The FP experience in those languages is never quite as smooth as it is in functional-first languages\, but it’s still appreciated when that’s the style of code you want to write. \nThe Roc programming language\, which has historically been a purely functional programming language\, is planning to add some new features to support an imperative style of programming. The imperative experience in Roc will never quite be as smooth as it is in imperative-first languages\, but there are some situations when an imperative style genuinely seems like the best fit for the problem at hand. \nSome of the new features are familiar – a `return` statement\, `for` loops\, and opt-in reassignable variables – but the headline feature is “Purity Inference.” With Purity Inference\, functions can be either pure or effectful\, and the type system tracks which is which so you never have to guess. Both styles of function are called the same way\, so there’s no IO/Promise/Future/Task wrapper. But that’s not all…for the full plan\, you’ll have to see the talk! \nBio: Richard is the creator of the Roc functional programming language\, the author of Elm in Action from Manning Publications\, and the instructor for several Frontend Masters workshops: Introduction to Elm\, Advanced Elm\, and Introduction to Rust. He currently works at https://zed.dev on the open-source Zed code editor. \n\nClaude Jager-Rubinson is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting. \nTopic: Houston Functional Programmers\nTime: Jan 17\, 2024 07:00 PM Central Time (US and Canada)\nEvery month on the Third Wed\, until Nov 20\, 2024\, 11 occurrence(s)\nJan 17\, 2024 07:00 PM\nFeb 21\, 2024 07:00 PM\nMar 20\, 2024 07:00 PM\nApr 17\, 2024 07:00 PM\nMay 15\, 2024 07:00 PM\nJun 19\, 2024 07:00 PM\nJul 17\, 2024 07:00 PM\nAug 21\, 2024 07:00 PM\nSep 18\, 2024 07:00 PM\nOct 16\, 2024 07:00 PM\nNov 20\, 2024 07:00 PM\nPlease download and import the following iCalendar (.ics) files to your calendar system.\nMonthly: https://uhd.zoom.us/meeting/tZcrceGuqTkoH9Lz2KOcwwZqYRmqgda4Bhi1/ics?icsToken=98tyKuGrqD0iHNOXshyBRpwqBI_oWe7wtnpBgvpxhk3OLCNEdTnnD9BPI7V7EYzy \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://uhd.zoom.us/j/83668672256?pwd=Wld3QXhkczVMaktYYmJQUnp2aG5VZz09 \nMeeting ID: 836 6867 2256\nPasscode: recursion \n— \nOne tap mobile\n+13462487799\,\,83668672256# US (Houston)\n+12063379723\,\,83668672256# US (Seattle) \n— \nDial by your location\n• +1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n• +1 206 337 9723 US (Seattle)\n• +1 213 338 8477 US (Los Angeles)\n• +1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n• +1 602 753 0140 US (Phoenix)\n• +1 669 219 2599 US (San Jose)\n• +1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)\n• +1 720 928 9299 US (Denver)\n• +1 971 247 1195 US (Portland)\n• +1 470 381 2552 US (Atlanta)\n• +1 646 518 9805 US (New York)\n• +1 646 558 8656 US (New York)\n• +1 651 372 8299 US (Minnesota)\n• +1 786 635 1003 US (Miami)\n• +1 267 831 0333 US (Philadelphia)\n• +1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n• +1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n• +1 470 250 9358 US (Atlanta) \nMeeting ID: 836 6867 2256 \nFind your local number: https://uhd.zoom.us/u/khzdUKqt3 \n— \nJoin by SIP\n• 83668672256@zoomcrc.com \n— \nJoin by H.323\n• 162.255.37.11 (US West)\n• 162.255.36.11 (US East)\n• 115.114.131.7 (India Mumbai)\n• 115.114.115.7 (India Hyderabad)\n• 213.19.144.110 (Amsterdam Netherlands)\n• 213.244.140.110 (Germany)\n• 103.122.166.55 (Australia Sydney)\n• 103.122.167.55 (Australia Melbourne)\n• 149.137.40.110 (Singapore)\n• 64.211.144.160 (Brazil)\n• 149.137.68.253 (Mexico)\n• 69.174.57.160 (Canada Toronto)\n• 65.39.152.160 (Canada Vancouver)\n• 207.226.132.110 (Japan Tokyo)\n• 149.137.24.110 (Japan Osaka) \nMeeting ID: 836 6867 2256\nPasscode: 416074723 URL:https://hfpug.org/event/richard-feldman-the_functional_purity_inference_plan/ LOCATION:PROS\, 3200 Kirby Drive\, Suite 600\, Houston\, 77098\, United States END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20240918T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20240918T210000 DTSTAMP:20260419T142603 CREATED:20240313T193824Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240814T205543Z UID:803-1726686000-1726693200@hfpug.org SUMMARY:Raúl Chouza\, "Gleam - Introduction to the language and platform" DESCRIPTION:Abstract: A brief introduction to the Gleam programming language\, we’re going to talk about what makes it “click” as a language but also about the underneath platform/s that make it work.

