7 Ways You Can Build an Amazing Dev Career in the AI Era

**Note special location: Intuit, 8 Spadina Ave, 19th Floor** **7 Ways You Can Build an Amazing Dev Career in the AI Era** Are you also wondering where you fit in all of this? Every day, you are bombarded with claims that AI will transform software development. Is this an unprecedented opportunity or an existential threat? After more than 30 years in the software industry, I've seen technologies create opportunities, destroy opportunities, and completely reshape careers. Yet... there are always professionals who seem to thrive regardless of the changes happening around them. Why do some become more valuable... while others struggle? This presentation will face the myths around AI head-on and explore how you can create opportunities in the age of AI... instead of being afraid and scrambling to keep up. Because the future may belong to those who understand something deeper than technology itself... **About the venue** Intuit has generously offered to host Toronto JUG in their downtown office at The Well. They will provide some food and drinks. **Speaker Bio** Since 1995, Bruno has been helping Java developers advance their careers and work on exciting projects. A recognized Java Evangelist and Java Champion, as well as a board member of the Java Community Process, Bruno founded and leads SouJava, the Brazilian Java Users Society. In his book, "Developer Career Masterplan," Bruno shares insights on career development for senior developers, topics he further explores in his Code4.life project.

Fifteenth Meetup: Security Without the State – Police, Courts & the Free Market

Join Liberty Labs Toronto for our fifteenth meetup on **Thursday, October 22, 2026, at 7:00 PM** near Yonge and Eglinton! *(Note: this is one week later than our usual mid-month date.)* This month we’re asking a hard question with an open mind: if there were no monopoly on force, what would protection and justice actually look like? We’ll discuss: * How private security, insurance, and competing protection agencies might work in practice * How courts and dispute resolution could function without a state monopoly (arbitration, reputation, restitution) * Historical and real-world examples of non-state order * Common objections: “who watches the watchers?”, the poor, violent crime, and “what if the biggest gang wins?” * The difference between anarchic chaos and a market for law and security Come ready to think out loud. You don’t have to already believe a free-market justice system would work — you just have to be willing to examine the idea honestly. What to expect: * Open, respectful discussion (bring questions, doubts, and examples) * Complimentary appetizers * Everyone who attends will receive a million-dollar Zimbabwe note as a fun take-home reminder of real value vs. fiat illusions * Connect with 10-20 liberty-minded Torontonians Venue: Pickle Barrel (2300 Yonge St, at Yonge & Eglinton), right above Eglinton Station. Easy parking in the Yonge Eglinton Centre garage or nearby Green P lots. RSVP on Meetup or Eventbrite to save your spot. Leave the official script at the door. Let’s talk about justice and security as voluntary services — together.
