Watch a 10-minute conference talk from !!Con 2024 where Principal Software Engineer Nicole Tietz-Sokolskaya explores the unconventional concept of programming using only exceptions for control flow. Learn about Hurl, a programming language she created that exclusively uses exceptions, and discover how to implement traditional control flow mechanisms in this unique paradigm. Gain insights into the limitations of the current Hurl implementation while understanding how some languages, particularly Python, already utilize exceptions for control flow. The talk, presented at bangbangcon in Santa Cruz, CA, combines technical exploration with practical examples, drawing from Nicole's expertise in software architecture, performance, scalability, and security at Remesh.
