10+ years experienced engineer with past experience in building web apps and REST APIs on the JVM. In my current role I'm working with some Ruby on Rails apps and Serverless apps with Ruby running on AWS Lambda, in addition to some DevOps responsibilities.
I'm open to both backend and DevOps roles (I recently read The DevOps Handbook and it was awesome). I'd be game to do fullstack as well, but I'm a little rusty on frontend outside of some light React work.
Yeah this was a problem for 6 & 7, but I've run plenty of code in production on OpenJDK 8 without issue. I think Java 8 was the first version where OpenJDK was the reference implementation so that likely helped a great deal.
Google Photos would be the most difficult thing for me to leave behind. Nothing to my knowledge even comes close in terms of functionality. A year or two ago I tried Microsoft's equivalent in OneDrive and it was absolutely abysmal, the web interface barely functioned with a few thousand photos.
Not to mention the search works so well, I don't know how I'd replace it for finding things. I would take an eternity to go back and tag all of my photos.
I was a little bummed to see this was not using Kotlin and TornadoFX, I've used them together a little and they're much more pleasant than using plain Java + JavaFX.
