"As a programming language enthusiast, I am definitely looking forward to the inaugural PL Festival in 2024! I have been a huge fan of Tom's Context Free YouTube channel from early on and can't wait to see what he does with a conference. If you are a PL enthusiast, I would encourage you to support / look into attending this conference."
