I second the "9. What You Don’t Need to Worry About with Elixir" ; and indeed I would advice to _ignore_ some things that look like standards (kubenertes, docker, etc...) and embrace BEAM / OLTP / hot reloading, etc...
I've seen a world where we tried to ship an elixir app "as if it was a go microservice" - it does not work, does not help, and you loose a lot.
Also, I wish the author had addressed the static typing. This was my biggest pet peeve when working on a non trivial app for 5 years (Mistakes were made because actors are not familiar, and fixing those mistakes was hard because of a lack of static typing.) I wonder how the situation has changed lately with the introduction of _some_ type checking.
