Entertaining. Also I like the way he avoids dogmas and gets at core concepts in a language agnostic way so the material is accessible to a wide audience. Really enjoy listening to this hyper little dutch dude.
Accoding to wikipedia: "On Christmas 2014 Erik Meijer was diagnosed with chronic myelogenous leukemia and suffered a close to death experience for which he was hospitalized."
Ah, updated 300000 rows async but after 50 rows the connectionpool gives no new free connections anymore. Normaly the update shall return void, but gives a exception now. You tell me the connectionpool must be functional-reactive too?!
I'm not sure Erik correctly described iteratees when he said they were in a sense both observables and enumerables. He said they can send values back to the 'collection' but from my understanding these values are limited to either Cont, Done or Error states, where Cont is a function that accepts the next value from the collection, computes a step, producing one of the above three states again. Amiright?
How to understand the "nodejs programmer should understand denotation semantic, that's crazy, that should be done by the compiler."? Is there something relative with the Communicating Sequential Processes? (Async in es7 ?)
I hate steve jobs but this joke is out of bounds. If anybody laughs that he become hating himself. I think a very interesting psycoplogical thing going on there. I can see they hate themselves already for laughing the balmer joke. They are probably regreting for giving him courage to make the jobs joke by lauging the balmer joke.
