I once gave a talk about Erlang starting with the core idea that = is an assertion of truth and building (most of) the rest of the language from that. Found it a very rewarding approach.

Is there any way for the public to see this talk or learn more about this?
Here’s the Midwest.io talk. Shame the conference didn’t last.
