@CSVC2026 Common sense dictates that we don’t vote for pedophiles and misogynistic pigs who have stolen our tax dollars for tax breaks for the wealthy.
@RichardFichtner will be joining us for #Devnexus2027☕️
His talk looks at how Java devs can put AI-generated refactorings to the test, using code reviews, debugging, tests & real evidence to decide whether a suggested change is actually worth merging.

We're looking forward to welcoming @BrianVerm from @snyksec to #Devnexus2027! 🚀

Expect live demonstrations and practical advice for securing agent integrations.
See you in Atlanta!