His research program has three tracts: methodological research on developing formal methods of qualitative research\, focusing on qualitative comparative analysis (QCA); sociological research on the relationship between the global political-economy and aesthetic form; and health services research on the conditions that facilitate/hinder the success of interventions designed to improve patient outcomes.\nJohn Cavnar-Johnson “High performance JSON processing in F#”\nSo\, sometimes I do care about performance. One of those times is when I need to process millions of JSON messages as quickly as possible. Join me for a very quick introduction to writing high performance code in F# using Microsoft’s Utf8JsonReader.\n\nBio: John Cavnar-Johnson is a lead software developer at Crane Worldwide Logistics where he gets to write F# every day. In the last 30 years\, he’s been a corporate developer\, IT sysadmin\, trainer\, software development manager\, IT enterprise architect\, consultant\, and entrepreneur\, but mostly he’s spent his time solving problems and hooking stuff together. In his spare time\, he likes reading\, drinking craft beer\, and playing with his grandkids. \n\n\nChristopher Bremer\, “Active Patterns for Lazy Developers”\nActive Patterns are one of my favorite parts of F# and I’m excited to share all the dumb ways I use them. In short\, an active pattern is a function that allows custom destructuring of an object (i.e. in a switch statement). But they are so much more! They compose! They are algebraic! They can replace gross nested if-else statements and anemic domains models!

UID:745-1710961200-1710968400@hfpug.org SUMMARY:Jeffery Olson\, "System R­—A Practical Lambda Calculus Made for Extensibility in Rust" DESCRIPTION:Abstract: This will be a presentation on lambda calculi\, their differing varieties and corresponding expressiveness\, and a particular implementation: System R—a lambda calculus\, written in Rust\, built for extensibility and practical use cases. \nMany programming languages (especially in the world of FP) we use today are implemented atop layers of academic theory modeled as lambda calculi. Advances over the last 9+ decades have given us a rich toolset with which to develop sophisticated systems suitable for everyday use. \nWhether it’s Hindley-Milner\, dependent types\, linear types\, or algebraic effects the academic literatures often communicate advances in computer science via a lambda calculus\, often starting from a popularly-known base point\, extended in novel ways appropriate to the domain. \nSystem R is a lambda calculus implementation that enables the creation of more advanced calculi that translate-downward back into System R\, which is intended to operate as a “bottom”-level bytecode. System R is itself a System F dialect (in the sense of TAPL et al). The base Kind & Type system include a rich set of primitive values (robust numerics\, bytes\, etc)\, and the Curry-Howard correspondence tells us it is a suitable bytecode-level substrate for converting to an infinite number of computing backends (wasm\, Rust/C/Fortran/Forth\, AOT\, etc). \nAs mentioned above\, the unifying concept for the above capabilities is that the entire toolchain is built for extensibility. \nYou can learn more at https://github.com/olsonjeffery/system_r \nBio: Jeffery Olson is currently a Staff Engineer at GMV Syncromatics in Houston\, TX.  His path to programming passes through an early enthusiasm for Linux/FOSS software since the late 90s\, a stint in the Army and a tech career starting in Seattle before moving to Houston in 2014.

