On the other hand,
I'm still learning how to make a solid presentation for a general audience, and in turn I'm also still learning how much effort really goes into giving a good talk. I'm grateful people in this community are as of yet forgiving, but I also feel I can still do better. Thanks.

Hey all, my latest conference talk is out.
I have mixed feelings about sharing it. On the one hand:
a) I worked hard on it.
b) I think the explanation about proof assistant theory is relevant to professional practitioners.
c) I wore an Inuit specific sweater.
