Persistent Data Structures and Managed References

Posted by: Nathaniel Schutta on 10/28/2009

Speaking of interesting videos, Stuart Halloway has been beating the drum pretty hard for Rich Hickey’s talk: Persistent Data Structures and Managed References. I was actually in the audience (along with Glenn Vanderburg) when Rich gave this talk at QCon London and I concur with Stu – this is something you’re going to want to watch. A couple of times. Then watch it again. You’ll thank me (and Stu) later. Oh, and you really should go to QCon. I mean it, it’s a great show with some unique talks.
