<p></p>
<div>Programming Platform Growth: Table Stakes or Deal Makes?</div>
<div>This talk draws from Ed's 25 years of professional programming<br/>experience, spanning many languages, operating systems, and platforms,<br/>to survey what it takes to make a programming language platform<br/>successful in terms of widespread use. Ed will look at Java, Python,<br/>Node, Go, and Swift and evaluate the ingredients that brought each one<br/>its own form of success. Finally, Ed will draw some lessons that apply<br/>to anyone trying to grow their computing platform, because, at some<br/>level, we are all in the platform business.<br/><br/>## Purpose of the Talk<br/><br/>IT practitioners are often faced with platform selection choices when<br/>building solutions for their customers. The set of available choices is<br/>always subject to lots of churn and chaos. This talk looks at what<br/>separates successful platforms from others in terms of how each one<br/>deals with technical and non-technical concerns.<br/><br/>## Target Audience<br/><br/>* Architect level developers who are faced with technology selection choices.<br/><br/>* Developers who want the platforms they are building to be successful.<br/><br/>## Audience Takeaway<br/><br/>Success is never an accident, and when it comes to programming platforms<br/>thare are many checkbox-type things your platform must have to ensure<br/>success. But implementing these things requires lots of grit,<br/>determination, and polish.<br/><br/></div>

<div>We talked about big data, Hadoop and <a href="https://spark.apache.org/" target="_blank">Spark</a>. Duane Steward is in healthcare so examples were health related. </div>
<div>David Harris talked about 2 coworking places in Orlando people can use, the rates and what they're like: Canvs and the CoLab. There are incubators, too.</div>
<div>We all talked about upcoming conferences including Oscon, Open Source Bridge, WTF (the new name for the Java Posse Roundup) and ones in Florida: Barcamp, a Ruby conf in St Augustine sponsored by Hashrocket called <a href="http://www.ancientcityruby.com/" target="_blank">Ancient City Ruby</a> because St Aug is the oldest city in the USA. </div>
<div>We talked about Codetown and Meetup's popularity and whether to use Meetup to spread the word about Ojug.</div>
<div>Duane said he'd give a presentation about simulation using the Russian made software Anylogic.</div>
<div>Matt brought both a Galaxy Note 3 and an iPhone 5. They both fit in a front pants pocket! Amazing. He likes the Note 3 even though it's an older model. </div>
<div>We talked about Android development environments, <a href="https://console.ng.bluemix.net/" target="_blank">Bluemix</a>, the slowness of Eclipse and IntelliJ. </div>
<div>Matt said Deloitte opened a big office here in Orlando and is hiring. </div>

I look forward to another amazing J1 with info to absorb about functional programming, NoSQL, graph db's, Java 8, other languages on the JVM and more. So, thanks for your patience and loyalty. We have great presentations in store. See y'all when I get back. Please post some interesting discussions here on Codetown. By the way, I snagged <a href="http://www.codetown.com">www.codetown.com</a> from the cybersquatters, so it'll be easier to remember/suggest. </p>

<p>Hello OJUGGIES,</p>
<p></p>
<p>Let's start with the Feb meeting since it features...Howard Lewis Ship!</p>
<p></p>
<p>Join us for a <a href="http://clojure.org/" target="_blank">Clojure</a> talk by Tapestry author <a href="http://www.codetown.us/profile/HowardMLewisShip" target="_blank">Howard Lewis Ship</a>.</p>
<p>Here's a little about what Howard plans to cover:</p>
<p>"Clojure is a fascinating new(er) programming language, created by Rich Hickey, that combines the ubiquity and performance of Java with the power and expressiveness of Lisp. Clojure excels at interesting problems, especially those involving concurrency, but can also freely interoperate with standard Java. Clojure developers quickly become passionate about this odd little hybrid: it's easy to learn, yet deeply powerful, and is at the heart of a vibrant and exciting eco-system of tools and libraries."</p>

<p><span>Howard Lewis Ship, the creator and lead developer for the Apache Tapestry project, is respected in the Java community as an expert on web application development, dependency injection, Java meta-programming, and developer productivity. He has well over twenty years of full-time software development under his belt, with over fifteen years of Java. He cut his teeth writing customer support software for Stratus Computer, but eventually traded PL/1 for Objective-C and NeXTSTEP before settling into Java.
