Best thing about this presentation.. Twitter’s Scala based Hadoop library is called ‘Twadoop’.

Q: What’s heaven for you?

“Maybe you’re waiting for validation. You’re waiting for that someone you respect to say, ‘Yes, you bright person, you should do that thing.’ It was your parents when you were a kid and then it was your first boss, but now it simply needs to be you.” — Micheal Lopp
