Dead links: Dependently typed functional programming in Idris #71

Closed catb0t closed 5 years ago

catb0t commented 5 years ago

Here are the exercises / slides from David Christiansen but the same links are dead links. https://github.com/david-christiansen/IdrisAtGalois2015

I think Galois' entire Vimeo channel was removed or made private, as it seems to no longer exist (or has only 5 videos on it, compared to dozens of talks they've hosted).

It's very unfortunate and I wish I could keep a copy of all the videos on the list, but I haven't got the disk space.

We could replace it with (mirrored) versions of Edwin Brady's 3 lectures on the same topic with a similar title, https://vimeo.com/61576198 (although I do like Christiansen)

They are uploaded on his account and listed on the Idris website, https://www.idris-lang.org/dependently-typed-functional-programming-with-idris-course-videos-and-slides/

So maybe they are less susceptible to disappearing.

Any ideas?

Edwin Brady's lectures are introduced by David Christiansen. That's quite funny.

Good catch! I’m going through Edwin Brady’s lectures at the moment (I have some time on the train today), but I’m not sure I will get through them soon. Idris is not the simplest topic for me to get through quickly, in all honesty.

So, I watched the entire set of talks now and enjoyed them. I do think I liked Christiansen’s more, but oh well! You found a great substitute!

You said in an earlier comment that there were three talks in this series; I count four. Was that a typo or were you not aware of the fourth?

catb0t commented 5 years ago

It was a typo, because I was thinking about Christiansen's talks.

hellerve commented 5 years ago

Perfect! Should I add those talks or do you want to?

catb0t commented 5 years ago

I can add them!
