RIP strangeloop </3

- code_biologist 2y ago"have you tried rubbing a database on it" feels like a spiritual sibling.
- abletonlive 2y agoHopefully nothing. I’ve been to three and it’s a huge self congratulatory waste of time for everybody. Like most software conferences
- sitkack 2y agoSturgeon's Law is fractal, I have also been to three and don't regret it. Your frame of mind shapes an experience as much as the actual experience.
- Grosvenor 2y agoI mean, I expect as time goes on the number of people who get the reference goes down. Things get diluted. It slowly goes from a "Here's some very cool esoteric thing, that you can use" for people that write business systems in prolog, to "here's how to connect workaday language with workaday db in a slightly unique configuration". edit: I looked at the videos. 10 years ago the talks were Rich Hickey and "Production prolog". Did Douglas Hofstader ever speak at strangeloop? I know he doesn't actually like computers.
