I was just at POPL and got a very nice compliment on a talk I gave on Grace from someone who watched it on-line (!). That talk was the first in my on-going efforts to eliminate all text from my slides. My latest talk has no text whatsoever, except for the titles (not here, though – haven’t given it at MSR!). Anyway, thanks to Microsoft, you can watch the evolution (talks ordered from most recent to oldest).
