In The Brain of Miles Sabin: Encoding Unboxed Union Types in Scala
Encoding Unboxed Union Types in Scala
Scala has a highly expressive type system, but it doesn’t include everything you might find yourself hankering after, at least, not as primitives. In this talk, advanced Scala expert Miles Sabin will show how we can encode union types in Scala, in the course of which I’ll have an opportunity to shed a little light on the Curry-Howard isomorphism and show how it can be put to work for us.

If you've ever wanted to know how to play cool and practically applicable tricks with Scala's type system, then this is the place to be.
