π² We know Trvmp could never get a *real* Taylor Swift endorsment, but I got one! She's trying to come to my talk at the @forwardJS meetup (formerly @ReactOttawa). With a world wide audience, she knows the importance of RUM data. You want to hear learn more? Well, we hope you can join us tomorrow at Shopify's Ottawa office. We have great talks and even better networking and socializing planned. See you there! Link:

this was one of the earliest talks in my speaking career and i'm pretty proud of it even tho it didnt catch fire at the time. feel like i really nailed the problem area and had good analogies. super glad @drnugent and team gave me a shot for @forwardJS :) :) :)
Some drawbacks of a functional style:
- easy to write slow code
- easy to eat up memory
- can be more verbose
- use of Immutable data structures to guarantee purity can add API/JS bloat (see my @forwardJS talk)
more in @jertype's Software Sessions:
New @seradio with @vkhorikov on functional programming!
We focus on practical examples of:
- Immutability
- Error handling
- Avoiding null
- Preventing invalid state
Great for the functional curious!

Whenever we get back to normalcy and have an in-person @forwardJS conference you're more than welcome to wear cozy slippers. We encourage everyone to be comfortable
@switchcasebreak inspiring talk #ForwardJS! I'm also trying to turn a bad situation into a developer career. I feel that empathy and community are the engine that drives positive change. Developers have to work in teams so may as well foster those vibes before they are devs.βοΈ
I'm about to give my talk: "Homeless to Developer: The Awkward Art Of Stumbling Your Way Into A Tech Career" live @ ForwardJS. May all my jokes land & none of my hardware explode π
me: hmmm it's been a while, where's @drnugent ?

@lizziepika Your talk at @forwardJS makes me want to play with tensor flow! Sadly, I think the models are better at predicting the tone of speech than I am π€ππ₯² #ForwardJS
