It is always great to see such events. The talk was also given at Stanford. Pamela is a Stanford alumnus who traveled to Palestine for few years after graduation. She brings in a rich perspective on life and conflict in Palestine. There was lot of things I didn't know, especially the situation in Hebron (Al Khalil) [ "The Special Case of Hebron" in the video @ 0:33:40] which I invite everyone in the world to see and be aware of what's going on.

M for … Microsoft? it’s M for Modeling Language.The language is supposedly very rich in the meta data one can add. Some say it is briefer even than C# (which is generally very efficient), and results in better quality code given the ability to compare the program’s actual output vs the “intention” coded in the meta data.
But I’m still reading about it. More details later. For now, here’s a link to the first public Microsoft bulletin about this language:
