Ep77: Spring AI Memory Bug + LLMs, Skills, & Your Dev Career

A packed week of travel, debugging, writing, and reading. I share what I learned and ran into this week as a developer. Highlights: 🗣️ Spoke at the JavaMUG (Java Metroplex User Group) meetup in Dallas — highly recommended for Dallas-area developers! 🐛 Discovered a bug in Spring AI's Neo4j chat memory integration with the latest Spring Boot — workaround is to use in-memory storage for now. 📖 Working on a Java book chapter covering OOP concepts (abstraction, encapsulation, polymorphism) with a focus on practical, use-case-driven learning Event updates: 📅 Session from the AI Agents conference is now on YouTube GraphRAG Fundamentals O'Reilly course rescheduled to June in APAC timezone NODES CFP open until June 15th 📝 Two recommended reads: "MCP, Skills, and Agents" by David Cramer "LLMs and Your Career" by Phil Eaton
