When I was at DevDays in The Hague last month, all my talks were recorded. Until now I wasn’t aware that something was actually going to happen with these recordings :-) Now the first one of them has been published on Channel 9, here:

I’m wondering if my FP in C# talk will also be published - while I was there, that one seemed to be the most popular one I did. I’ll ask!

Update: Apparently all presentations will be posted there, but it takes some time. Okay, let’s wait :-)

And another great conference, another set of slides and samples. Thank you for being there!

Taking efficiency one step further - F#

Functional Programming in F#

Functional Programming in C#

Not much time right now for a full description of that great conference. But I wanted to get the slides and samples up here for those of you who want to have another look. Here you go:

Concurrency using functional patterns in C#

Have fun!

The first stop of my Europe roundtrip is completed and I’m now in Slovenia for NT konferenca 2009. Last Friday I did a guest lecture at campus02 in Graz (which is in Austria, btw – had a few people asking me that <g&gt, on functional programming in C#. I think there were around 40 people there, everything went smoothly and everybody was very interested - great!

Here are the complete slides and samples which were used in the lecture: GrazGuestLectureMay2009.zip

Thanks to everyone who was there – I enjoyed myself and I hope you did, too!

I’m leaving tomorrow for a little roundtrip.

First, on Friday, I’m doing a guest lecture about Functional Programming in C# at Campus 02 in Graz, Austria.

From there I’m moving on to Slovenia (on Saturday, May 23rd), for NT Konferenca 2009. I’ll be doing two sessions there, on C# as well as F#. I’m also exhibiting for DevExpress – but of course, DevExpress related questions and conversations are always welcome anyway!

Finally I’ll be in The Hague from Wednesday 27th, for DevDays 2009. Three more sessions to do there, again on C# and F#. I’m also going to sit down with Marianne, Daniëlle, Sara, Mirjam and Sandra and record an interview for Sod This (my podcast – check it out!). Some of those girls have recently worked together to get the Women in Technology issue of the Dutch SDN Magazine out the door. Good work!

If you read this and you think you should be on Sod This as well, talk to me! We’ve recently recorded a few interviews at TechEd in LA and I’m sure it’ll take a little while before we have time to release enough new episodes to go through all the material, but I’ll still take any opportunity I get to talk about interesting things to interesting people! (And of course, if all you want is to have a coffee or beer with me, or to bitch about something technology related, let me know anyway <g>.)
