How can they do it? How can Josh Bloch and Bob Lee keep coming up with such great programming puzzlers year after year? They can't! In this, the eighth installment of the perennial crowd pleaser, Click and Hack the Type-It brothers are truly scraping the bottom of the barrel. But some of the dregs they come up with may still astonish, delight, and educate. Either that or you can have a good laugh at their expense. There's only one way to find out... Come to "Java Puzzlers —Scraping the Bottom of the Barrel." And come early—as always, overripe fruit will be given to the first fifty attendees :-)
Do I need to say that you should RSVP early for this one? In case you missed similar talks at Google I/O or OSCON Java, you don't want to make the same mistake again.
As always, food/drinks/giveaways will be provided by our sponsors.
Note that this event is taking place at Square (110 5th St @ Mission) thanks to our new host, Bob Lee.
