He committed a crime of writing a Java EE book, which may hunt him for the rest of his life. He is an open source contributor and a winner of the JBoss Community Recognition Award in 2013 for his contributions to ShrinkWrap. He is currently one of the 40 CEOs at SoftwareMill, a fully distributed company with no main office and a completely flat organization structure. He presented on GeeCON, Devoxx Poland, Confitura and other events. Additional info: I have spoken at: * GeeCON 2015 * Devoxx Poland 2015 * Confitura 2015 * JDD 2016 * Codemotion Warsaw 2016 * 2x Pozna\u0144 JUGtoberfest * GeeCON Prague 2016.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Q. You\u2019re speaking at Voxxed Days Bucharest in March. Tell us a bit about your session.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>During the session I&#8217;ll try to introduce the basics of Machine Learning. Following a bit of theory I&#8217;ll show a simple live coding example of Apache Spark.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q. Why is the subject matter important?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Machine Learning and its related areas are currently rapidly proliferating. They are being applied to new domains, where their effects sometimes appear to be \u201cmagic\u201d. Given this, it\u2019s good to know how they work :).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q. Who should attend your session?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mainly developers, but anyone who haven\u2019t had any opportunity to become familiar with machine learning yet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q. What are the key things attendees will take away from your session?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Theory, code, but also takeaways on which attendees can start building further competence of ML.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q. Aside from speaking at Voxxed Days Bucharest, what else are you excited about for 2017?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The new edition of Scalar &#8211; a scala conference organized by our company SoftwareMill, but also other events I will have opportunity to attend to &#8211; e.g. JBCNConf.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Through his career, Micha\u0142 Mat\u0142oka worked with C, Java, forgotten lands of Java EE, Spring, Scala and Big data.
