Dr Michael Spivey\, Oxford University Department of Computer Science w ill be presenting this talk. Summary below:
\n\nA compiler written in its own in put language that generates code for a non-existent machine? Surely that's hopelessly impractical! I will talk about my recent experiences in improv ing GeomLab\, a simple functional language\, by using a bootstrapped compi ler to generate code for the Java Virtual Machine. Good results are surpri singly easy to obtain.
\n\nAfter the talk we will be heading down to the Lamb an d Flag for drinks and 'intellectual discussion' with Dr Spivey - anyone is welcome to join us\, we may even buy you a drink.
\n\nIf you don't know where t he department is there are handy directions here: http://www.cs.ox.ac.uk/contact/directions .html. Once you have found the department enter the shadowy door behin d the bins in http://g.co/maps/p4nqr. Then follow the signs =]

But we can still try!\n\n=== WHAT IS IT? ===\n\nThe idea is sim ple:\n\n#1 -- Pick a topic\;\n#2 -- Prepare a VERY SHORT presentation\, an d\n#3 -- Deliver it.\n\nIn Step #1\, the only constraint we suggest (but w ill not enforce)\nis that the topic is something pertaining to computers i n general:\nfrom a short introduction to your favourite esoteric pet progr amming\nlanguage\, to a hilarious tale about why you think UNIX userland t ools\nare rubbish\, or even a post-structuralist\, Derrida-esque analysis of\n"2001: A Space Odyssey" and the topic of intelligence and machines\,\n anything goes!\n\nRe Step #2\, I suggest the absolute\, hard time limit is 5 MINUTES\; this\nwill be strict\, and we will make sure you will be heck led if you go on\na second longer. An extra 2 minutes will be allocated to questions. Oh\,\nand a timer will be provided!\n\nAnd\, finally\, for Ste p #3: if you wish to use slides\, we will provide\na computer\, running so me fancy operating system made by Microsoft\, a PDF\nviewer\, and most pro bably Microsoft PowerPoint as well. We can probably\nplug your own laptop in on the data projector (yes\, there will be one of\nthem!)\, but I would n't bet on it.\n\n=== ORIGINS ===\n\nThe idea of lightning talks was first implemented in a Python conference\,\nalthough it seems Perlistas (yes\, Perl programmers\, and my pun is terrible)\nhave trademarked the idea. Her e's some (wise\, unlike their horrendous\nprogramming language) advice\, a pparently stemming from experience:\n\n---> http://www.perl.com/pub/2004/0 7/30/lightningtalk.html\n\n=== WHY ARE WE DOING THIS ===\n\nThere are many reasons.\n\nQuite a few of us seem to have some sort of 'techical experie nce' in\nvarious technologies\; it seems like a good idea to start communi cating\nto each other what we're doing outside Oxford but within computers : you\nnever know whom you might excite!\n\nFurthermore\, it would be a go od idea to practice our talking: no matter\nthe sort of profession\, job o r vocation most of us will follow after\nleaving Oxford\, it will most pro bably involve some requirement for\n'talking skills.' This is a good oppor tunity to practice an extreme\nside of your ability to speak to an audienc e.\n\nFinally\, if we keep the atmosphere informal enough\, it will be a g ood\nlaugh. You'll get probably get to hear some interesting things\, or h eckle.\nAnd if you speak\, you'll get to say something interesting\, or be heckled.\nBoth are excellent opportunities to practice our repressed hool iganism and\nstretch the limits of our self-confidence!\n\n=== WHO & WHERE ===\n\nAs usual\, the Oxford CompSoc.\n\nThe Place: St Catz' JCR Lecture Theatre\n\nAs always\, instructions will be provided in good time\, for th ose who haven't\nyet showed up to any of our events\n\nThe Time: WEDNESDAY of WEEK 4 (02 Nov)\, 8:15pm - 10:00pm\n\nThis implies we could accommodat e up to approximately 10 speakers.\n(Note that the termcard has put this e vent down on Thursday. Maybe\nit is time to publish the full errata for it ...)\n\n=== I WANT TO SPEAK ===\n\nExcellent\; then show up!\n\nIf you can \, do e-mail us in advance about your wish to speak. It will still be\nfin e if you show up without notice\, though.\n\n\nSo\; have a very good weeke nd!\n\n\nBest\,\n\nAlex DTEND;TZID="GMT Standard Time":20111102T220000 DTSTAMP:20120222T200030Z DTSTART;TZID="GMT Standard Time":20111102T200000 LAST-MODIFIED:20111102T221406Z LOCATION:St Catz JCR Lecture Theatre PRIORITY:5 SEQUENCE:0 SUMMARY;LANGUAGE=en-us:Lightning Talks TRANSP:OPAQUE UID:040000008200E00074C5B7101A82E00800000000605104577F82CC01000000000000000 0100000003B2CF1F9275A5B4383E3771731486C9F X-MICROSOFT-CDO-BUSYSTATUS:BUSY X-MICROSOFT-CDO-IMPORTANCE:1 X-MICROSOFT-DISALLOW-COUNTER:FALSE X-MS-OLK-ALLOWEXTERNCHECK:TRUE X-MS-OLK-CONFTYPE:0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CATEGORIES:Business CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20111004T092033Z DESCRIPTION:This event is only open to members - information about membersh ip at the end of the email.\n\n* Please RSVP to president@ox.compsoc.net b y Thursday of Week 3 if you wish to attend the dinner as places are limite d. *\n\nRecent Oxford graduates and senior executives from the Technology division will discuss their experiences: from what a typical day involves\ , to careers paths on offer\, and the application process.\n\nWhether you are looking to apply this year\, or working in this area is just on your h orizon\, this should be an excellent opportunity to find out more.\n\nBoAM L will be hosting this event (and buying us dinner) at Quod on High Street \, the plan is to meet there at about 19.00.\n\n DTEND;TZID="GMT Standard Time":20111101T210000 DTSTAMP:20120222T200030Z DTSTART;TZID="GMT Standard Time":20111101T190000 LAST-MODIFIED:20111101T221846Z LOCATION:Quod PRIORITY:5 SEQUENCE:0 SUMMARY;LANGUAGE=en-us:Bank of America: Merill Lynch.
