Summer Interns 2011: Parallel Watch Visualizers for Visual Studio 11

It's always a pleasure to get the chance to chat with Gilad Bracha. So, whenever we can, we do. We've had Gilad on C9 quite a few times over the years and the conversations are always enlightening and educational. Recently, Gilad joined Google and is now working on the Dart programming language with long-time colleague (and former co-worker) Lars Bak.
Of course we had to ask Gilad about Dart (just the technical stuff, though - like Dart's type system, concurrency model(actor-based "isolates"), future etc...).
Of course, Dart has to compile to JavaScript. So how did this requirement impact Dart's design? Certainly it did, right?
We also get an update on the status of Gilad's very own Newspeak language. What's going on with Newspeak now that he works on Dart full time?
Thanks for coming on C9, Gilad! Always a pleasure.
Recently, Channel 9 was invited to attend the great SPLASH conference. What is SPLASH? Systems, Programming, Languages and Applications: Software for Humanity. SPLASH is an annual conference that embraces all aspects of software construction and delivery, and that joins all factions of programming technologies. Since 2010 SPLASH is the umbrella for OOPSLA and Onward! [source=splashcon.org]
A big thanks to the SPLASH event organizers for inviting me and my camera to engage some key computer scientists and engineers in geeky, fun conversation! SPLASH is a great event! I learned a ton and met many amazing computer scientists and students.
Great interview!
I had downloaded the .NET 4 BCL video at lunch, but that that will have to wait now.
@George_Curelet_Balan: Glad you enjoyed it!
@vesuvius, good choice. You can watch the BCL interview later (it's worth it, too, of course!)

Great!
I wonder if there's any chance to have Erik and Gilad in an interview together about Dart and whatever else comes up...
@Jules.dot: Hopefully, Erik will come out of hibernation and start attending these things again... Come on, Erik!

@Jules.dot: like MSIL2JS plans ? JS as ASM ideas ? how many lines of code should the MSIL2JS helloworld be ?
@Charles: Hibernation? Well, he did attend Strange Loop 2011: https://thestrangeloop.com/sessions/category-theory-monads-and-duality-in-big-data
