Tech Talks are in-depth technical discussions. When it comes to type systems "I am, so far, only in the dependent types camp" - Daniel P. Friedman You can write more correct software and even rigorous mathematical proofs.  Prepare for some mind stretching. Previous guests like Edwin Brady and Stephanie Weirich have dis

In this episode I talk with David Christiansen. We talk his introduction to functional programming, research in dependent types, Idris, Nuprl and LFC traits, work to add dependent types to macro-expansion in Racket, and much, much more.

In our fourth episode, we speak with Stephanie Weirich from the University of Pennsylvania on the Zombie language and Dependent Haskell. Stephanie is a long-time contributor to Haskell, having been involved in the design and implementation of features such as generalized algebraic datatypes, higher-rank polymorphism, t

Episode 3: Dan Licata on Homotopy Type Theory

In our second episode, we speak with Edwin Brady from the University of St. Andrews. Since 2008, Edwin has been working on Idris, a functional programming language with dependent types. This episode is very much about programming: we discuss the language Idris, its history, its implementation strategies, and plans for

We speak with Peter Dybjer about the relationship between QuickCheck-style testing and proofs and verification in type theory.
