FYI Bloch wrote Java APIs at Sun.
-
Google: When you were writing APIs at Sun, what were you trying to achieve? Bloch was trying to make things easier to do.
-
Bloch says that in writing declarations, he sought to make APIs as short as possible, and hard to misuse.
-
I understand the importance of drawing a jury from the general population but I'm having a hard time defending that principle rn
-
And my feeling is that this jury also has no desire to defend that principle lol
-
Google: Can you explain why the APIs were being made public? Bloch: Yeah! So people could USE them.
-
Bloch is VERY animated.
-
Bloch documented all of his APIs, took great care to do so. Google asks why. Bloch: SO THEY COULD BE USED!

Google trying to introduce Joshua Bloch's book, "Effective Java."http://www.amazon.com/Effective-Java-2nd-Joshua-Bloch/dp/0321356683 …
-
Whew, Google fucked up on an evidence thing here. Oracle objecting on hearsay. The disclosed evidence was the 2008 ed. Sustained for now.
-
In 2008, Bloch was no longer employed by Sun, he was at Google. (OOF)
-
So Bloch is now just testifying as to the 2001 edition, without referring to the book itself.
-
Google asked if the book was known to his supervisors at Sun. Bloch: Yes, it was pretty much a job requirement.
-
Google: Did your book win any awards. Bloch: *exuberantly* Yes, it won a BUNCH of awards.

Java specification for Java SE 5 being admitted into evidence.
-
Alright, we're back to talking about stuff I do not understand







I'm sorry you guys, I'm doing my best -
Getting lots of @-replies about how "Effective Java" is a great book.
-
In the specification book, Joshua Bloch is thanked profusely in the acknowledgementspic.twitter.com/fkBUIVppCk
-
I think at this point the jury wishes they could just let Bloch decide the case for them
-
I'm sure Bloch feels that as well
-
BTW, this is a really crazy thing about the quirks of evidence and this case—Bloch is not an expert witness. He's testifying on facts.
-
On the facts of him making parts of on Java SE 5.
-
Like, try to wrap your head around that.
-
Speak of the devil, Oracle just objected. Oracle: Your honor, the past tense does not solve the 702 problem.
-
Alsup has harsh words for her. In a case like this, all the precipient witnesses "have specialized knowledge and skill."
-
Like a medical case full of doctors as witnesses, "I can’t stop them from talking about their art."
-
Alsup very stern, says he's not going to give on this one.
-
Oh no now we're talking about GNU Classpath
-
