Hi all,
On our first meetup this year Willem Vermeer and Joost Heikoop will present their thoughts on 'Typed Actors - Should I start using them?' and 'Kotlin vs Scala'.
Come, see and discuss!

_Dank aan Ordina voor het hosten van deze meetup!_

**Typed Actors - Should I start using them?** - Willem Vermeer
Typed actors are finally here and, for all of you lovers of typesafe programming, just their name is enough to get you excited! But here you are, maintaining a large scala/akka codebase – should you immediately migrate all your actors to typed actors? What are the benefits and will your code look shinier when you're done? How are you going to sell this internal refactoring to the boss?

In this talk, you will learn about attempts to step into the world of typed actors. What was the impact, what was learned, what is still missing and what was the end result? The talk is aimed at those who are interested in Akka development, have not made the move to typed actors yet but may be wondering what they are missing.

**Kotlin vs Scala** - Joost Heikoop [and Urs Peter]
We have almost 20 years of Scala experience between us and have experience with many other languages. Recently we have jumped onto Kotlin, because it look very promising as Java competitor. Of course there is no one size fits all solution. We will show how the two languages compare and explain why and when, you should pick one over the other. Or maybe should consider some else all together.
