SUMMARY:Richard Feldman\, "Millions of Users\, Purely Functional Code"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  At NoRedInk we had a normal React code base. That is\, until we tried Elm – a purely functional language that compiles to JavaScript. A couple years and a couple hundred thousand lines of Elm code later\, we found ourselves with a lot more users and no runtime exceptions in the production logs from our Elm code. \nLots of companies dabble in functional programming\, but most code in the world today is imperative. In contrast\, the NoRedInk story is one of a successful business built on pure functional programming: today essentially our entire frontend is Elm\, and the majority of our traffic is handled by a Haskell service on the back-end. \nThis talk is partly about what these technologies are – so don’t worry if they’re unfamiliar! – and partly about why and how we successfully adopted them. \nBio: Richard helps create NoRedInk’s user interface. Prior to NoRedInk\, Richard architected a data visualization framework for high-throughput genomic sequencing\, built a long-form writing web app that could be brought up and used offline\, and worked for three other startups—two of which he co-founded. He has a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and an MBA\, both from Washington University in St. Louis. He nods approvingly when grocery store express checkouts are labeled “10 items or fewer” instead of “10 items or less.” \n\nDue to Delta\, we are returning to virtual meetings as of this month.  Please join us on Zoom: \nClaude Rubinson is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting. \nTopic: Houston Functional Programming Users Group\nTime: Aug 18\, 2021 07:00 PM Central Time (US and Canada) \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://uhd.zoom.us/j/93647401926?pwd=ZjdtVmYweFQrR0lkay85MWJKTGRkdz09 \nMeeting ID: 936 4740 1926\nPasscode: recursion\nOne tap mobile\n+13462487799\,\,93647401926# US (Houston)\n+12532158782\,\,93647401926# US (Tacoma) \nDial by your location\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n+1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York)\nMeeting ID: 936 4740 1926\nFind your local number: https://uhd.zoom.us/u/acBwc94RDn \nJoin by SIP\n93647401926@zoomcrc.com \nJoin by H.323\n162.255.37.11 (US West)\n162.255.36.11 (US East)\n115.114.131.7 (India Mumbai)\n115.114.115.7 (India Hyderabad)\n213.19.144.110 (Amsterdam Netherlands)\n213.244.140.110 (Germany)\n103.122.166.55 (Australia Sydney)\n103.122.167.55 (Australia Melbourne)\n149.137.40.110 (Singapore)\n64.211.144.160 (Brazil)\n69.174.57.160 (Canada Toronto)\n65.39.152.160 (Canada Vancouver)\n207.226.132.110 (Japan Tokyo)\n149.137.24.110 (Japan Osaka)\nMeeting ID: 936 4740 1926\nPasscode: 736123447 \nJoin by Skype for Business\nhttps://uhd.zoom.us/skype/93647401926 \n
