  The original “Erlang: The Movie” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrIjfIjssLE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrIjfIjssLE (with a good demonstration of what a reliability means)

  If anyone hasn't seen the original, it's worth a watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrIjfIjssLE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrIjfIjssLE

    Dang, they just casually leave a phone call going (through their demo telephony system), then do some apparently unrelated demo where they fix a bug that is causing another part of the system to crash, and then as a big reveal, the phone call they left up is still going untouched.

      The best thing that we weren't faking this. We did actually run though the whole sequence as was shown in the movie with having a call going while another part of the crashed and was fixed.

  I work with Joe, he's a one of a kind. Great guy to have lunch with - he still solves problems daily, and often it's on completely random stuff.

  Made by the same person who brought to you such classics as "MongoDB is Web Scale" and "Node.js Is Bad Ass Rockstar Tech". Also significant enough to be mentioned by Joe Armstrong himself: https://joearms.github.io/ https://joearms.github.io/

    There are a lot of really good ones in that same style, but I agree that Gar1t has to be some of the best. I'm particularly fond of this one: "I would like a job as a software develeloper" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_VJ8aaCgYN0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_VJ8aaCgYN0 and "C++ Programmer" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1TsOHyJPpw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1TsOHyJPpw
