Programming Pitfalls: Cors & Spring Boot

Spring Boot is an offshoot of the popular Spring framework and brings many conveniences from modern non-Java web development frameworks to Spring developers. It’s related to the Spring MVC framework but is more geared toward use in a mircoservices architecture.

Spring Boot

Takes an opinionated view of building production-ready Spring applications. Spring Boot favors convention over configuration and is designed to get you up and running as quickly as possible.

Stack Overflow Developer Survey 2016 Results

This year, over fifty thousand developers shared where they work, what they build, and who they are. You are about to read the results of the most comprehensive developer survey ever conducted.

NY bill would provide tax credit for open source contributors

What no indie developer wants to hear about the App Store

In the age of Toys R Us and endless plastic of Lego and Hasbro, indie toy making has all but disappeared from the mainstream. So have many music and book shops in the face of Amazon and mom-and-pop shops in the shadow of Walmart.

@ChrisLAS Could you mention in the show (feedback perhaps?) that Rust 0.11 will be released tomorrow? It’s an extremely cool language from Mozilla, only a few people know about it right now however

@ChrisLAS lol, there’s actually a game engine written in Rust now https://github.com/PistonDevelopers/piston

@ChrisLAS Rust is perhaps the only language which could save us low-level folks from C++

Is there a difference between expertise, comfort, and laziness?
What if the new hotness looks downright cold?
Do you have to follow the trends to be a current dev? Is there really such a thing as stagnation?

— Claim Before the I/O —

In Washington, Google is already a political behemoth. The tech giant spent more than $3.8 million to lobby federal lawmakers on privacy, patent and immigration reforms just in the first quarter of 2014, according to federal records. So far in the 2014 election cycle, the company also has donated $1.1 million to federal candidates.
