Hi, Spring fans! In this episode Josh Long (@starbuxman) talks to Dan North (@tastapod), creator of BDD, optimizer of teams and all around legend.

Hi, Spring fans! Can you believe it’s already November 17th, 2020!? We’re weeks away from Thanksgiving here in the US and then the end-of-year holidays. I, for one, can not believe it. You know what else is pretty wild? The first week of January will be ten years of writing This Week in Spring!

I’ve got a pretty busy appearance schedule between now and the end of the year though. I’d love to see you at any of these events.

Hi Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of a Bootiful Podcast! In this installment Josh Long (@starbuxman) looks at the week that was, talks about the JUST released Spring Boot 2.4, and then talks to industry legend and larger-than-life friend John Davies (@jtdavies)

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! It’s November 10th, 2020, as I write this and I, for one, can not believe that we’re closer to 2021 than we are to 2019 at this point. That’s insane. Time has absolutely rocketed by in some senses and stood utterly still in others. Odd year, this one.

I hope you’re all doing well! I’m at the Reactive Summit today (virtually, of course). This afternoon I was on a wonderful panel with all sorts of folks from around the ecosystem. And soon, around 17:30 or so, if memory serves, I’ll be speaking about RSocket and its use in the Spring ecosystem.

Hi, Spring fans! In this episode Josh Long (@starbuxman) talks to Spring legend Thomas Risberg (@trisberg).
