+title: Building Conversational Speech Annotation Tool in Clojure
+type: Talk

+- name: Paweł Stroiński
+  biography: Paweł first started writing code 25 years ago in Turbo Pascal. He's programmed professionally using Delphi, XSLT, VB.NET, C#, JavaScript, TypeScript, and Clojure. Has experience on the entrepreneurial side and passion for music. A proud father of a six years old.

+abstract: This talk will be a story of inheriting a bespoke text editor with annotation features written in ClojureScript and turning it into a number of things. It will include horror stories of debugging in-house Specter macros running in browser as well as calming stories of how nice it is to work in a code with a good test coverage even if it is difficult to approach, or how enjoyable it is to create interactive audio annotation tooling in ClojureScript.

+- name: Felix
+  biography: Felix left a biochemistry major after an "Intro to Programming"-course during his second year completely stole the show. Some zigzagging later he's now been working in the industry using functional languages since 2017. Clojure became his favourite side project tool early on and 2.5 years ago, when he joined JUXT, it has been his full-time language as well.

+abstract: Diving head first into shadow-cljs and the surrounding ecosystem can be daunting. What if we could incrementally introduce Clojure into our existing JS applications from the safety of our favourite frontend frameworks like React or Svelte to tame its more complex logic - hopefully with the help of a trusted REPL

+speakers:
+- name: Philippa Markovics
+  biography: Philippa works as UI Designer and Frontend Lead at Nextjournal, mostly working on Clerk at the moment. Her main interests are in how we can make programming more tangible and data science more accessible. When she’s not working, you can find her planting food plots somewhere in the Austrian countryside.

+- name: Martin Kavalar
+  biography: Martin Kavalar is a co-founder at Nextjournal, a hybrid between startup and research lab trying to improve programming. Nextjournal makes a polyglot computational notebook with a focus on reproducibility and a variety of open source tools, including Clerk, a programmer's assistant for Clojure.

+abstract: "Starting in 2021, we naively took on the task of bringing mission-critical legacy systems in the automotive logistics sector into the modern era. \r\n\r\nThis experience report covers our eventually successful live migration from the IBM AS/400 to Clojure and Datomic. We look at both the technical and human organizational challenges we faced and share our failures and learnings along the way.\r\n\r\nThousands of globally unique 8-character column names, green-screen terminal UIs, skunk work projects and personal drama —  this talk has it all!"

+title: The Wonders of Abstraction
+type: Keynote
+speaker-img: /img/speakers/eric-normand.jpg
+speakers:
+- name: Eric Normand
+  biography: Eric Normand has been programming functionally since 2001. He teaches, speaks, and writes. He consults with companies to help them build better software one function at a time. He lives with his family in Madison, Wisconsin. You can find his writing and other projects at [ericnormand.me](https://ericnormand.me/).

+abstract: "Fish are to water as programmers are to abstraction. We swim in it all day, barely aware of it. We say \"abstraction\" all the time, but have we thought about what it means? \r\n\r\nI've spent 20 years asking how computers--that move electrons around in a complex circuit--do work useful to humans. Abstraction is the key. In this philosophical talk, we explore this wonderous process called abstraction. We'll wade through the everyday uses of the term, paddle out to formal definitions, and dive into why some abstractions give us incredible leverage. Along the way, we'll see how abstraction is at the heart of getting computers to do useful work. I hope you leave with a deeper appreciation of the wonders of programming."
