I gave a new talk “A tour of language landscape” at the recent NDC Oslo and then again at PolyConf.
Judging by the reactions on Twitter the talk was well received, thank you everyone for your kind words!
One of the most inspiring talks at @polyconfhq by @theburningmonk: http://t.co/cTSLC5lZB3

“Learn a new paradigm not a new syntax” @theburningmonk hits bulls eye at #ndcoslo

Learning should be an intense as a workout! @theburningmonk @ #ndcoslo and the first 20 hours matter the most. Forget the 10,000h rule!!

Idris’s dependent types make invalid states unrepresentable @theburningmonk #ndcoslo #pokayoke pic.twitter.com/5mCSfWMbp8

@theburningmonk is giving a real tour de force of programming languages that tweets do not do justice. Go see the video later!! #ndcoslo

@theburningmonk finally a dependent type example (zipWith) that did not make me think Ivory Tower! #ndcoslo

Über-cool example by @theburningmonk showing how |> (pipe) makes code read as we read normal English #ndc2015
— Torben Hoffmann (@LeHoff) June 17, 2015
. @theburningmonk just blew my mind with F# type providers

@theburningmonk at #NDC: research shows that c-like syntax hurts the ability for newcomers to learn. So true.
