We Can Now Write Command-Line Interfaces with Java
Command-line interfaces (CLI) need to start quickly and not use much memory. Sot that ruled out writing them in Java for most of us: Sure, Maven and Gradle start fast. But they’ve been tuned for years and don’t use the frameworks we want to use, like Spring Boot.

Java Champion James Ward on the State of Java and JVM Languages
James Ward is a Java Champion and Kotlin Product Manager at Google. He hosts the “Happy Path Programming” podcast with Bruce “Thinking in Java” Eckel. In one episode, Eckel spoke of “people who are still trapped in the Java world.” Ward agreed and called default mutability in Java the “trillion-dollar mistake” (referencing the “billion-dollar mistake” of NullPointerExceptions). That got me curious. So I interviewed James for InfoQ. Here are the key points:

What Will Be in Java 21?
As I reported in February, Oracle has currently four Java multi-year initiatives: Loom adds lightweight threads and structured concurrency, Valhalla introduces types that “code like a class and work like an int”, Panama improves how Java works with non-Java code, and Amber releases smaller features that make developers more productive. So, when can we expect them to ship?

Critical Log4j Vulnerability Log4Shell with Zero-Day Exploits
Unless you’ve been under a rock for the last month, you’ve heard (and probably dealt with) Log4Shell. It’s an attack against applications with vulnerable versions of the popular Log4j logging library. If an attacker tricks Log4j into logging a so-called JNDI link to a JAR file, then Log4j will execute that JAR file. And the attacker can then run any remote code on the computer that runs the Java application!
