1:20:57ENMatt Godbolt: Inside Skylake’s Out-of-Order PipelineMatt GodboltA guided tour of instruction decoding, register renaming, execution and memory ordering, grounded in reverse engineering and careful measurements.
52:05ENCorwin de Zahr: Exploring OCaml Runtime Safety Through a CTF ChallengeCorwin de Zahr · Jane StreetA deliberately restricted OCaml sandbox becomes a way to examine type safety, callbacks, memory representation and binary debugging.
47:08ENChris Casinghino on Making OCaml Safe for Performance EngineeringChris Casinghino · Jane StreetJane Street’s OCaml extensions use layouts and modes to offer more control over memory and parallelism while preserving safety and familiar programming patterns.
12:43ENHow OCaml Represents Values in MemoryA practical tour of immediate integers, heap blocks, runtime tags and variant constructors, illustrated with OCaml's Obj module.
27:16ENTudor Brindus on Finding and Reducing System JitterTudor Brindus · Jane StreetA memory ping-pong benchmark reveals how virtualization, interrupts, CPU frequency changes and speculation can disrupt low-latency systems.
9:25ENRichard Eisenberg: Using OCaml’s Coercion OperatorRichard Eisenberg · Jane StreetA practical tour of subtyping, polymorphic variants and private type abbreviations, with no runtime conversion cost.
8:06ENHow OCaml's Proposed Include Functor Syntax Reduces RepetitionA reverse-array example shows how to derive common module functions from a minimal implementation without an extra wrapper module.
14:36ENProgramming with OCaml's Local ModeAn example shows how a local list can contain global values, why a non-escaping annotation alone does not ensure stack allocation, and where the experimental feature remains awkward.
11:28ENOCaml Local Types: Regional Parameters and Loop RegionsA demonstration explains why some local parameters can cross a function boundary and how loop regions reclaim allocations.
9:14ENOCaml Local Function Types: Why Partial Application Can EscapeRichard Eisenberg · Jane StreetRichard Eisenberg uses a list-append example to show how a local argument changes the mode of a partially applied function in Jane Street’s OCaml compiler branch.
15:59ENTail Calls and Local Regions in OCamlA list-counting example reveals why a local closure can escape at a tail call, and how regional mode and [@nontail] affect the result.
3:30ENRichard Eisenberg on Jane Street's OCaml ExperimentsRichard Eisenberg · Jane StreetJane Street's compiler team is exploring unboxed types, locality modes, and data-race-free parallelism to make OCaml's performance and memory management better suited to its needs.
11:07ENHow OCaml Locals Use a Separate StackA list example shows how region-scoped local values can avoid repeated garbage-collected allocations.
23:25ENRichard Eisenberg: How OCaml Locals Reduce Garbage-Collected AllocationRichard Eisenberg · Jane StreetAn annotated list-processing example shows why locality must be preserved both when values are created and when functions consume them.
22:27ENHow OCaml Infers LocalityA look at local and global mode inference, module signatures, mode crossing for integers, and conversions between function types.
15:17ENOCaml Locals, Modes, and SubmodingA worked explanation of how local and global modes control escaping values, and how those modes interact with function types.
12:52ENOCaml Local Variables, Return Values and RegionsA worked example shows how `local_` and `exclave_` let a function accept a local value and return a local structure in its caller's region.
8:52ENIntroducing Local Parameters in OCamlA demonstration of how Jane Street's experimental local mode restricts escaping values and makes function interfaces easier to reason about.
2:21ENVarun on Software Engineering at Jane StreetVarun · Jane StreetA London-based developer describes useful technical foundations, OCaml training and team matching at Jane Street.
5:49ENIan on Software Engineering at Jane StreetIan · Jane StreetA London desk developer explains code review, OCaml training, intern projects and the feedback that comes from sitting near users.
3:48ENVal on Software Engineering and Collaboration at Jane StreetVal · Jane StreetA London developer explains how colleagues teach new hires, review production code, and work across teams.
3:30ENBrittany on Software Engineering and Internships at Jane StreetBrittany · Jane StreetAn equities desk engineer explains how interns learn finance and OCaml, contribute meaningful projects and collaborate with traders.
3:09ENMinjie on Cybersecurity Engineering at Jane StreetMinjie · Jane StreetA Hong Kong software engineer describes learning OCaml, working on an internal permissions system and collaborating across teams on security alerts.
58:03ENMatt Might on an Algorithm for Precision MedicineMatt Might · University of Alabama at BirminghamA computer scientist describes how genetic data, experimental models and logic programming can help clinicians investigate difficult cases.
