15 years at one desk. I thought I was part of the infrastructure. Turns out, I was just a line item in a spreadsheet.

I’m not bitter, I’m just... recalibrating.
To my fellow grey-beards on Mastodon: How do you keep your edge when your daily job is maintaining 10-year-old monoliths?
I'm currently practicing with a System Design simulator just to see if my brain still works. It's humbling.

Dear Cupid,

You kinda suck at HR.

Still a lonely heart looking for work. I know a variety of languages like English, French, #C, , #C#, , or . Been looking more at too. We can always talk(1) over or . Or write(1) little notes to each other.

We've released Netty 4.2.9 and 4.1.130.

They fix CVE-2025-67735 (https://github.com/netty/netty/security/advisories/GHSA-84h7-rjj3-6jx4), which is a line break injection vulnerability when encoding HTTP request objects.

The fix introduced a regression we had to fix as well, so versions 4.2.8 and 4.1.129 are skipped.

Huh, applets are officially gone from Java. I was just getting out of school when they became all the rage, and a large chunk of my time was spent dealing with Java in the browser at internships and later jobs. So long and thanks for, well, not a whole helluva lot really.
