Ode to developers

Keynote

Technology is about humans and their big ideas.

From the jacquard loom maker using punch cards to an inventor captivated by cogs and steam, and an electrical engineer who melded electrical circuit laws with eccentric English mathematical logic, there have been countless other philosophers, material scientists, artists, dreamers, and tinkerers contributing to the world of technology. The modern programmer embodies this rich diversity.
