I know all that. Long time Erlang dev, former RabbitMQ core dev, so yeah, I've heard already about the Prolog story. Interesting you talk about the Actor Model, since even Robert Virding has said that when they created Erlang they had no idea there was a thing called "Actor Model".
- unboxed_type 10y agoWow! Ok. Well yes, as far as I know both Joe and Rob agree on that it is accident that Erlang have implemented 'actor model' thing. Also its interesting to note that functional nature of Erlang is very different to ML-family languages. Authors used all these functional stuff because of pragmatics in the first place and not because of solid theory underpinnings.
- old_sound 10y agoYup. See this convo https://twitter.com/old_sound/status/788349221946662912 https://twitter.com/old_sound/status/788349221946662912
