About the report


Charles’s current visit to Moscow was related to his participation in the RubyRussia conference (see the interview with him on Habré ). The efforts that Andrei Kogun put into practice allowed the participants of jug.msk.ru to meet with Charles.

Andrei opens the meeting. A handshake with a speaker that has already become traditional.



In the first half of the meeting, Charles spoke about the current state of dynamic languages ​​in the JVM : comparing static and dynamic languages, the place of JRuby among various programming languages, the characteristics of JRuby properties, test results, the future of dynamic languages.



In the second half there was a practical demonstration of examples illustrating the previously shown presentation.



Very interesting questions from the listeners were asked during the presentation, during the break and after the meeting: about the demand for the product and the number of JRuby developers, comparison of the performance of the Ruby language implementations, rationality and features of the transition to JRuby with Jython (from IvanPonomarev ) and so on. . The questions appealed to both the audience and Charles .



The presentation of the report can be found here (a SpellingDeck account has been created on jugmsk , on which an archive of previous meetings will appear and presentations of future meetings will be posted).

Photos coming soon. The video will be available on YouTube (with the announcement on VK and Google+ ). It is possible to subscribe to the newsletter with the announcements of the following meetings jug.msk.ru.
