Сходил для интереса на конфу для Java-разработчиков, хотя не пишу на Java уже давно (а на хорошем уровне не писал никогда).
Было много всего интересного, но особенно меня впечатлила лекция об истории развития этого языка. Java, на секундочку, вероятно самый распространённый язык программирования в мире с точки зрения количества разных устройств, на которых он присутствует. То есть буквально один из столпов современной цифровизации всего человечества.
Так вот, когда он только зарождался, компания Sun Microsystems наняла себе в помощь несколько сотен разработчиков из России, бОльшая часть которых сидела у нас в Питере — это были выходцы из матмеха СПбГУ. Более того — в какой-то момент именно питерская ячейка стала крупнейшей по числу инженеров, превзойдя даже ту, которая располагалась в Калифорнии. И люди периодически ездили в США, чтобы синхронизировать свою работу с тамошним офисом (пересылали diff репозитория архивами по почте!).
Потом Sun купила Oracle и постепенно ушла из России. Но вклад наши внесли, оказывается, очень существенный.
