I'm just passed his simulation demo, I have to rewatch it to get the details.
My above message was more about actual production. I find his work already revolutionary enough. Feels like a new bridge between computer aided <x> and biochemistry. I don't know if that part is completely new though.
This talk is even better. "C++ templates are to Commmon Lisp macros what IRS tax return forms are to poetry". I don't know both well enough to tell if it's true, but damn it's a good metaphor.
I know both well enough and I think it's very true :).
Christian Schafmeister's talks are great and I'm very impressed by his work. It was a great experience to meet him personally on this year's ELS. One thing I learned from chatting with him during the conference break is that his work on Clasp is actually pushing LLVM forward - when implementing Common Lisp / C++ cross-linking he found some bugs that were there because apparently no one before has been trying to do the stuff he's doing - so he had to nag some Apple engineers to get to work and fix them ;).

I liked OpenGL lightning talk as well:

no wonder CANDO is impressive, the scope and fields involved are pretty rare...
I'm very eager to learn if C. Schafmeister work will bear 'disruptive fruits'.
ps: a talk about clasp https://drmeister.wordpress.com/2015/06/15/i-gave-a-talk-on-...
