In December 2019 I attended the conference Functional Scala in London which was initiated and managed by John de Goes. See Skillsmatter about what happened to Scala Exchange.

I took the train to Karlruhe and then back from FrankfurtE, but cycled from Karlsruhe …

The company Skillsmatter in London has been put „under administration“ and basically stopped its operations. The web site seems to suggest, that everything is still ok, but that is not the case and I have heard so from several sources. The owner Wendy Devolder writes on Twitter and on Linkedin. Or here are some more …

In Java it is possible to declare a method with a „throws“-clause. For certain exceptions, that are not extending „RuntimeException“ or „Error“, this is actually required. What looked like a good idea 25 years ago has proven to be a dead end. I do not know of any other major programming language that opts for …
