PolyConf 15: Julia a fast dynamic language for technical computing / Stefan Karpinski

[@WaldirPimenta]

It's a bit hard to follow the talk with the slides portion being ahead of the video by about 25 seconds. ***** can you fix and reupload the video? Meanwhile, if anyone wants a saner experience watching this, a quick workaround is to open the same video in another tab, mute the current one and play it with a 20-25 second delay.

Waldir Pimenta Thanks for the tip!

I was about to mention the same thing. It's a great talk though, I look forward to learning about Julia; being a Python user myself, the speedup and simplicity is great.

Does anyone know what program they used at 10:00 to plot the benchmark results? Thanks.

[@Elsuisse]

+Daniel Șuteu the code of benchmarks: github.com/JuliaLang/julia/tree/master/test/perf/micro and the code of the plot: nbviewer.jupyter.org/url/julialang.org/benchmarks.ipynb

The slides are from the future! :-)

i've enjoyed it but i would be insane to consider switching into this project from a well established platform for C#, Java, or even C++, who do a tremendous job in sci computing (for dog slow execution but rapid prototyping there's always matlab and mathematica)

sound and slides is out of sync by about 3-4 seconds, kind of annoying...