Byrd\, "A New Relational Language" DESCRIPTION:Abstract: I’d like to talk about a new relational programming language I’ve just started working on\, attempting to combine the pure relationality of miniKanren with better control of search and constraint solving.  In particular\, the language should make it easier to implement efficient program synthesis algorithms.  Following Kowalski’s famous paper\, `Algorithm = Logic + Control`\, the language will separate logical specification from control via a tactics language.  This language is inspired by Dan Friedman’s original vision of miniKanren\, suggestions by Michael Ballantyne to create this type of language\, and conversations with Greg Rosenblatt\, Nada Amin\, Jason Hemann\, Dmitri Boulytchev\, and many others in the miniKanren community. \nBio: Will Byrd is a scientist at the Hugh Kaul Precision Medicine Institute at the University of Alabama at Birmingham.  He is co-author of both editions of ‘The Reasoned Schemer’\, and one of the creators of the miniKanren relational programming language.  Will is also one of the creators of mediKanren\, a system for bio-medical reasoning based on miniKanren\, and funded under the NIH NCATS Biomedical Data Translator Project. \n\nClaude Jager-Rubinson is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting. \nTopic: Houston Functional Programmers\nTime: Jan 17\, 2024 07:00 PM Central Time (US and Canada)\nEvery month on the Third Wed\, until Nov 20\, 2024\, 11 occurrence(s)\nJan 17\, 2024 07:00 PM\nFeb 21\, 2024 07:00 PM\nMar 20\, 2024 07:00 PM\nApr 17\, 2024 07:00 PM\nMay 15\, 2024 07:00 PM\nJun 19\, 2024 07:00 PM\nJul 17\, 2024 07:00 PM\nAug 21\, 2024 07:00 PM\nSep 18\, 2024 07:00 PM\nOct 16\, 2024 07:00 PM\nNov 20\, 2024 07:00 PM\nPlease download and import the following iCalendar (.ics) files to your calendar system.\nMonthly: https://uhd.zoom.us/meeting/tZcrceGuqTkoH9Lz2KOcwwZqYRmqgda4Bhi1/ics?icsToken=98tyKuGrqD0iHNOXshyBRpwqBI_oWe7wtnpBgvpxhk3OLCNEdTnnD9BPI7V7EYzy \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://uhd.zoom.us/j/83668672256?pwd=Wld3QXhkczVMaktYYmJQUnp2aG5VZz09 \nMeeting ID: 836 6867 2256\nPasscode: recursion \n— \nOne tap mobile\n+13462487799\,\,83668672256# US (Houston)\n+12063379723\,\,83668672256# US (Seattle) \n— \nDial by your location\n• +1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n• +1 206 337 9723 US (Seattle)\n• +1 213 338 8477 US (Los Angeles)\n• +1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n• +1 602 753 0140 US (Phoenix)\n• +1 669 219 2599 US (San Jose)\n• +1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)\n• +1 720 928 9299 US (Denver)\n• +1 971 247 1195 US (Portland)\n• +1 470 381 2552 US (Atlanta)\n• +1 646 518 9805 US (New York)\n• +1 646 558 8656 US (New York)\n• +1 651 372 8299 US (Minnesota)\n• +1 786 635 1003 US (Miami)\n• +1 267 831 0333 US (Philadelphia)\n• +1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n• +1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n• +1 470 250 9358 US (Atlanta) \nMeeting ID: 836 6867 2256 \nFind your local number: https://uhd.zoom.us/u/khzdUKqt3 \n— \nJoin by SIP\n• 83668672256@zoomcrc.com \n— \nJoin by H.323\n• 162.255.37.11 (US West)\n• 162.255.36.11 (US East)\n• 115.114.131.7 (India Mumbai)\n• 115.114.115.7 (India Hyderabad)\n• 213.19.144.110 (Amsterdam Netherlands)\n• 213.244.140.110 (Germany)\n• 103.122.166.55 (Australia Sydney)\n• 103.122.167.55 (Australia Melbourne)\n• 149.137.40.110 (Singapore)\n• 64.211.144.160 (Brazil)\n• 149.137.68.253 (Mexico)\n• 69.174.57.160 (Canada Toronto)\n• 65.39.152.160 (Canada Vancouver)\n• 207.226.132.110 (Japan Tokyo)\n• 149.137.24.110 (Japan Osaka) \nMeeting ID: 836 6867 2256\nPasscode: 416074723 URL:https://hfpug.org/event/william-e-byrd-new-relational-language/ LOCATION:Improving (Hybrid)\, 10111 Richmond Ave\, Suite 100\, Houston\, TX\, 77042\, United States END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20240117T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20240117T210000 DTSTAMP:20260419T142603 CREATED:20230815T000745Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240108T192506Z UID:737-1705518000-1705525200@hfpug.org SUMMARY:Eric Normand\, "Four Domain Modeling Lenses" DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Software design is about making decisions within a complex\, multidimensional space. Instead of relying on rules that cannot cope with the complexity of design\, we should focus on seeing our software from various useful perspectives. Each “lens” will help you extract more information about the problem your software is trying to solve. That added information will help will help you make better software design decisions. The four lenses we cover in this talk are composition\, scope\, platform\, and runnable specifications. \nThis talk builds upon material recently presented in https://ericnormand.me/speaking/func-prog-sweden-2023.  While not required\, Eric suggests that it would be beneficial to view this talk beforehand.  HFPUG will therefore host a screening of the talk at Improving starting at 6pm; Eric will then join us at 7pm.  (The 6pm screening probably won’t be streamed via Zoom; Eric’s 7pm talk definitely will be.) \nBio: Eric Normand has been programming functionally since 2001.

