nice introduction

This talk was the gem of LambdaCon 2015. The subject matter, presentation, and the speakers's unique thinking and working style made a huge impression on me. I will definitely be trying out factor in the near future!

Beatifully executed bait-and-switch. The examples were very well selected to show the beauty of mapping theoretical concepts to real-world use cases.

Short and sweet, made everyone feel welcome!

Awesome! But FP has been ignored for decades, so if it is "the current revolution but category theory will be the next" I'm afraid I'll be retired by then :)
Also I feel like category theory for me may be too abstract as a starting point. But after practicing enough FP some pattern may eventually emerge providing the necessary intuition to support reasoning in terms of category.
Great talk anyway.
