• "From Sumatra to Panama, from Babylon to Valhalla" with John Rose

  Java's development embraces the past as well as the future and after contributing to it for over 30 years, John Rose is intimately familiar with the process. In this episode he talks about feature design, the right amount of technical debt (which isn't actually zero), why Rice's theorem demands a mix of static and dynamic checks, how Project Sumatra eventually birthed Panama and Babylon, and more. In this episode, Nicolai interviews John Rose, Senior Architect of the Java Virtual Machine, who brings over 30 years of experience advancing the Java platform.

• "From Cowboy Mode to Careful Stewardship" with Mark Reinhold

  Java is a 30-year success story, made possible because its development consistently aligned with users' needs. In its early days, the platform required new features quickly, but over time, minimizing code breakage while carefully evolving the platform became essential. Critical junctures along that path included the introduction of modules and the current strive toward integrity by default. Nicolai Parlog talks to Mark Reinhold, Chief Architect of the Java Platform, who brings nearly three decades of experience shaping Java's evolution.

• "Amber & Valhalla - Incremental Design and Feature Arcs" with Brian Goetz

  OpenJDK projects such as Amber and Valhalla are renowned for their careful and methodical approach to designing and introducing new features to the Java platform. In this episode, Nicolai Parlog is joined by Brian Goetz, Java Language Architect at Oracle and lead of both Project Amber and Project Valhalla. Brian shares insights and updates on these influential initiatives as they discuss Amber's upcoming feature arc, Valhalla's plans for null-restriction, and more.

• "Deprecations & Removals" with Stuart Marks

  Java is not just adding features, it's also removing old ones that became obsolete and are either a maintenance burden, performance drag, or hazardous to use. In this episode we touch on 32bit ports, applets, finalization, and the security manager. Nicolai Parlog talks to Stuart Marks, who works in the JDK Core Libraries group at Oracle. Right now, he's dressed in a lab coat and wears a stethoscope because he embodies his alter ego Dr. Deprecator.

• "Integrity by Default" with Ron Pressler

  The Java runtime offers a host of guarantees like memory safety, type safety, encapsulation, and many more. What makes these aspirations actual guarantees is a property called "integrity". But there are a few mechanisms in Java that allow undermining integrity - some for good, some for less good reasons. Integrity by default states that all such operations need to be disabled by default. Today we discuss why that is so important, what the progress toward this goal has been, and what Java developers need to know to keep their applications going. Nicolai Parlog talks to Ron Pressler, who is Java Architect at Oracle and, among other things, lead of Project Loom.
