This is a little detour into the world of logging in functional programming. In this talk we will discuss journalling, timeliness, memory & resource usage; laugh at tutorials that scream “WRITER” then demonstrate it with a buggy piece of code that should never go to production; and finally build up a small library of code for logging that isn’t horribly crippled.

This talk was presented at ScalaSyd, May 2015.
