Welcome to the May/June 2015 issue of Java Magazine! In myeditorial, I discuss the new direction Java Magazine will be taking in the issues ahead. We’re going radically more technical. In the next few issues, you'll see lots more hands-on material, deep expertise, in-depth tutorials, and all the kinds of goodness a programming magazine can deliver! This issue contains some early teasers: Interviews with Mark Reinhold and John Rose  The principal engineers behind Java and the JVM discuss their experience with Java during the last 20 years: what's surprised them, what they like about the language and platform, and what's coming. What's New in Java Persistence API (JPA) 2.1  A host of new features makes previously burdensome tasks a lot easier to do. Creating Games with Microsoft Kinect  Interacting with Microsoft's gaming hardware to create a simple paddle game. Brewing Java with the Raspberry Pi  Program a Raspberry Pi to interact with a scale to measure coffee and control the brewing of a fine cup of Java. Java EE: Understanding Contexts and Dependency Injection (CDI)  Learn how to use strong typing in dependency injection. Robots Answer the Call at Aldebaran  How one company uses a Java API to program robots. Plus an interview with JCP member Geir Magnusson; a look at a company working on deep learning; and the usual list of events, chats with Java champions, and a look at the NYC Java user group (JUG).