Javascript isn’t really one of our core competencies\, but we needed a more robust client than\, say\, HTMX. One of the devs suggested we look into Bolero. We prefer F# for our technical applications\, and we were already familiar with some of the design principles espoused by the authors. Four months later\, we are in production and quite pleased with the results!\n\nBolero is a library that brings functional Model-View-Update[^3] to the Blazor ecosystem. In short\, the MVU architecture attempts to decrease the complexity of modern asynchronous web apps. The application state (the “model”) is stored immutably. Updates to the model are queued in a global message buffer\, and all data flows in a single direction.\n\nIn this talk\, I’ll walk through a sample Bolero application[^4]. I’ll cover ways to avoid standard MVU pitfalls and show how to implement some nice UX features (debounce\, polling\, time travel(?!)). I’ll show you how the discipline of MVU combined with the flexibility of F# (and the .NET ecosystem) simplifies UI development for a non front-end dev like me!\n\n[^1]: That’s AngularJS 1.18\, the original[^2]\, not Angular 16.9\n[^2]: yes\, in 2023.\n[^3]: AKA the Elm architecture. There are other MVU architectures (Maui\, SwiftUI\, Redux) that take slightly different approaches.\n[^4]: clbrem/bolero-agents\n\nBiography: Chris is the software simulation manager at NOV ReedHycalog in Conroe\, TX\, where he manages a team of engineers and data scientists. His group supports the drill bit design team by providing on demand wellbore simulation and analysis. Prior to working in software\, Chris was a research mathematician studying algebraic geometry and representation theory at University of Chicago and Louisiana State University.\n\nThis is a hybrid meeting.

In this talk\, Richard discusses the incremental adoption strategy he’s been using at Vendr to introduce Roc to the company’s existing backend. \nThis has involved two different approaches\, each with their own pros and cons: one\, building a separate standalone Roc service\, and two\, creating the ability for the existing Node.js TypeScript backend to import and call Roc functions directly inline. The “direct import” approach is usually found in compile-to-X languages like Clojure and Elm\, but in Roc’s case\, this can be done using either WebAssembly or Native Node Addons. (We tried both approaches in production\, and the talk will discuss the pros and cons of each.) \nBio: \nRichard is the creator of the Roc functional programming language\, the author of “Elm in Action” from Manning Publications\, and the instructor for several Frontend Masters workshops: Introduction to Elm\, Advanced Elm\, and Introduction to Rust. He is currently a Principal Engineer at Vendr\, where he’s working on introducing Roc to the company’s backend to complement its longstanding Elm frontend. \n\nThis is a hybrid meeting.

It introduces PBT in F# using FsCheck\, emphasizing the importance of invariants in constructing effective tests. While FsCheck is the specific platform used\, the concepts and principles presented are broadly applicable to any Property Based Testing system. \nBio: Ahmed Hammad is a Senior Full Stack Developer at Improving. He’s been developing software for more years than he’d care to remember.

This is a critical task for many asynchronous systems – Kafka for example has a timer system which helps it decide when it ought to next check its queues for new input. But there are other excellent examples of highly scalable and accurating timing systems such as the one implemented in the Erlang run time system. Erlang uses “timer wheels” which are inspired by a classic systems paper from 1987 – we are going to talk about the paper and how its implementation in Erlang enables massively concurrent and accurate timing for events. \n\nhttp://www.cs.columbia.edu/~nahum/w6998/papers/sosp87-timing-wheels.pdf\nhttps://blog.acolyer.org/2015/11/23/hashed-and-hierarchical-timing-wheels/\n\nBiography: Jade Allen has been a software developer for over 20 years.

