I found this to be an accurate write up, though my experience has been Elixir, which inherits all of the traits of Erlang (to my knowledge), most notably the BEAM / OTP.

He has another post with similar line style drawings[1], no credits there either, so I assume the author did them?

- ashton314 5y agoThis is almost certainly a reference to Erlang: The Movie [1] which is the most glorious 11 minutes of some programmers explaining how their creation works you will ever see. In the video, the three call each other to demonstrate what happens real-time in an Erlang system. For the impatient, the telephone conversation starts at about minute 3.
