On the other hand,

I'm still learning how to make a solid presentation for a general audience, and in turn I'm also still learning how much effort really goes into giving a good talk. I'm grateful people in this community are as of yet forgiving, but I also feel I can still do better. Thanks.

Hey all, my latest conference talk is out.

I have mixed feelings about sharing it. On the one hand:

a) I worked hard on it.
b) I think the explanation about proof assistant theory is relevant to professional practitioners.
c) I wore an Inuit specific sweater.

One of the reasons I'm grateful today:

@cppnorth.bsky.social allowing me to speak at their conference, and in particular that they've given me the space to learn *speaking skills* from my own cultural perspective. This is one thing non-Indigenous folk seldom recognize or accommodate.

Carbon-C++ interop demo debut... on a C64 emulator! Couldn't have asked for a more iconic way to watch the future unfold. The vibe was on point, the message was warm & fuzzy, an emotional rollercoaster. Props to @scott.hanselman.com‬ for making a code demo a moment. 💻💖 #CarbonLang #CppNorth

I did not expect the first (public) demo of Carbon-C++ interop I saw to be on a Commodore 64 emulator at a cppnorth keynote about empathy. Great work @scott.hanselman.com
