No Fluff Just Stuff

At AngularSummit West, I sat down with Daniel Zen of Zen Digital and talked about all things Angular2. Specifially what are some of the considerations for making the switch or beginning a new project using Angular2, some of the best resources to learn (it's not too late to register for AngularSummit East) as well as talking about some of the challenges unique to Angular2.

Reflecting on UberConf 2016, we dive deep into technology thinking critically about all the implications-both good and bad-of our ever evolving world. A great (and somewhat longer) philosophical discussion with NFJS speaker Brian Sletten.

We sat down with Jay Zimmerman, creator of NoFluffJustStuff to talk about the philosophy behind the tour and what to expect this year.

We're joined this week by Venkat Subramaniam digging into functional programming, why it's exciting and how you can begin to see the benefits.

This week I was able to sit down with Ksenia and talk security.

At the tail end of the Rich Web Experience, I had a chance to sit down with Doug Hawkins and talk about his work optimizing the JVM in performance critical environments with Azul Systems. We discuss garbage collection, speculative optimization and some of the tools you can use to get better insight into the performance of your application.

If you're interested in learning more about optimizing the JVM, check out ArchConf West where Doug is one of our Featured Speakers. He's also going to be giving some great talks at our flagship event, UberConf. He is also an NFJS Tour regular.

Tudor Girba joins us at ArchConf 2015 where he discusses the work he's doing to change the way we deal with code and why fundamentally, code is not text but data and can be queried as such.

We're joined by Peter Pavlovich to discuss Aurelia, why Rob Eisenburg left Google to work on it and why it's definitely worth checking out!

Daniel Hinojosa talks Scala, the importance of being multi-lingual, and in the end shares his secret for learning new languages fast!
