Just finished watching Triangulation 245, featuring James Gosling, the creator of Java, one of the most popular programming languages in the world, and the Java Virtual Machine.
Gosling staring right into your soul
He was interested in programming at an early age. The idea of creating Java came from observing how everything was switching from hardware to software, writing code instead of inventing new machines. I also want to point out that he is Canadian.
In this video of the Triangulation Podcast the men invited is James Gosling one of the inventors of Java. His passion in the computers came in a very yong age, when his father show him an old computer and James got fascinating with the device. He started to get information about that, and then in school he discover programing he started to work in satelital programing and he used to skip school a lot of times, but their teachers where happy that in such a yong age we could be gaining money in something very new in those days.
He worked in IBM, their first projects was software, the idea of JAVAcame from a small group that saw how everything was changing hardware to software, they saw that they run with problems that people that were not preper to program did.
This podcast was more difficult to understand than the past one. It was mor tectician, but the core, the story of Java was very interesting, the highs, the lows, the conflicts with google, oracle and everythins,
You can see how everything happend and what is know teaching kids to learn java, in this case Minecraft.
