Hot code upgrades on the BEAM are awesome, but they're not a piece of cake. If you're also interested in the challenges of making them production safe, I gave a talk about this topic on CodeBEAM Sto earlier this year: https:&#x2F

> arbitrary addition to Coati, "also known as....the Brazilian aardvark" But via citogenesis, the coati really became also known as the Brazilian aardvark. So the original claim is true, and this wasn't really citogenesis

Based on my quite limited experience with Python the big drawback of indentation sensitivity is copy pasting will only work when your editor has great language support. If I copy a block of code from indentation level X and paste it to inde

Good news is that today is Black Friday, so the e-commerce industry is running at peak capacity. In 30 days it will be Christmas, and by then (the very latest!) everybody will scale back, so you have a good chance to gain access to more com

I'm sorry to hear you got frustrated with this task, but to be honest, I don't think it would be representative of how it feels working with Elixir or Erlang. It's like sitting down with zero experience to an IBM mainframe an

It may or may not be fraud as the letter of the law, but this is definitely the shadiest part of the story. Also a pretty lame thing to do. It would have been much more elegant to add some crazy overpriced option to your pizzas where you co

I'd like to play with a game that's like Civilisation, but when you start, you don't know what world you're playing in. You only know what your ruler sees and hears. You may send your Columbus across the Atlantic, and yo

This is not exactly how the Beam VM works. > an ISA design that contains no unbounded local looping primitives Actually, most of the Beam instructions are non-O(1). For example since integers are unbounded in Erlang even simple arithmeti
