Ignite Sessions
summary
Reactive demos show a live Twitter feed via twitter4j, filtering for “java” and English to push tweets instead of polling; streaming model claims reduce waiting. Large-scale sentiment work processes ~50 million Reddit comments (~31 GB raw) with Apache Spark, finds Tuesday most positive and Sunday most negative. Sketchnoting argues hand-drawn five-shape visuals boost retention and focus. High-speed sailing quotes 40 knots (~75 km/h) and 70k km round-the-world races. Lego trains run Java/Scala/Akka on raspberry pi, include camera, RFID and servo switches, and survive—after three Pis sacrificed—to provide live control and autopilot.
