The Talks
How I Use Haskell for 3D Printing by Joe Warren
"Programmable CAD" is a category of software where objects are defined using code.
This talk covers
How I’ve used programmable CAD to design parts for 3D printing
Why I think Functional Languages are uniquely suited for programmable CAD
Why I decided to write a programmable CAD framework
Why this lead me to explore the GHC Web Assembly backend
And how the Scala Logo lead me to decorate a Christmas tree
Lazy Streams with Constant-Time Access by Andrew Lelechenko
We discuss a data structure for lazy infinite compact streams with cache-friendly O(1) indexing and its applications to memoization, dynamic programming, cellular automata and recursive functions.
What else?
Sign up here!
May go to the pub afterwards
Will try to have recording but can't guarantee it
