> The event will feature the creators of C#, Java, Perl, Python, TypeScript, and Smalltalk in a conversation about programming language design

Weird...I could not find Larry Wall anywhere.

I wish one of these panels invited David Moon, if he's also interested of course. He was one of the main creators of multiple generations of Lisp, and of Apple's Dylan. Not the most popular languages today, but they are very well-designed in my opinion, and David is held in a very high regard by those who worked with him. His long-time colleague Guy Steele has been much more public over the years.

Van Rossum, Gosling, Goldberg and Hejlsberg walks into a bar and the bartender asks, "What'll it be, Java?"

I wonder if it’s going to be live or streamed since it’s at a theater.

Wow!
