Business, venture capital, Ruby and the Fringe
2 Oct, 2008 | Written by Frank Carver | under Information
A thoroughly enjoyable presentation from RubyFringe, one of the best I have ever watched.
It starts with a few minutes of demonstration of a reasonably cool music tool, but the real meat is in the presentation which follows – a fast paced, insightful and downright humorous rant about a wide range of topics from Leonardo daVinci to mountain lions, web applications and venture capital.
For years Frank Carver has been paying attention to the strange world of convergent technology. During that time he has discussed and researched broad subject areas, come to some surprising conclusions, produced and distributed digital media, scattered ideas and opinions like sparks from a firework, and above all consulted for businesses both large and small to help develop and deploy successful systems, services, and products in this highly complex arena.

The best part is how he tries to get the code working but it won’t compile and he changes it and it won’t compile and so on. Funny. Dynamic languages are excellent.
