if you’d like to go with your team, take advantage of our buy 3, get one free deal happening now.
- Good stuff, as always, on the Chariot Blog, like Keith Gregory’s newest post on three approaches to deploying lambdas in AWS.
- JDK 16 reaches GA on March 16, introduces Pattern Matching for instanceof. Check out Brian Goetz’s original article on pattern matching, and don’t miss his AMA at ETE 2021 this year.
- Announcing Spring Native Beta
- WebAudio API-based browser fingerprinting
- Jack Dorsey sells his first Tweet as an NFT for $2.9 million
