Cincy Day of Functional

Already working with functional programming languages? Interested but don’t know where to start? Just want to know what all the talk is about? Join us for Cincy Day of Functional.

We’ll explore new and emerging languages that make us think differently about the problems we solve as developers. We’re still finalizing the program, but expect a full day of talks that touch on Clojure, Haskell, Elixir, Erlang, Scala and more.

Event takes place December 6, 2014, 9 a.m. - 6 p.m. Speakers include:

• Geoff Lane and James Smith, Gaslight
• Carin Meier and Creighton Kirkendall, Outpace Systems
• Ben Kyrlach, Raco Wireless

Have questions about the event? Contact James Smith.

Code of Conduct


Unicorns, puppies, rainbows and cat gifs? Yes. Harassment? Nope. We hope to attract people from all walks of life to Cincy Day of Functional, and we need your help to create an open and welcoming environment. We expect all attendees to follow the official code of conduct:


• Be nice. (We mean it.) Day of Functional is dedicated to providing a harassment-free conference experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, age or religion. We do not tolerate harassment of conference participants in any form. Conference participants violating these rules may be sanctioned or expelled from the conference without a refund at the discretion of the conference organizers.

• Use good judgment. What falls under harassment? Here’s a refresher: Harassment includes verbal comments that reinforce social structures of domination related to gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, age, religion, sexual images in public spaces, deliberate intimidation, stalking, following, harassing photography or recording, sustained disruption of talks or other events, inappropriate physical contact, and unwelcome sexual attention.

• Don’t be afraid to speak up. If you are being harassed, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact a member of conference staff immediately. We’ll take whatever measures we can to ensure a safe and supportive environment for all attendees.
