What You Have Been Missing on the NightHacking Tour…
steveonjava | November 3, 2012If you haven’t been watching the live stream of the NightHacking Tour, you have been missing out on a lot of geeky fun.
I am only 1/3 through the tour route, but I have already had some pretty amazing sessions with Java Champions, Speakers, Authors, and Java User Groups. Here are some of the talks you might want to check out:
- Sven Reimers with a prototype JavaFX port of the NetBeans UI
- Angry nerds, JavaFX Pinball, and other geeky coolness with Toni Eppel
- Java Champion, Adam Bien, showing his JavaFX performance profiling app
- A reverse interview by Toni and Adam standing in front of my motorcycle in Munich
- Live JUG hacking sessions with the Munich JUG and London Java Community
- JFXtras and behind-the-scenes look at the JFall keynote with Tom Eugelink
- Build security exploits with Sander Mak
- Discussion of modular design with Chris and Paul at JFall
- Interview with Trisha Gee on women in computing and no-sql databases
- Chat and brainstorming with Stephen Colebourne on JSR 310 and JVM languages
- GroovyFX hacking with Russel Winder
- Interview at Ben Evans’ hood
