NodeConf London 2016: These go to eleven

The code use in this deck can be found here: https://github.com/watson/talks/tree/master/2016/05%20NodeConf%20London/examples

Writing code that generates code is hard. But by leveraging knowlege of how the V8 JavaScript engine optimizes code, we can use this technique to write extremely fast data parsers, schema validators etc. In this talk we’ll learn how to write code that would make a mad scientist jealous, pushes V8 to eleven and make Christopher Nolan consider a sequel to Inception.
