Wednesday, October 7th, 2009blogging live from october sv-gtug
It’s a nice cozy group here, and several Santa Cruzans are here as well.
(Maybe the “write code” pared it down somewhat.)
So just finished off my ginormous burrito and diet coke.
Just learned about a framework for Groovy on AppEngine.
SV-GTUG Tonight: App Engine 1.2.5 release.
Wednesday, October 7th, 2009October Meeting: App Engine 1.2.5 Coding Session Oct 7 Wed 6:00 PM
Where? Googleplex (Bldg. 43) 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Tunis Conference Room Mountain View, CA 94043
Who’s coming? Usually about 125 People
Want to attend? We will be meeting at the normal time in the usual place in October. Unlike our usual meetings, there will be no speaker in October. Instead, we will be meeting in a training room with tables and power hookups. This will be a group opportunity to do some coding for the evening while exploring the new features in the recent App Engine 1.2.5 release.
Great opportunity to rideshare!

My Guice Presentation
Tuesday, September 8th, 2009Here’s the actual source code:
Java files
Attention is so short, I thought that there was room for a really really “KISS” dead simple presentation on Guice, so I tried to restrict it to 12 slides and a “hello world” type application. I figure if you “get” IoC, not just as a way to get “Spring” on your resume, you’ll get the basics from it and then move on to the grown up stuff.

Tuberculosis (TB) and Malaria kill millions each year and infect hundreds of millions more. Most of those infected are miles from a doctor and even farther from reliable medical equipment. This means that many go untreated, and many more may be misdiagnosed. A portable method for sampling blood in the field could literally save millions of lives. ,,,,

If you couldn’t make it, here’s a video of a different presentation that is of interest to those of you who are coding in Java and using or thinking of using dependency injection.

If you come to think about it, the collaboration model of threads within a machine, or shared memory between a small number of machines is not scalable.
What if you have 100,000 machines and you want to divvy up the work between them.
WARNING: This is NOT for the faint of heart, but is a bit hard core. The first part has a fairly accessable introduction to the key concepts.
Anybody interested in Google Technology?

I am trying to start a GTUG in Santa Cruz, to make it more convenient for Santa Cruz CA geeks.
(Google Technology Users Group…)
I have filled out the adoption papers with Google, and have a logo, and am waiting to hear back.
So if anybody is interested, let me know.
