In preparation for my @ElixirConf talk I made a video showcasing the cool multi-node stuff in ExVenture! This is killing a node and recovering without players noticing much at all #myelixirstatus https://t.co/mpqnzSlauQ
Nothing adds as consistent joy and confidence to my development like when stock test tooling and patterns from @elixirlang, @elixirphoenix, and Ecto run ~400 integration tests from DB to html/json/output in ~2 seconds. 😇
Emailing people you don't know can be shockingly effective.
There's an unwritten rule that you shouldn't do it, but if you actually provide value you can connect with almost anyone instantly and for free.
The recap and videos are up from last week's meetup! Lots to learn about Kafka and supervision, as well as property-based testing with StreamData: https://t.co/YLKE35y1Vb
Google discovered that giving every employee a credit card and trusting them to follow policy on expenses, even with some bad actors, was cheaper than the enforcement and structures most companies use.
How much do you waste due to low trust? Can you do the math for your company?
Also ... the big ideas in Erlang and elixir are processes messages and links - not gen_servers, file structure, and dependency management- the distinguishing feature of Erlang/elixir is the light-weight concurrency and error handling- all the rest is hype. https://t.co/VdAfmnjmxV
My @empexco talk about rethinking the way we write Elixir is up. It's no more than a set of initial thoughts, but I really think there's something to them.
I was just coming off a case of pneumonia, so sorry about the sniffs.

Stop referring to people as "resources".
* It's disrespectful
* It show a lack of understanding of actual Software Development
* Resources don't accumulate knowledge over time.
* Resources can't form teams.
* Resources can't collaborate.
