Next week is Scotch on the Rocks and immediately following the conference we will be holding our 3 day ColdBox Training marathon. If you have not attended one of our seminars, well you should, they are intense,fun and a great way to learn. Doug Boude puts it best here in his blog: http://www.dougboude.com/blog/1/2009/11/Coldbox-101-Training-Review.cfm

If you are doing Coldbox development and you have not attended Luis' Coldbox 101 training class, I guarantee you that what you are writing is not all that it could be. It won't be architected as well as it could be, it won't be leveraging all of the shortcuts and features that it could be, and it won't be top of the line. That isn't to say that you aren't capable of writing a good Coldbox app, but without the in-depth understandings that this class offers, your app will very likely not be a great Coldbox app.

If you are serious about writing solid, load-bearing apps in Coldbox, do this for yourself: attend Coldbox 101 training.

We still got a few seats left and we close registration this FRIDAY!!  So hurry and book your seat today: http://coldbox-uk.eventbrite.com/?discount=vivaUK

Copy of BoxLang AI 3.4 Blog Series Part 5 : Reasoning Without the Guesswork

Reasoning-capable models have been usable in BoxLang AI for a while. params passes straight through to the provider body, so params: { thinking: { type: "enabled", budget_tokens: 10000 } } for Claude, or params: { reasoning_effort: "high" } for OpenAI, already reached the API. What never worked was reading the reasoning back. It was parsed out on arrival and silently dropped. In 3.4.0, that's fixed, and it's fixed the same way for every provider.

BoxLang 1.17 Series Part 4 : WriteDump Enhanced!

You call writeDump() on an ORM entity or a very rich class graph . The browser locks up. Thirty seconds later you get a page with forty thousand rows on it, you scroll for a while, you give up, and you go edit your code to dump a sub-key instead. Or worse, you crash the server.
