[Research] Java talk at Google

[Andrew W. Moore]

Now I realize that back in the old days the word "Java" was almost as
welcome as the word "Agent" in our lab meetings, but I guess times change,
so just in case you're interested I wanted to let you guys know about this
talk at Google Pittsburgh...

Thanks,

Andrew

Google Pittsburgh presents our second annual Java Puzzlers TechTalk with
Josh Bloch!

When: Thursday, June 28th, 5:30 pm- 7:30 pm (Doors open at 5:30pm, talk
starts at 6pm)

Where: 4720 Forbes Avenue, Lower Level of the Collaborative Innovation
Center (details below)

Josh Bloch presents yet another installment in the continuing saga of Java
Puzzlers, consisting of eight more programming puzzles for your
entertainment and enlightenment. The game show format keeps you on your toes
while the puzzles teach you about the subtleties of the Java programming
language and its core libraries. Anyone with a working knowledge of the
language will be able to understand the puzzles, but even the most seasoned
veterans will be challenged. The lessons you take from this session are
directly applicable to your programs and designs. Some of the jokes may even
be funny.

Bio: Joshua Bloch is Chief Java Architect at Google, author of the
bestselling, Jolt Award-winning "Effective Java" (Addison-Wesley, 2001), and
coauthor of "Java Puzzlers: Traps, Pitfalls, and Corner Cases"
(Addison-Wesley, 2005). He was previously a Distinguished Engineer at Sun
Microsystems, where he led the design and implementation of numerous Java
platform features including JDK 5.0 language enhancements and the Java
Collections Framework. He holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science from
Carnegie-Mellon University and a B.S. in Computer Science from Columbia.

Details: The Collaborative Innovation Center has an internal parking garage
accessible from Neville Avenue (intersection of 5th Ave and Neville);
another option includes parking at the Carnegie Museum and then walking
across the bridge towards CMU's campus.
