Scala Days had a tenth anniversary in 2019. It is an annual conference about Scala, which I like to visit, when possible. There is some confusion as to what is meant: Where this the 9th, 10th or 11th Scala Days? Where the first Scala Days 9, 10 or 11 years ago? The truth is, that …

Clojure Exchange 2018
I visited Clojure Exchange 2018 in London. Since there was only one track and I attended all talks, it is easy to just refer to the schedule. Interesting topics, that came up multiple times in different flavors where immutability, stories of building real life applications, music, java and clojure and the transition, clojure script, emacs …
Devoxx Kiew 2018
In the end of 2018 the number of conferences is kind of high. A great highlight is the Devoxx BE in Antwerp. But it has now five partner conferences in London, Paris, Krakow, Morocco and Kiev. So I decided to have a look at the one in Kiev. How was it in comparison to the …
Devoxx Antwerp 2018
In 2018 I am visiting a few conferences. A great highlight is the Devoxx BE in Antwerp, which I had the privilege of visiting 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017. As it should be, it is not just the same every year, but content and speakers change a bit from year to year. Some …
Scala Days 2018
In 2018 I visited Scala Days in Berlin with this schedule. Other than in previous years I missed the opening keynote, which is traditionally on the evening before the main conference starts, because this is not so well compatible with my choice of traveling with a night train, especially because I did not want to …
ScalaUA 2018
About a week ago I visited Scala UA in Kiev. This was the schedule. It was a great conference once again, as it was already in 2017 and I really enjoyed everything, including the food, which was great again… 🙂 I listened to the following talks on the first day: Tales from the trenches, developing …
Scala Exchange 2017
I have visited Scala Exchange („#ScalaX“) in London on 2017-12-14 and 2017-12-15. It was great, better than 2015 in my opinion. In 2016 I missed Scala Exchange in favor of Clojure Exchange. This time there were really many talks about category theory and of course its application to Scala. Spark, Big Data and Slick were …
Devoxx 2017
I was lucky to get a chance to visit Devoxx in Antwerp the sixth time in a row. As always there were interesting talks to listen to. Some issues that were visible across different talks: Java 9 is now out and Java 8 will soon go into the first steps of deprecation. The step of …
