This talk is my slightly expanded version of that statement, and should hopefully understand what "Free" is, what purpose it serves and where it came from.
Free is something I've wanted to understand for quite a while, but could never quite figure it out. I’d essentially given up on it until a friend of mine, known to be particularly fond of pithy statements, told me "Free is merely the defunctionalisation of Monad in its most uncomfortable configuration". He didn’t add "what’s the problem?" but it was clearly implied.
The odd thing though is that after playing with this for a bit, it turned out to be exactly what I needed to hear to get me unstuck.

In this talk, I will show how you can use ScalaPy to leverage an excellent NLP library like Spacy, minimizing your discomfort of using Python, and enhancing your comfort with Scala 3 for the remaining parts of your application.
I would like to go over the most relevant tools and changes that can improve your developer experience.
Join me for a fun and possibly opinionated talk about the state of Scala and other JVM languages.
We managed to alleviate almost entirely the slowdown induced by Tapir in a web socket server. The journey towards this goal was quite insightful, and we would like to share it with you.
In this talk, we will demonstrate some elegant applications of functional programming in Scala, with even more elegant visual results - all with live code and real-time output.
