Adam Wilson, a past DConf speaker, has graciously accepted to be our 
guest speaker this month. Although he will present in-person, as usual, 
we will be live on Google Hangouts as well. I will post the link here 
right before we start at 7pm Pacific time.

Come in-person at 6:30pm for food and drinks but plea^H^H^H^H RSVP so we 
know how much to order:

Abstract:

The Curse of Knowledge is a cognitive bias where a highly skilled person 
unknowingly assumes that others have the required background to 
understand a given topic. But what happens when a group of intelligent, 
like-minded, software engineers design a library? This talk will compare 
and contrast library designs with an emphasis on how we can use the 
power of D to improve the usability of our libraries. This exploration 
of library design will culminate in a discussion of how well designed 
libraries can be used to rapidly construct the services that businesses 
rely on and capture mind-share for D in the process.
