There were good tips in here, and ad-hoc!
Nicely given, despite being ad-hoc!
I was curious to hear about growing a team, as I am trying to do right by my people.
I did not realise the speaker was n0xie, the talk delivered was excellent and incredibly insightful.
An excellent talk on the subject. The data presented, and the way it was presented was above and beyond.
Perfect visuals, a perfect talk on a really bleak subject, and the speaker was awesome :)
Nice overview of the history, and speaker had a spot on delivery.
I loved this talk, it went above my head quite a few times, mess with my brain, and gave me some new ideas.
Just spot on.
Thank you!
Good talk, acoustics were bad, and a bit of adaptation for that would make this a great performance.
Haha, it was a cool talk. Reminded me of last year's DomConf's Haskill grammars talk.
There was clearly more material than there was time for, and I think I would have gotten more out of it if I were a regular Erlang or Scala dev. However I feel the speaker did quite well showing how Pony is special in the way things can be both mutable and immutable (that they can change throughout the code, rather than setting it by type in the beginning), how things can mostly only go one-way (from mutable to immutable), how this makes ponylang safe from race conditions and the speaker could only hint and how it works well in distributed systems (though did mention that's still being worked on).
Talks like this are why I like DomConf!
