Event Description:

I'll share my motivations and experiences learning to have FUN with F#.
A quick review of some F# history, a bit more on the state of the F# art, and a few forward looking F# observations.
Start a conversation about building our dreams by harnessing F# to many/multi-cores.
Let's see what we can do with 100,000 times more personal compute power than we had last millennium and a new more expressive language.
