18:40 "The Search for the Perfect Programming Language" - Phil Nash

New languages come and go. Some stick around. The biggest languages tend to take a while to reach maturity - by which time they may feel outdated! Rust is getting to that point. It feels both new and old at the same time. There are already newer languages looking to overtake it. And that's just in the systems languages space. Will we ever get the One True Language (spoiler: no - but that doesn't mean we can't explore the question)? What should we look for in such a language, anyway?

19:10 Pizza, Beer and more Networking
