Devoxx 2012: Bam! Stephen Chin rode into the Wednesday morning Keynote with his NightHacking.com motorbike. It was an exciting start to the conference days! They say that change is inevitable and you cannot never ever truly predict exactly what will happen in the future. This is common knowledge. Perhaps, the only way we can be […]
