Erik Meijer: Rebel with a Cause

March 4, 10 //
Comments Off

Over thousands of years, language has evolved in order to provide mankind a mechanism for making it easier to communicate with one another. Today, the world is filled with a wide variety of languages, some of which are radically different from one another, while others bear striking similarities. In addition to improving interpersonal communications, however, languages have evolved to facilitate the transfer of information, instructions, and intent between people and machines.

Understanding, designing, and evangelizing many of these languages, and democratizing the programming methodologies within them, is Erik Meijer. Erik is a legendary figure in the programming language design community and one of Niner Nation’s favorite personalities. Today, tune in and meet the man behind the code; some of Erik’s fascinating personal and professional histories may well surprise you. The great Robert Hess moderates this latest edition of Behind the Code.

Enjoy.

PS: Erik will be speaking at MIX10!

Sure, sure. MIX is mostly all about the great keynotes, sessions, networking, and all the awesome content that is going to make your brain hurt in a good way, but that doesn’t mean you can’t go out for a good time while you’re in Sin City! On this, our last Countdown to MIX10 show, @anyware and @ritzy get advice from THE cocktail evangelist, Robert Hess, who tells us where to find a mean cocktail in Vegas. If we’re not at the conference, you might find us bellied up to a bar somewhere, and if you do, maybe your next round will be on us.  See ya in Vegas!

This is our last show for MIX! Thanks all for your tremendous help!!!