The talk will start with why I adopted OCaml\, and why I took the risk as a newcomer to get tooling in a previously tiny corner (Windows) of an uncommon language (OCaml). I’ll spend some time talking about the technical challenges\, how I’ve overcome them\, and what still needs to be done. I’ll also talk about the software development kit I will be releasing in 2023\, and demo some of its upcoming OCaml-powered features that unsurprisingly work on Windows. Finally\, I will explain how to de-risk hiring employees and contractors when you use languages like OCaml. \nBio: Jonah has been in the fraud analytics and computer vision fields for almost two decades.

But it has failed. After years of design advice\, we still face unreadable code\, expensive changes\, and growing refactoring backlogs. Domain modeling is a deeper approach. Instead of focusing on the superficial quality of code as software design does\, domain modeling focuses on encoding deep meaning. If you encode a powerful model\, your code will be more expressive\, with fewer corner cases\, and flexible enough to accommodate change. In this talk\, I will outline the primary skills needed to successfully model a domain. \nBio: Eric Normand has been programming functionally since 2001. He aims to help the world make better software one model at a time. He lives with his family in Madison\, Wisconsin.

Rather: “It simply is. Take it moment by moment\, and you will find that we are all\, as I’ve said before\, bugs in amber.” \nThe world of side effects is the world we live in and care about when we use software: we query databases\, deposit money\, purchase movie tickets\, and so on. In software development\, the world of IO is much like the dynamic world of Billy Pilgrim: pregnant with possibilities; full of threats and promises.  And yet the world of pure functions is populated by changeless mappings of inputs to outputs. Perhaps our dynamic world of IO side effects is incompatible with functional programming\, at least in its “pure” form. But what if instead we took a Tralfamadorian approach to software development? What if we suspended the treacherous world of IO in amber? \nThough there are many technical aspects to the IO monad\, in this talk we’ll focus on one central concept in pure functional programming: referential transparency. In particular\, we’ll explore the history of this concept\, tracing its roots to the philosophy of language. We’ll take a look at fascinating cases in which certain expressions of language introduce referentially opaque contexts. Once we’ve seen the tools philosophers have used in attempt to regain transparency and how the IO monad mirrors these moves\, I hope we’ll all learn to stop worrying and love the IO monad. \nBio: Anthony is a former academic philosopher who has stumbled his way into software development. He is enthusiastic about functional languages such as Haskell\, Scala\, and F#. He has been a practicing Emacs devotee for over 10 years. Against all odds\, all his interests start with the letter ‘p’: philosophy\, photography\, poetry\, programming\, and (above all) pizza. \n\nClaude Rubinson is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting. \nTopic: Houston Functional Programmers\nTime: Nov 16\, 2022 07:00 PM Central Time (US and Canada) \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://uhd.zoom.us/j/97915182790?pwd=THl6SHdRU3daSVB3dzhzOEtMRmU1Zz09 \nMeeting ID: 979 1518 2790\nPasscode: recursion\nOne tap mobile\n+13462487799\,\,97915182790# US (Houston)\n+12532158782\,\,97915182790# US (Tacoma) \nDial by your location\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n+1 602 753 0140 US (Phoenix)\n+1 669 219 2599 US (San Jose)\n+1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)\n+1 720 928 9299 US (Denver)\n+1 971 247 1195 US (Portland)\n+1 206 337 9723 US (Seattle)\n+1 213 338 8477 US (Los Angeles)\n+1 646 518 9805 US (New York)\n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York)\n+1 651 372 8299 US (Minnesota)\n+1 786 635 1003 US (Miami)\n+1 267 831 0333 US (Philadelphia)\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n+1 470 250 9358 US (Atlanta)\n+1 470 381 2552 US (Atlanta)\nMeeting ID: 979 1518 2790\nFind your local number: https://uhd.zoom.us/u/avN934S2b \nJoin by SIP\n97915182790@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: 979 1518 2790\nPasscode: 378790519 \n  URL:https://hfpug.org/event/anthony-adrian-bugs-in-amber-or-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-io-monad/ LOCATION:Zoom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20221019T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20221019T210000 DTSTAMP:20260419T142603 CREATED:20220425T161829Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220927T184641Z UID:555-1666206000-1666213200@hfpug.org SUMMARY:John Cavnar-Johnson\, "The 'a list" DESCRIPTION:“One more thing\, we need the new system to produce our invoices/estimates/contracts/whatever as PDFs.” \nProducing Portable Document Format files is one of the gnarliest problems I have to deal with on a regular basis. Tonight I’m introducing a new OSS project to make it a little simpler for F# developers to render PDFs from line of business application. Inspired by FsExcel (which in turn was inspired by Elm’s way of handling HTML markup)\, I’m using the humble F# list type as a developer interface to PDF generation. Even if you don’t use F# or need to render PDFs\, the tools and techniques used (lists\, tagged unions\, records\, and pattern matching) are widely available in functional languages and broadly applicable to DSL style solutions. \nBio: John Cavnar-Johnson is a software developer working for Global Custom Commerce. In the last 30 years\, he’s been a corporate developer\, IT sysadmin\, trainer\, software development manager\, IT enterprise architect\, consultant\, and entrepreneur\, but mostly he’s spent his time solving problems and hooking stuff together.

