August 1st - The Four Laws of Time with Joe Albahari

[Michael Minutillo]

Our next meeting will be Thursday August 1st and Joe Albahari is going to teach us The Four Laws of Time. 

Here's what you can expect:

You've heard, time and again, that multithreaded programming is impossibly difficult. I'm going to tell you that everything you've heard is wrong: concurrency itself is reasonably easy. The complexity arises from allowing concurrency logic to mix with application and business logic. And from confusing time-based concerns with concurrency-based concerns.

 

Solving this properly requires a new way of thinking about time, concurrency and space. We need to treat time as a dimension in its own right and embrace the Four Laws of Time. Join us as we hop into the Tardis and take a time-centric look at C#, asynchronous functions and Reactive Extensions.

What: The Four Laws of Time with Joe Albahari
When: Thursday August 1st, 5:30pm - 7pm
Where: Enex 100 Seminar Room, Level 3, 100 St Georges Terrace, Perth
Cost: Free. All Welcome!

Joe Albahari is the author of LINQPad and C# 5.0 in a Nutshell.

Please forward this notification to everyone at work and I'll see you there.

P.S. I always suspected that the TARDIS was powered by LINQPad.
