Hi folks - My name is Scott Starkey, living around the Lafayette area. My day job is a Groovy / Java developer for Purdue. Is it possible to have too many creative hobbies? I'm a part-time professional magician & mentalist (i.e. a probably fake mind-reader); I speak Esperanto; I'm a game designer and illustrator. I'm a Freemason. My favorite candy is a Zagnut bar.

If you're a or developer and want to play with the api from Google Cloud (the same that powers ), you might be interested in this article I just wrote:

You'll find docs & samples for but nothing for the ecosystem. So I wanted to see how I could craft a kid story generator with but using , and deploy it on .

But I faced some issues with authentication. Hence the article!

I have criticized @Gradle in the past due to lagging support. With older versions of @ApacheGroovy is the default DSL, which breaks when trying to use it with newer JDKs. ASM has to be modified for each new JDK version. ASM does keep up with new JDKs quite well, but it takes time for to update ASM, and even more time for Gradle to update Groovy. Now that Gradle is moving to as the default DSL, this may be less of a problem.

"How Big Should a Programming Language Be?" by @ltratt

tratt.net/laurie/blog/2023/how

Is there still a simple language out there? Perhaps only brand new ones are? Developers always expect languages to gain new features. But at some point, you reach feature-bloat and your language is not simple anymore.

When working on I always thought about this, as adding new features was often useful for a smaller subset of users.

But if you stop adding features, people think the project is dead.
