Puissance de Clojure

I would like to thank Stephano Zacchiroli and Sylvestre Ledru for inviting me to talk about the Power of Clojure yesterday at IRILL.

IRILL

IRILL is an unique organization comprised of computer science researchers from several leading European universitities and organizations collaborating to create a vibrant FLOSS ecosystem. It was an honor to present my view of how Clojure combines the advantages of Common Lisp and Java without the disadvantages of either. This was a tough crowd, experienced in functional programming and very critical of dynamic typing... There were many good questions and we had an active discussion.

I combined talking points with live hacking while presenting from within Emacs :) You can download my "presentation" here:

Grazie Mille et Merci!
