Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! I'm writing this installment from a hotel room in Dallas, Texas, in the USA. Last night I had the privilege of hanging out with some of my friends from the local Java scene. Today I meet with customers. It's going to be a nice few days indeed.

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! How're you? I almost forgot today was Tuesday! Here in the US, we had a three day weekend for President's day, and also I've been streaming for a few hours every day (or almost every day on my little YouTube channel) so the days kinda have blurred together. I'm so glad I caught a glimpse of the calendar or I might have missed this installment. We've got a ton of stuff to get to this week so let's dive right into it!

Also: next week I'll be in Dallas! Let me know if you wanna grab some code and coffee?

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! It's Tuesday, February 7th, 2023, as I write this and I'm so very glad to be talking to you. How're you doin'?

Some housekeeping: I'll be doing more live streams over on my YT channel - join me and we'll talk shop.

I'm going to be in Chicago, IL, next week, and am wondering about doing an in-person livestream folks while I'm there? Anybody wanna meet at a café or something for a little code and coffee? Hit me up!
