Tue, 20 May 2008 Today we feature the second of a two part session from the 2008 Emerging Technologies for the Enterprise Conference. The session, entitled "Web Framework Shootout," was assembled and moderated by by Manning co-founder Marjan Bace and was one of the highlights of the conference. Speakers included Yehuda Katz, Chad Davis, Max Carlson, Robert Hansen, Bear Bibeault, Chris Richardson, Dan Allen, Emanuel Bernard, Peter Armstrong and Obie Fernandez. Quite a group! I have lightly edited the quiet patches, and edited out one or two questions where people were speaking off mic and nobody responded. If you hear dropouts, it's because of those reasons, no major content was left out. This half does contain a few curse words and some heated debates. There is a very interesting exchange between the Java and Ruby camps. Comments[0] |
Thu, 15 May 2008 Today we feature the first of a two part session from the 2008 Emerging Technologies for the Enterprise Conference. The session, entitled "Web Framework Shootout," was assembled and moderated by by Manning co-founder Marjan Bace and was one of the highlights of the conference. Speakers included Yehuda Katz, Chad Davis, Max Carlson, Robert Hansen, Bear Bibeault, Chris Richardson, Dan Allen, Emanuel Bernard, Peter Armstrong and Obie Fernandez. Quite a group! The show was broken into two parts due to the fact that it ran rather long (over an hour). I have lightly edited the quiet patches, and edited out one or two questions where people were speaking off mic and nobody responded. If you hear dropouts, it's because of those reasons, no major content was left out. The second half promises to be even more entertaining than the first. I'll publish that segment next week, as we need to beep out a few choice words as the conversation got quite heated. Enjoy the podcast! Comments[0] |
Wed, 14 May 2008 If you're at all adventurous, you've probably loaded Linux on a PC
sometime in your life. Some of us avoid that pain by running
(screaming) to Mac OS X, where we have a nice, pretty view of the world
behind shiny and metallic, stylin' boxes.Not Andy Oswald. He's a tried-and-true Linux OS guy (Ubuntu, actually). When given a Mac Mini to play with, he really enjoyed kicking the tires, playing with those fun apps, but when it got down to brass tacks, he felt more at home on Linux. Once Andy got his MacBook Pro, he dug around and found a small community of users running Ubuntu on the Mac. And he's now one of them. Learn how he fared by listening in. If you do this yourself, we highly recommend thinking twice, backing up, and using the right machine for the job (NOT YOUR WORK ONE!)
