Choose Things That Work And Solve The Problem

An airhacks.fm conversation with Erik Costlow (@costlow) about: the superold 486, DOS bootdisks, the difference between information systems and computer science, writing webapps and dining ordering scheduling with PHP, the trouble to start with Java 1.5 in 2004, type annotations in Java - JSR-308 annotations on Java types, writing servlets on Apache Tomcat at formsite.com, starting at fortify, joining Oracle Java Platform Group, 2 years of Java without a zero day exploit, starting at contrastsecurity.com, Contrast Security is the Duke Choice Awards winner, no secret plans at Oracle, deleting code with Quarkus migration, well spending security efforts by focusing on relevant APIs, using the Java instrumentation API to observe what is actually used, security scanners are similar to profilers, simplifying code with Panache and Quarkus, integrating a security framework as Quarkus extension, the battle of Thermopylae, the difference between MicroProfile and Jakarta EE, MicroProfile Platform is great for conserving developer skills, Quarkus is an optimized version of Java EE, pushing Quarkus to AWS lambda, Erik Costlow on twitter: @costlow and contrastsecurity.com
