As someone who works in the semiconductor industry, one of the most exciting things happening right now is the development and emergence of persistent/storage class memory (PCM/RRAM/3DXP/NVDIMMs). The implications of a persistent alternative to DRAM is immense and besides fundamentally changing compute/memory/networking/storage architectures it will also change programming models and SW stacks as we know them today.…
I like to watch presentations of technical talks while I'm doing cooking/housework. Do you have any link, perhaps on youtube, that gives me an intro?
The convergence of 3 big ideas in graph computing: 1. D4M: Dynamic Distributed Dimensional Data Model http://www.mit.edu/~kepner/D4M/ GraphBLAS: http://graphblas.org Achieving 100M database inserts per second using Apache Accumulo and D4M https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13465141 MIT D4M: Signal Processing on Databases [video] https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUl4u3cNGP62DPmPLrVyY... 2. Topological / Metric…
What are you working on?
Container orchestrators becoming mainstream is something I'm very excited about. Tools like DC/OS, Nomad, Kubernetes, Docker Swarm Mode, Triton, Rancher make it so much easier to have fast development cycles. Last week I went from idea, to concept, to deployed in production in a single day. And it is automatically kept available, restarted if it fails, traffic is routed correctly, other services can discover it, the…
The way we educate our kids hasn't changed a lot in centuries. MOOCs are great but completion rate is a real and yet unsolved problem. I believe the biggest advancement in the field of education is going to come with VR. With VR, we can dramatically reduce the cost of "learning while doing", which should be the only way of learning. With AI, we can provide highly personalised paths for learners. VR and AI technologie…
I'm 100% with you on this. I've been saying this since VR became mainstream, I'm dying to start something in the e-learning space that takes advantage of VR/Augmented Reality but have no idea where to start.

You're describing the DAW and plugins, but wouldn't you need a midi keyboard, a groovebox or a drum computer, to actually make those beats? https://www.thomann.de/gb/roland_tr_8.htm
In Bioinformatics/DNA sequencing I'm probably most excited by Illumina's push toward a 100USD genome. Their current scale-up of instruments I think means that they're looking to aggressively push into diagnostic applications. The lack of competition is unfortunate however.
Not really my main field, but in web technology it seems that severless architectures such as Amazon Lambda will be a pretty big game changer in the near future: Lambdas are lightweight function calls that can be spawned on demand in sub-millisecond time and don't need a server that's constantly running. They can replace most server code in many settings, e.g. when building REST APIs that are backed by cloud services…
There is no cutting edge with serverless on AWS.

The presentations from the recently held SNIA PMEM summit would be a great start for a high level intro: http://www.snia.org/pm-summit https://www.youtube.com/user/SNIAVideo/videos
