Enterprise Geeks Podcast – Programmers’ Valentines

by on February 16, 2012 at 3:35 am

If that doesn't say "I Love You", I don't know what does

Season 4 Episode 11

Warning: After several weeks of no technical problems with Pamela Call Recorder for Skype, the software has decided to go crazy once again. This podcast contains a slight skipping echo on my voice only. Unfortunately since Craig couldn’t join us this week, we didn’t get a backup recording and must post with this technical problem.  I apologize for the technical snafu but figured the only other alternative was to not post at all this week.  If anyone has suggestions how to fix this in Pamela, I’m certainly listening.

  • Dice Salary Survey puts ABAP at the top of the list
  • NetWeaver Release Levels – we explain the difference between NetWeaver 7.01, 7.02, 7.03, 7.10, 7.20, 7.30 and 7.31, plus talk about the future beyond NetWeaver Enhancement Packages
  • Programmers’ Valentine’s Day – using the comparison between relationships and programming languages, we each share stories about our first programming loves
    • A little impromptu discussion broke out about JavaScript in the server side as used in the SAP HANA XS Engine
  • Nvidia 3D Vision Glass – I give a quick review of the gift I got from my Valentine’s Sweatheart

And that's about as political as we get...

Season 4 Episode 10

We have  a wide range of topics this week as we come about as close to political as we care to when we discuss Newt Gingrich and his plans to establish a permanent moon base.  We also talk about new self guided bullets and what it must be like to write software for them.  There’s also the little matter of the Facebook IPO and the big news that Craig is now back working for SAP.

That's one path to Geek Fitness

In the spirit of New Years’ resolutions, we focus on the hot topic of how fellow eGeeks can get/stay in shape. Dan and I share some of our tips as well as some of the tools we use.  Please feel free to share your own tips in the comment section.

Craig also found an interesting article from mid-2011 which talks about the top gadgets of the year so far.  We use the power of hindsight to comment on (ridicule) these top choices.

    • The year of the ultraportable?
    • Tablet overload?
