I run Mystic Coders, a technology consultancy that helps companies build software and navigate the ever-shifting landscape of AI, cloud, and web development. We've worked with everyone from startups to Fortune 500s.
I've written books on WebSockets and Spring. I've spoken at conferences around the world—Java2Days, ConFoo, ÜberConf, and dozens of others—about everything from real-time systems to the philosophy of software craftsmanship.
I also write The Long Compile, a weekly newsletter exploring the questions that don't fit in a technical blog post: What happens when AI hallucinates confidently? What did Gaudi understand about patience that we've forgotten? Why do the best engineers I know read philosophy?
When I'm not at a keyboard, I'm probably traveling somewhere new, watching the Lakers, or having conversations with my kids that end up becoming essays.
