Epson HX-20 in 1983, transition to IBM PC, writing games in Basic, fast calculations in C, using Java in ecommerce projects, starting to build jprofiler, JVMPI and JVMTI, jprobe and OptimizeIT, freshmeat.net, theserverside.com, jprofiler is written in Swing, podcast about btrace, inter JVM profiling in two windows, async sampling vs. jvmti sampling, Project Loom challenges, a nice looking Swing UIs with flatlaf, how to deal with millions of threads, creating Java installer and launcher, the ugly Napkin LaF, the 2-pizza team
