There is also @fogus' book: http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920028857.do I haven't read it yet.

It's a fantastic book for getting your mind used to the functional way of thinking.

I'd also recommend JavaScript Allonge on the same topic. https://leanpub.com/javascript-allonge

I put together a similar talk last summer: http://thedrearlight.com/functional-js-wut unfortunately, don't have the vid either, but the slides might be complementary to the ones linked by the OP.

--edit It's formatted kinda weird, where both up/down and left/right arrows navigate through the different sections.

finally, a slide deck that uses `history.replaceState` instead of `history.pushState`. no more having to hit "back" 90 times to exit the deck. how the latter ever became a pattern is beyond me.

[EDIT] it probably became a pattern because of browsers that didnt implement the history API, so all hashchange events were pushed onto the history stack.
