Lightning talks – The higlights
At the end of each day there is an hour of lightning talks, 5 minutes per person and you can ramble on about whatever strikes you.
The highlights for me were the geek-my-ride talk and the SQL magic talk.
Geek my ride consists of a Mazda R8 (or something sporty like that) that has an inbuilt computer, 3G data uplink and some usb ports that connect to the engine management system. The cool thing was that he SSH’ed into his car while giving the talk. He could read out Voltages, Air intake, speeed, etc.
The second cool thing was the guy who used bizarre SQL to create fractals as a resultset and solved the travelling salesmen problem using pure SQL.
