Show #119 - The Theory of Evolution

Shows 4 Comments »

In this show we start off talking about Battlefield 3.  Once we scratch the gaming itch we start talking about coding.  Dave talks about how he was working through an interesting server to server communication. He goes on to explain how he was able to mass insert tens of thousands of rows.  Not just insert them but insert them in just a couple seconds.  He then explains how using cfspreadsheet is not the best solution for dealing with large amounts of data.

We then go on to revisit something that came up during the Adobe Max 2011 ColdFusion unconference fishbowl session.  We talk about different ways to evolve as a developer.  We talk about going to conferences, attending meetups, contributing to open source projects to name a few.  Dave also talks a little about his experiences in this area.

We also talk about some upcoming guests we are trying to nail down.  Also, we are still on the lookout for a producer.  If you are interested contact us.
