DevReach 2010

DevReach 2010
   As it turns out October is a conference-heavy month. Just ten days after Java2Days 2010 I visited DevReach 2010. Like last year the event was held at the Arena Cinema in Mladost, Sofia – a venue that is really big and comfortable. The presentations are projected on actual cinema screens and the audience sits in comfortable cinema seats. The conference had visitors from most countries from the Balkans and some visitors from more distant countries like Germany and Norway and they were not speakers. This meant that even Bulgarian speakers did their presentations in English.

Java2Days 2010

Java2Days 2010
   On 7th and 8th of October I had to attend the Java2Days conference. I had to because I won a free pass from some lottery and well… you do not miss events like that if they are free, do you? That would be like throwing away a hundred euro...

Software Development Is Like Archaeology

Software Development Is Like Archaeology
   For years I have thought that software development is very similar in feeling to archaeology.  As a software developer you get to work on that legacy project that is ancient. The ancient developers are gone and you are on your own...

Spirit of Burgas 2010

Spirit of Burgas 2010
   Знам, че орди читатели с нетърпение очакват да прочетат мнението ми за Spirit of Burgas 2010, но заради болест и по-важни ангажименти (да се разбира игра на StarCraft II) тази статия се забави значително. Но както много пъти съм казвал аз забавям, но не забравям!

   Тази година влизането беше организирано по-добре и протече много по-плавно от миналата. Имаше разместване на някои сцени като за радост салса сцената липсваше. Може би поради по-мощно озвучение на главната сцена някои от близките по-малки сцени бяха заглушавани. За радост най-важната сцена, а именно Jack Daniels рок сцената не страдаше от такъв проблем. За съжаление за пореден път тя както и главната сцена бяха разположени на пясъка, което много ме дразни, но явно няма друго достатъчно голямо място в района, а пък изглежда природоидиотите се радват нещата да се случват на плажа...

Happy Programmers' Day 2010

Happy Programmers' Day 2010
   It is the 256th day of the year again which means that everyone whose job is to create bytes that move other bytes around can celebrate.

   I remember several years ago the Wikipedia article for Programmers' Day was created and deleted and then created and deleted again. There was a heated discussion if the holiday really exists. Some people said that their companies observe it and have some related activities therefore the holiday is real. However others pointed out that someone can invent a holiday like this one and put it on Wikipedia to give it credibility so the article should not be allowed. Luckily the holiday was accepted as official professional holiday in Russia which gives it enough physical world credibility so the article is now up again.

   Let the celebrations begin!
