SUMMARY:Fundamentalist Functional Programming

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Erik Meijer (Microsoft). This talk argues that 

 fundamentalist functional programming-that is, radically eliminating all

  side effects from programming languages, including strict evaluation-is

  what it takes to conquer the concurrency and parallelism dragon.

SUMMARY:The Art of Klingon Programming

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Paul Fenwick (Perl Training Australia). A good 

 programmer needs many qualities: intelligence, foresight, dedication, an

 d the ability to fight off a hundred angry targh armed only with your ba

SUMMARY:Open APIs of The New York Times

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Derek Gottfrid (The New York Times). We have em

 barked on a mission to share more of what we do on the development side 

 of The Times. So far, we’ve done that via conference presentations, open

 -source software, blog posts and (most recently and probably most import

 antly) our APIs. We see our site as more than just a source of news and 

 information: it’s a platform on which news and information become buildi

 ng blocks.

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Kirrily Robert (Metaweb), Yoz Grahame (Linden L

 ab), Jason Douglas (Metaweb). The term "Folk Computing" was coined 20+ y

 ears ago to describe how people learn to program by copying and experime

 ntation.  Learn how open source licenses, hosted development environment

 s, and other folk programming concepts lower barriers to entry and help 

 people get up to speed as coders.  We'll also be showing off some modern

  folk programming platforms, from Yahoo Pipes to the OLPC and beyond.
