5 amazing programming languages to focus on in year 2023
A beginner's guide about 5 amazing programming languages in 2023: one of them, you guessed it - is Scala. As they say, in the beginner's mind, there are many possibilities ;)
Analyzing Big Data in Azure Cloud using Spark and Databricks (online)
During this session, you will talk about Azure Databrick's key features and typical scenarios where Spark can fit will see a lot of demos, and Maria (the speaker) will share my top list of Azure Databrick's best practices.
Things that are things but not other things (yes, that’s the name of the event)
We can read on the meetup - "When learning things, I find it helpful to have concrete examples to help build intuition.
The problem with this approach when explaining categorical abstractions is that many types most developers are used to working with are Monads, and thus, all of the other things. Not having concrete examples of things that are, say, a Functor but not an Applicative, makes it harder to build an intuition of the difference between the two.”?
Zymposium - Reimplementing Magnolia: Exploring Scala 3's Compile-Time Features
Another Zymposium powered by Ziverge - On the 10th of March, we will finish off our compile-time explorations by reimplementing Magnolia.
Spring and Hibernate 6 Migration - with Vlad Mihalcea
"More and more development teams are migrating their persistence layers to Spring 6, Spring Boot 3, or Hibernate 6.
But is it worth upgrading to the latest versions of Spring and Hibernate?
Java Champion, author, and lecturer Vlad Mihalcea will provide valuable tips for a smooth transition, explaining everything you need to know about Spring and Hibernate 6 migration so you can make informed decisions."
JCHATEAU?
An Unconference is something without a defined structure or specific technology - the guests choose the best topic for today and what they want to listen to. And this one is in a beautiful chateau in France with a winery in the basement - an ideal way to talk about tech & do some networking.
Second Func Prog Sweden 2023?
It's a Swedish Meetup named Prog Sweden MeetUp. It will focus on the Clojure library - Tablecloth! Tablecloth is a Clojure library that can perform queries on columnar datasets. You will go through the main features of this library, see code examples of using Tablecloth and compare these code examples with the same queries done in Clojure. You will think about which way is preferred for use in different use cases.
This one will be streamed live online on the Func Prog Sweden YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/FuncProgSweden

Delta lake with Azure Synapse
"Delta Lake is an open-source platform-agnostic storage framework that enables building a LakeHouse architecture with compute engines like Spark and APIs for Scala, Java, Rust, Ruby, and Python. Framewrok uses Parquet files as an underlying storage format. It adds ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, and Durability) to the Parquet files, which turns a flat filesystem into a transactional system to allow time traveling of your data.
In this session, we will dive into Delta Lake architecture and its cons and pros. We will also provide a demo of utilizing Delta Lake in Azure with Synapse and Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2.
We recommend this session to data architects, engineers, and database administrators.”
Metaprogramming in Scala & (Almost no) Dependency Injection
Kraków Scala User Group (KSUG) is inviting you for 2 evening talks: the first one, by Micha? Pa?ka,?is on how to learn more about Metaprogramming in Scala 3. Another one, by Roman Janusz, is about the spectrum of approaches to the problem of dependency injection and application initialization in Scala.
Sounds like a good reason for a trip to Kraków and a good reason to learn Polish - the event is only on-site and is hosted in Polish.?
Scalar?
Attendees of the Scalar Conference can look forward to a unique and exciting experience. This conference has something for everyone, from keynote speeches by Scala leaders to workshops geared toward developing core skills.
Q-Con London
QCon London is more than just a software conference. It's where senior software engineers, tech leads, and software architects come together to learn, share, and push each other to drive innovation in the software industry.
That’s a wrap—did you go to any of the conferences on our march list? Are there conferences you’d add to our April list? Send us a note and let us know!
Book #31 – Category Theory for Programmers – Chap 15 – The Yoneda Lemma (part 2)
Los Gatos Reading Group is a peer-to-peer reading group for learning and teaching each other programming languages, such as Rust, Go, and Scala, and software-related monetary technologies based upon Bitcoin.?
At this meeting, we’ll be covering the second part of Chapter 15 – “The Yoneda Lemma” – starting at p. 235
Category Theory for Programmers – Scala edition – by Bartosz Milewski (2019)
Scala code by typelevel.scala
Code snippets are both in Haskell and Scala 2
Let’s add snippets in Scala 3 ourselves as we go through the book.
