We all forget. Hope you do try Nerves and hope it treats you well. The nerves_livebook project is a wild fun way of trying it out.

This sounds like a great fit for the Nerves project. It focuses on Elixir, which runs the same as Erlang. It builds firmware for Pis and other IoT on top of a thin Buildroot Linux layer, starts the Erlang VM and then that's practically

So there is bare metal Erlang on the Grisp boards and that's usually a virtual machine. Haven't dug into that at all but seems cool: https://www.grisp.org/ The Nerves project is perhaps a more pragmatic approach t

Only if you render the embed before the user accepts which is under the control of the developer/site, even though many don't bother to do that correctly I bet.

Don't worry, it is also something related to Laravel. These things happen :)

I feel like the post brushes past the best parts to line the learnings up with container concepts and k8s. The Erlang application/service should not be crashing. A crash happens in a process in a tree of supervisors and each supervisor

I've mostly transitioned off of Apple stuff. So I didn't dwell on them. My thoughts on them have also been on here a good while back. https://underjord.io/the-mac-is-losing-me.html In the end I use them all. The p

I can see that interpretation, did not have it in mind while writing it and I tend to post what I write here with the title I gave it as HN asks. I apologize if it felt misleading. That was unintentional. I don't believe I can edit it.

Aww, thank you.

Unfortunate that you found it disappointing and it wasn't my intent for the title to imply data. It was intended to describe my experience. I can see how you were primed to think otherwise. This is very much a rant. Hope you find your

Probably. I wrote it and I can't decide which would be more appropriate.

I did say I use Windows for gaming, I don't think I said I couldn't switch but you have the right idea. I haven't tried Linux gaming in some time (ages). At a base level I don't mind having Windows for certain things, su

Using something like CockroachDB you should be able to avoid the single-writer situation. It has it's own complexities I'm sure but seems very compelling.

Not for me. To be fair I didn't have types in PHP, Python or JS either. I wrote about my onboarding thoughts on Elixir here: https://underjord.io/onboarding-to-elixir.html

Yeah, freelancing mostly. Lots of developers wanting to work with it, so finding engaged devs has been easy for me when I've wanted reinforcement. Haven't had a gap in clients for a year and a half of straight Elixir work. Have mo

I'm aware the types are there. I can be more explicit if that was actually unclear. Static explicit typing often feels cunbersome to me. I gather you got my meaning but chose to make your point. But just in case.

Finding companies that take on juniors is a constant challenge across the board (across langs and platforms). We don't have that solved in Elixir, I've helped a few find their way into employment and am working with a few on clien

Dialyzer certainly isn't a perfect solution for static checking. But it does provide some of that to a very dynamic language. So I find it a useful tool. Personally I'm not that keen on type-heavy programming. Do you have good exa

Yeah. Rails certainly has a lot of influence over the developer experience aspects of Elixir and Phoenix. Love most of what that brought. Jose has really thread a needle with Elixir I feel. Rails has a strong reputation for productivity, it

I'll extend that to anyone that does want to work with Elixir but finds it hard to find work. Reach out, I can't guarantee a single thing beyond that if I get your message I'll read and respond. But I've put people into
