Java Posse Episode 142 - Special from JavaZone 2007
Velkommen til Episode 142 av Java Posse - Ekstrasending fra JavaZone 2007!
Top reasons indicating you might be on a Broken Project:
-
It takes three months to add one checkbox to a web UI
-
Everything starts to look like it would be quicker to rewrite
-
Everyone on the project has "Architect" on their business card, and yet they never agree on anything!
-
Conversations start with "Oh, that, that's really simple, you just...." followed by a 30 minute description on what to do
-
You time your life around "the build"
-
The GUI is written in AWT... or HTML 3.2
-
Or! The GUI is written in something you wrote yourself
-
The project .... is a home grown web framework
-
Someone just added 5 more hours of meetings to your work week because "it's late"
-
The guy who is supposed to train you, throws a folder of notes at you and runs away cackling gleefully
-
The lines of XML outnumber the lines of Java 10:1
-
You ask about unit tests and get blank stares from everyone, or a "yeah, we should do that really"
-

Roundup 2007 Session - Whither Java?
Fully formatted shownotes can always be found at http://javaposse.com
Recorded at the Java Posse Roundup 2007, this session examines what's
next for Java, but not necessarily in the "Beyond Java" sense of
everything going Ruby. In fact, the discussion focuses more on the
switch to a more functional view of programming, but within the
confines of a practical application language (i.e. not one that
requires you to do everything in a functional way). This session was
convened by Joel Neely.
-
The Haskell functional programming language
- Fibonacci in Haskell
- Currying functions
- Scala (with functional programming features)
- Functional Programming from Wikipedia

Roundup 2007 Session - Forking Open Source Java
Fully formatted shownotes can always be found at http://javaposse.com
This is one of a series of sessions recorded at the Java Posse Roundup
conference, 2007. Audio in this series was recorded using a simple mic
setup to record the whole room, so quality may not be as high as a
normal "studio" recording. The sessions are being released in no
particular order. While pains have been taken to remove any
inappropriate material, there is a chance that some may have been
missed, however this should not be common.
Links of interest for this session:
- James Gosling's Transcendental Meditations
- The other side of the story - a thread on Java.net
- The Kitchen Sink Project on Java.net
- Cleaning up the old deprecated method calls

Just a quick note to say that all of the sessions were recorded from the Roundup and will be released soon as podcasts. I am still working through the details of how to release them (bandwidth being the major consideration, and also not saturating the regular podcast channel - it is likely there will be a second channel just for the roundup sessions). Links and notes will accompany the episodes.
The quality is perfectly audible for the sessions but will not be as good as regular Posse episodes - rather than encumber people with microphones and speaking orders, the recorders were just placed in the middle of the room to pick up whatever was said (plus some ambient noise).
Anyway - rest assured that every session we recorded will go out as a podcast and we have no interest in holding them back. Any delay will be due to a combination of available bandwidth and my time in processing the audio to enhance the quality as much as possible.
Thanks
Dick

Mon, 22 January 2007
As promised, here are the final details for tonight's (Jan 22nd, 2007) 100th episode which will be recorded live in front of a studio audience. We will be recording at around 6.30pm, but it is recommended that you try and get to the meeting point by 6.15 - latecomers will find it hard to get into the complex. This google maps link shows all of the important spots. Recommended parking location is off of Charleston Road (along the bottom of this picture). Hopefully you will find some spaces - at 6.15pm the car park should be clearing out a bit. The place to meet is in between buildings 42 and 43 - shown in the top left of the maps link. A lady called Liz will be there to meet you and escort you in. We are happy to announce that there will be complimentary refreshments, including beer, at this event :-). Learning from last time we didn't want to promise anything we couldn't deliver, so we left the announcement until the last minute. Hope to see you there... The Java Posse

Closing - "The Outer Light" or "Inside the Light" (they haven't decided
yet) by Butterflies and Zebras (Norm Howard, and Steve Northover - the
SWT dude) - "I tuned my old acoustic to a C modal tuning that I like
(CACDCE). I asked Norm for some east Indian sounds which he
proceeded to make flawlessly, using a glass slide and his sunburst
strat. Without warning, he launched into a rhythm pattern, using
his delay to double up what he was playing (the delay is in time with
the rhythm so it's there, but you don't notice it, so it's kind of
ghostly). I took the solo, clean first with a TS9 for light
distortion and then the wah, and finally clean again. Towards the
end, I switch to rhythm (no delay) and Norm solos, using the same delay
that he used for the rhythm. He's tasteful and heads for the stars
during the fade out" -

Hi Posse Listeners. I just got through setting up the Java Posse google group. You can get it at: http://groups.google.com/group/javaposseAnyone can read the posts there, but only members can post (this is hopefully to cut down spam posting). It is unmoderated but if we end up with a lot of spam we might start moderating first posts (I don't think any of us want this to turn into a Chinese links spam distribution medium). Enjoy, and I hope this group gets some traffic. We will, of course, be reading it and joining in.

Closing - "Africa (About Face)" by Butterflies and Zebras - Norm Howard
and Steve Northover (Steve was interviewed about SWT
recently)
Comment from Steve Northover - If you check
http://www.onmusic.com/nands
(the slowest site in the world), some of the fractals and many of the
mp3's I gave you are now available there. For "Africa (About
Face)", my acoustic is tuned in this great EEEEBE tuning. Norm is
playing his electric through his 100W Marshall stack clean. It's a
straight forward song (something we don't do too much). I'm using
a delay pedal and not much else. Bet you can't even hear it much.
That's the interesting thing about guitar effects. When used
tastefully, they become organic rather than "in your face". It's
an art to sneak them in rather than just click them on and everyone
goes, "Oh listen, he just clicked in the flanger".
