This month Melbourne Scala will be hosted at Zendesk in the CBD.
Presenting is Timothy McCarthy - Scala Developer at REA Group

Description in Timothy's own words;

"In this talk I'll reflect on error handling in functional programming, and make the case that the standard IO monad can be improved in this regard. I'll outline the strengths of error handling in a bifunctor IO type, using ZIO as an example.

If we have time, I'll discuss the performance advantages of ZIO over other options and how it uses the reader monad to model effects."

Arrive from 5:45 for pizza, drinks and conversation, talks start around 6:30pm. As always, newcomers most welcome.

Hope to see you there,
-Luke
