- dTal 6y agoDid you mean "unreasonable effectiveness"? :P I just watched that talk the other day, and boy is it insightful. Julia has cracked a fairly magical combination of features. I fully expect it to replace Python over the next 10 years. Direct link to "Unreasonable Effectiveness": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kc9HwsxE1OY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kc9HwsxE1OY
- KenoFischer 6y agoI'm of two minds about this. On the one hand JuliaCon is always quite an amazing event and it's the only place I get to see a number of wonderful people that I usually only interact with online. On the other hand I'm told there's been a few thousand registrations already, so maybe this will make JuliaCon more accessible to a much wider audience, which has always been a goal. We've had live streams and recordings in past years, but I'll be interested to see how things are different with an entirely virtual event.
- ViralBShah 6y agoGiven the huge level of interest in the online event this year, I am quite sure that we'll try to have more of an online component going forward, even as we move to physical events.
- eigenspace 6y agoAs someone who keeps saying "maybe I'll attend JuliaCon next year", I'm happy I'll be able to attend the virtual event this year, but I also really hope I get to attend a physical event in the future.
