Software tools that don't hate you
Erik will share lessons learned, working on virtual machines, core libraries and regular expression engines. Hear about how he ignored complaints from users, where he went wrong, and how some Germans had to fix the mistakes of his youth.
From the early days of the V8 JavaScript engine in Chrome, to Dart VM in Flutter, and Toit VM on tiny embedded devices, Erik is now back working with V8 - this time in the cloud.
Erik will talk about how your tools should not hate you, rant more about tools that stab you in the back, especially Golang, and throw shade on Python and other useful and popular languages.
