Diving deep into the BEAM and OTP (via Elixir for me) had a similar effect. Completely changed the way I think about code and I notice so many headaches in other languages that I just never paid attention to before.
- R0b0t1 5y agoPretty much exactly the same here but a little before Elixir came out (might have been easier via Elixir). Erlang itself serves a very niche purpose and occasionally people will try to misuse it. The principles behind its design, however, are readily applicable to a lot of problems related to reliability and scalability.
