About

I'm Ken Kousen. I have entirely too much academic training (two BS degrees from MIT, an MA and a Ph.D. from Princeton, and an MS from RPI), I'm the author of six technical books about Java, Groovy, Kotlin, Android, Gradle, and Mockito, I've given talks at conferences all over the world, and I have 25+ years of experience in Java and related topics. Let me help you understand what's important in the IT world and what isn't. "Tales from the jar side" is a pun on (1) The Far Side cartoons by Gary Larson, and (2) how Java applications are delivered as "jar" (Java archive) files. It's about my continuing Java journey. Lame, sure, but I'm committed to it now. By the way, my last name is pronounced "cousin", like the relative, even though it doesn't look like that. Thanks for visiting!
