My new video is the first in a series called TypeScript Type Theory. In this video, I present lambda expressions from Alonzo Church's lambda calculus. The lambda calculus is the foundation of modern type theory and functional programming.

My first YouTube video uses TypeScript to explain Russell's Paradox.

I hope this will be the first in a series of videos that use code to explain ideas from formal logic and type theory.

Live Alberta election results tonight from the CBC.

I worked with the CBC News Labs team to rebuild the live results page from the ground up as a React-Redux app.

Results will start coming in at 10pm EST.

Bit of a depressing story, Toronto broke it's 1991 record for homicides. I built the interactive map displaying all the murders so far in 2018 in the GTA.

Just saw the Mr Rogers doc. I didn't watch the show as a kid, but I sure cried a lot in this movie. The consistency of his goodness makes it hard for us to believe that he was real, but that is a testimony to the power of unconditional love.

While researching innovative data visualizations as I prep for my CBC interview, I found this incredible site called the Atlas of Emotions. It was made by Paul Ekman at the request of the Dalai Lama, with the help of data visualization company Stamen. https://t.co/qaVkqyK4Of

Fun little data visualization I built this using #d3js. It highlights the way that the first-past-the-post system has distorted the popular vote in Canada over the last 4 federal elections. https://t.co/a44EeC4Cr2

[Avi Craimer @avicodes]

Having fun learning D3.js with great Lynda course. So greatful to the Toronto Public Library for the free access!

So excited to be presenting with my awesome group @hackeryou demo night tonight.

It's a strange world when the company that was once synonymous with a software lockdown is now buying the biggest open source platform for 7 billion. https://t.co/Tq17aksGW3

Reply All episode on Tide Pods, Ugandan Action Films, and disgraced YouTube stars...among other things. Well worth a listen.

Just finished the BBC 4-part mini series of Howards End. It was splendid and it really did justice to the novel.

I've always felt a kinship with the Schlegel's free spirited values, but of late I've been realizing the need for a little more Wilcox practicality.

The march of progress in programming languages continues. Move over ES6...now there is PowerPoint!?

"We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? ...[the light] is not just in some of us, it is in everyone. As we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same." -Marianne Williamson
