Interviews: Ask James Gosling About Java and Ocean Exploring Robots

Posted by samzenpus on from the ask-away dept.

James Gosling is probably best known for creating the Java programming language while working at Sun Microsystems. Currently, he is the chief software architect at Liquid Robotics. Among other projects, Liquid Robotics makes the Wave Glider, an autonomous, environmentally powered marine robot. James has agreed to take a little time from the oceangoing robots and answer any questions you have. As usual, ask as many as you'd like, but please, one question per post.

    What weapon do you choose? Whose blood will be spilled upon the sand?
