Transforming Programming
Please log in to watch this conference skillscast.
We're a generation of programmers who grew up with object orientation and imperative programming. When we transition to languages such as Elixir (and even some modern idioms in JavaScript), some of our old reflexes are no longer appropriate. Others are deeply useful, but in different and surprising ways. So, as we work towards the ideal of "programming by transforming", we mustn't forget to transform our thinking, too.
(ps: reducers are objects...)
