The library was devel oped at Yammer and has been adopted by Simple (formerly BankSimple) and the Gilt Groupe. We will discuss how Gilt is using Dropwizard and why w e adopted the library. \;\n \;\n---------- \;\n \;\nSpeaker: Sean Sullivan \;\n \;\nSean is a software engineer specializing i n e-commerce systems\, web services development\, and mobile application s. Sean works on back-office applications at the Gilt Groupe and has co ntributed to various open source projects\, including the OAuth Java lib rary and OpenID4Java. \;\n \;\n---------- \;\n \;\nPJUG meet ings start with some time to eat and socialize (pizza and beverages are provided)\, followed by the featured speaker\, then Q&\;A\, discussio n\, sometimes a drawing to give away swag. :) \;\n \;\nThough we l ike knowing how many people to expect\, you don't *have* to RSVP\, on Up coming or otherwise.

(alt. title - ed.) \;\n \;\nThis evening we'll discuss some principles and a dvantages of functional programming\, and how the Java programmer can ta ke advantage of FP techniques... even in a largely imperative code base. We'll end the discussion briefly talking about functional programming e xtensions to Java and JVM-based functional languages\, e.g. Clojure. \;\n \;\nSpeaker: Howard Abrams \;\nWhile once infected by functio nal programming\, has been programming Java web systems for Portland sta rtups for the last fifteen years. Currently working at the Gilt Groupe i n their PDX office. Lately he has been rediscovering his FP roots\, and thought he'd share his experiences with the PJUG community. \;\n \;\nIf he does his job right\, and the discussion gets riotous\, we'll r etire to SomeDay Lounge for more conversation and even more beer. \;\ n\n\nTags: Java Functional Scala Clojure\n\nImported from: http://calaga tor.org/events/1250462983 URL:http://www.pjug.org SUMMARY:PJUG - Portland Java Users Group LOCATION:Gilt Groupe Portland: 222 NW 5th Ave\, 2nd floor\, Portland Oreg on 97209 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
