tech ramblings

OK, now I’m up to date.
Today I missed the first couple of keynotes but I got there in time for a few.
I got to hear about HP’s guide to the Open Source world.  In 25 words or less: Open Source is like the ocean.  Proprietary software is like the desert.   If you combine the two and don’t give back to the community it’s like living in a swamp.  If you give back then it’s like living in Venice.
I am not really a fan of the trend towards vendor keynotes at OSCON.

The one on Computational Origami was much, much cooler.  I can’t find the photos online but will provide a link when I can.
