Bummer, they didn't use the screen cap video I sent, so there's 
no code shown or anything for quite long sections, which makes it 
quite hard to follow :(

Who would be the best person to contact about this?

I guess that would be Andrei, or Chuck from UVU.

I was just going to say this, but it looks like you beat me to 
it. Still pretty excellent talk though, even if I missed some of 
what you were talking about at the end.

Yeah, the whole last 10 or so mins of Adams talk is almost 
impossible to follow.
Which is a pity, as it's very interesting up to that point!

I haven't watched it at all yet, what part? I can probably just 
fill you in in writing.

(Eventually, when I have a few hours to waste, I'll type up a 
transcript too.)

After the last slide in your presentation, you begin to give a 
demo of the code. From then on, nothing on screen is shown :/

Wha?! I thought it was John Colvin that talked about OpenCL? Was 
Adam talking about it as well?!

Yeah I seem to remember since Adam said his last talk was so low 
level he wanted to go high level this time, just to keep it 
real....

No, I didn't, I just briefly showed off the code of my api 
explorer and http client wrapping by jsvar.

My first reply was originally to John Colvin, but then wobbles 
refers to Adam's talk as well. I was just referring to Colvin 
when I mentioned Open CL.

Can you post last week's TWiD also, the interview with Dmitry?  I 
don't use reddit, but I think it'd go over well there and be good 
publicity for D.

Looks like you've destroyed C++ concepts with this talk.

Yes. Certainly, while concepts may have their uses, there are 
cases where they simply don't work, and if you try and make all 
metaprogramming conform to them, you're going to lose out on a 
lot of power and flexibility. Concepts simply don't scale well 
enough.

It's kind of unfortunate for C++ because D has the benefit of 
hindsight. Ranges instead of iterators, DbI instead of 
Concepts/Generic Programming, static if/version/templates instead 
of the preprocessor, modules instead of textual #include... the 
list goes on.

Great! :-)

You know, I think I'm slightly disappointed they cut the moment 
when the USB presentation controller cut out early in my talk.  I 
kind of thought that was fun. :-P
