Presentations Cont.

Well, the presentation went well. I was able to deliver exactly what I wanted to the class with the meager slides that I had created, which is exactly how I feel it should be done. The slides ARE my cue cards, dammit!

After class went to a LUG meeting, which pretty much bored the daylights out of me. They did a long presentation on the programming language “Clojure”, which is just another variation on a theme and to me does not seem all that practical since it requires the JVM to run and a number of other things running at the same time just to get off the ground. There are some bonuses for using languages that compile into proper binaries or are dealt with through a light-weight interpreter.
