- Araq's update on Nimony and Nim 3 (and NIF, which is so cool)
- Constantin's love letter to Nim (long overdue and I expect to connect strongly with this one)
- Treeform talking about Nim and AI (always very clean and inspiring presentations)
- Capocasa's testimony about building a (economic) coding agent in Nim
- Gianmarco talking about Nim for embedded
- Peter telling the story on how he introduces Nim to his company's new hires
I am pretty sure the general quality will be good and there will be hidden pearls (last year pearl for me was the one about putting Nim on e-ink screens all over the house)
(you won't find name of authors in the conf page but you will find them in the youtube playlists)
For those new to the topic and less patient than "full conference" levels of attention, it doesn't cover things like UFCS/command-call, user-defined operators, or many other details, but for its incredibly short run-time, this video might give you a tiny taste of the flavor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHyOHQ_GkNo
Any ideas why Nim seems missing from job and contract boards? Although it's niche, it doesn't seem that obscure compared with countless other niche things I see advertised.
I really enjoyed programming in Nim professionally, and got to know it well. But I've literally never seen a job ad which mentions Nim since then, except at the company I already left (Status), so that's not really an option.
After realising there's no work in it, I struggled to justify using Nim in new projects including personal projects, even though I like the language.
If anyone's reading this and looking to hire someone who knows (or rather, knew) Nim well enough to do quite advanced work in it and doesn't need training, please do drop me a line :-)
