MANAGING EXTERNALITIES IN A FUNCTIONAL WORLD
by Evadne Wu
THIS TALK IN THREE WORDS:
Everything
is
Connected
TALK LEVEL: Intermediate
ABSTRACT
The modern software developer is spoilt with choice. With options available today, it has never been easier to build solutions, run experiments, and recover from mistakes. Cheap leverage however encourages incidental complexity, reduces inherent need for cooperation, and obviates common standards.
Functional programming offers unprecedented leverage, which amplifies these externalities. Knowingly or not, the modern software developer wields tremendous power thusly, but at the same time walks on the knife edge.
In this talk, Evadne will attempt to provide an overview of these externalities, the historical context, near- and long-term implications, and a few projections as to how things will play out. She will also share some ideas as to how we can mitigate these problems together as a community.
