Okay, I watched the talk!

I'm glad you started with Optics, as that's the part that interests me most right now. And "Put `@optics` on your data classes and then you get methods you can use to copy and modify" is a much more approachable message to me than some introductions to Arrow I've seen.

&gt; I felt increasingly out of my depth as the talk moved on from there, though.

I found that to be the case with most FP talks. It can be interesting to go back to a talk after 2/3 months to see how much more you understand.
