Is it just me who would find very rude to get an email who has been clearly generated by AI?

Legacy systems can often slow down innovation and scalability. But modernization is not just about moving to the cloud or adopting new technologies—it's about doing it right! A well-structured Migration Blueprint will guide you from strategy to execution. #legacymodernization

Modernizing legacy systems is more than just a technical upgrade—it's about laying the foundation for long-term success. A Migration Blueprint acts as your roadmap, ensuring the transition is smooth, cost-effective, and aligned with business goals. #legacymodernization

On day 2. #langdev2024 will have a mini-track focused on #LionWeb. Thread on it… 🧵

#LionWeb is a community driven effort to define standard interfaces to simplify and make possible the interoperation of modeling tools from different vendors. lionweb github.com/LionWeb-io

First talk about #LionWeb will be driven by Jos Warmer & Nico Stotz introducing the new features and reporting the progress in LionWeb in the last year. langdevcon.org/2024/program#32

Second talk by Alessio Stalla from Strumenta will talk about parsing with Kolasu and its integration with #LionWeb langdevcon.org/2024/program#37

Next turn will be for Ulyana Tikhonova from F1RE about the implementation or LionWeb on top of Rascal.

Lastly, Erkan Diken from F1RE will discuss about the Execution of LionWeb nodes in Truffle Language Framework.

A good week, half-time spent on R&D activities. Nice to spend some time on the good bits of the job :)

Yes. Writing is not a second thing that happens after thinking. The act of writing is an act of thinking. Writing *is* thinking. Students, academics, and anyone else who outsources their writing to LLMs will find their screens full of words and their minds emptied of thought.

Does anybody remember a time when Internet was about sharing knowledge and not trying always to sell something or grab attention?
