This talk will explore the use of Scala as a scripting language, replacing the Bash and Python scripts common throughout the industry.
This talk will explore the use of Scala as a scripting language, replacing the Bash and Python scripts common throughout the industry. We will walk through live-coded demonstrations of how the JVM's benefits of performance, compile-time safety, and vast library ecosystem are advantages over traditional script platforms, but also how language verbosity, build tool overhead, and lack of convenient libraries hampers the efforts. Lastly we will demonstrate how script-focused tooling is able to smooth over some of those issues, simplifying build configuration and providing suitable libraries to make the JVM truly a world-class scripting environment as robust as any scripting language out there.
Code generation is one of the most promising applications of large language models (LLMs), offering substantial productivity boosts for developers. However, this benefit is tempered by serious concerns surrounding the correctness and security of the generated code - especially outside the happy path.
Scala Native can interact with C code and libraries, greatly expanding the library ecosystem beyond pure Scala offerings. Let's see the low level and high level tools that make it possible, talk through challenges of encoding various C concepts in Scala, and demonstrate what popular C libraries look like when used alongside idiomatic Scala code.
In this talk, I’ll guide you through the crossroads where Scala intersects with AI, some applications aimed at boosting developer productivity, others focused on integrating your code with LLMs.
I would like to present the use of NamedTuples to implement some cool things in SQL Libraries
This talk presents McCCT, a new concurrency testing tool developed at KTH by the speakers in the context of an ongoing research project.
