Nix package manager for easier collaboration and development
------------------------------------------------------------
In a journey from using simple shells so we don't pollute our system,
through package management, packaging, and whole system and
cloud configuration; we'll explore the features of nix the language,
the package manager, and the environment.
Row Polymorphism in Action: How you can mix OO, FP and not end up with Scala.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Building on the talk last year on Polmyorphic Variants, we will look at the
O in OCaml where O is Object. A rarely used technique in the OCaml toolbox
that is interesting for both how OO is implemented and for the structural
polymophism.
Underlying both pieces is an almost accessible polymorphic record system.
