Java creator James Gosling joins ocean robot maker Liquid Robotics
- famousactress 15y agoSounds like an awesome project to work on. Curious whether Java will make it into the tech stack.. The careers page mentions "A broad range of software development in C, C++ and C#"
- St-Clock 15y agoI'm really glad for James Gosling. It is always sad when you see these brains wandering around and not knowing what to do with their skills.
- phuff 15y agoInteresting, since he just joined google 5 months ago... http://news.cnet.com/8301-30685_3-20047787-264.html http://news.cnet.com/8301-30685_3-20047787-264.html I wonder if this is in any way related with the ongoing android litigation snafu.
- riledhel 15y agoThe article mentions his concerns about Oracle's legal battle with Google, and the use of Sun's patents for that matter. It doesn't mention Android in any way.
- phuff 15y agoYeah the article talks about the things he said after he left Oracle but before he joined Google, but is pretty light on the specifics (the "ongoing legal battle" mentioned is the Android patent snafu).
- __rkaup__ 15y agoJava + super-intelligent octopuses + underwater robots... what could go wrong? (Sorry guys, couldn't resist.)
- lani 15y agooctopuses are going to build blue boxes to hack into underwater enterprise servers to talk to their friends half an ocean floor away ....
- anamax 15y agoThe founder of Liquid Robotics gave a Stanford EE380 talk in 2009. The abstract is at http://www.stanford.edu/class/ee380/Abstracts/091028.html http://www.stanford.edu/class/ee380/Abstracts/091028.html There's a link to the video at http://www.stanford.edu/class/ee380/ay0910.html http://www.stanford.edu/class/ee380/ay0910.html .