Okapi was inspired by F#’s Giraffe\, and is meant to be a lightweight\, simple tool used for rapid prototyping and learning server-side web development. \nBio: My name is Rashad. I’m a web developer at MasterWord Services where we use Haskell to build an ERP system. I’ve been using Haskell for 4 years and I’m a big fan of the functional programing paradigm. Feel free to send me an email if you want to learn more about how Haskell is used in web development. \n\nClaude Rubinson is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting. \nTopic: Houston Functional Programming User Group\nTime: Sep 21\, 2022 12:00 PM Central Time (US and Canada) \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://uhd.zoom.us/j/93020100934?pwd=allraXgwWXh5OXZ1K2dJUkg1L2RqQT09 \nMeeting ID: 930 2010 0934\nPasscode: recursion\nOne tap mobile\n+13462487799\,\,93020100934# US (Houston)\n+12532158782\,\,93020100934# US (Tacoma) \nDial by your location\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n+1 602 753 0140 US (Phoenix)\n+1 669 219 2599 US (San Jose)\n+1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)\n+1 720 928 9299 US (Denver)\n+1 971 247 1195 US (Portland)\n+1 206 337 9723 US (Seattle)\n+1 213 338 8477 US (Los Angeles)\n+1 646 518 9805 US (New York)\n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York)\n+1 651 372 8299 US (Minnesota)\n+1 786 635 1003 US (Miami)\n+1 267 831 0333 US (Philadelphia)\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n+1 470 250 9358 US (Atlanta)\n+1 470 381 2552 US (Atlanta)\nMeeting ID: 930 2010 0934\nFind your local number: https://uhd.zoom.us/u/abgEz6CDK \nJoin by SIP\n93020100934@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: 930 2010 0934\nPasscode: 818714641 \n  URL:https://hfpug.org/event/rashad-gover-hypermedia-driven-web-apps-in-haskell/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20220817T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20220817T210000 DTSTAMP:20260419T142603 CREATED:20220425T162103Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220816T014204Z UID:557-1660762800-1660770000@hfpug.org SUMMARY:Steven Proctor\, "The Interceptor Pattern" DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Interceptors are a pattern in the Clojure community that help with state management\, error handling\, and asynchronous programming\, with a bit of aspect orientation mixed in.

It’s currently in a pre-release stage of development\, but it already has a lot of interesting characteristics. This talk walks through three code bases for the same application – one written in Roc\, and the other two in popular imperative languages (one dynamically typed and one statically typed)\, and shows how Roc is pushing the boundaries of what’s been possible in traditional dynamically typed or statically typed languages. \nBio: Richard is the creator of the Roc functional programming language\, the author of “Elm in Action” from Manning Publications\, and the instructor for several Frontend Masters workshops: Introduction to Elm\, Advanced Elm\, and Introduction to Rust. Since 2013 he’s worked at NoRedInk\, a company that builds widely-used software for English teachers using functional programming languages.

The goal is to do whatever is necessary to eliminate needless complexity and make building software a delightful experience. \nThis talk is an overview of Unison and its two main ideas. Firstly\, that a Unison codebase is structured immutable data rather than a mutable bag of text files.
