Event Description

We're honored and delighted to have Tony Barr, creator of the SAS programming language and founder of Barr Systems here in Gainesville, making an intriguing presentation on his latest project, "A Model Of Reality".


"It is my belief that a better model for knowledge representation is to use
pictures to represent types, objects, and functions. The unification of set
theory, functions, and the type/ object model is a minimalistic formalism that
is sufficient for both type and object representation. It can be shown to be one
to one with the structure of languages such as C# and Pascal."

AWS Lambda Rust Support Reaches General Availability

AWS has elevated Rust support in Lambda from experimental to generally available, empowering developers to create high-performance, memory-safe serverless applications. This milestone enhances developer confidence, backed by AWS support and SLA. While it offers speed comparable to C++, challenges such as lengthy SDK compile times and increased binary sizes remain key considerations.

Developing and Deploying Software in a Sustainable Way

Sustainable APIs benefit most from minimalism, Jochen Joswig said at OOP Conference . Deployment should consider energy, usage, carbon intensity, hardware acquisition. Remote work, long device lifespans, and green office practices can lower emissions. Efficient CI, selective builds, smaller artefacts, and optimized assets can further reduce energy use.
