Ah neat, I used Soundrop when it was around. You guys should do a write up on the architecture now that it's closed down. Any material on in production BEAM apps are gems for me.

Where do you work? If you don't mind me asking. I'm always curious as to what companies use Erlang. My interest in he language came from Elixir, now I can't stop playing around with Erlang/Elixir.

I'm not too familiar with Scala nor Akka, but know that Akka uses the actor model for concurrency. How does it differ from Erlang/Elixir?

Check out Seven Concurrency Models from Prag Prog. It does a good job of going over concurrency. It doesn't explicitly go over Node.js or Go's concurrency model, but it talks about the pitfalls of concurrency with shared memory an

If your interested, Jamie Winsor of Undead Labs did a talk at Erlang Factory on how they use Elixir for their backend: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_i6n-eWiVn4 Also theres a good writeup on how Erlang was used for some o

Phoenix as a framework is on par with many frameworks in other languages as far as features. It shines in certain areas, such as websockets, because of Elixir/Erlang concurrency. The community is solid and Chris Mccord et al are doing

Thanks! I'd like to see this as well.

It's weird, Ive worked with a few people from Epitech. They say the same thing about software engineering in France, but they are some of the best developers I've had the privilege to work with. If it drives them to work over here

War is Boring has some really great writing both on current military journalism and historical. If those interest you at all the blog is a must read.

Segment.io seems like the type of challenge that would be right in Erlang's sweet spot. The talk that Whatsapp gave on scaling Erlang is a good proof point that it's built to handle these systems quite well.

For those interested, Facebook had a good talk about this at Scale 2014: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhXC4SKOGfQ [edit] I just realized the video is linked on the front page of the frameworks website.

There is a Vimium equivalent for Firefox?! I'm sold!

Isn't this just the same as, "share with your friends to get a better place in our waiting list" that others have employed. I remember Robinhood doing this and wondered if it really moved my place or was simply a growth hack

To log app requests? Firefox doesn't have a proxy unless I'm mistaken.

Half of our engineers did not go the academic route. A few went through intensive programs such as hacker school and a few were self taught. There are definitely jobs out there that look at skill and experience over a degree, but on the fli

I don't think Ruby is targeted at beginners or newbies if thats what you're implying. The language seems simple at first, but once you start delving into the features that make it a dynamic language it is quite deep.

This. The Target breach cost me a late fee. I have numerous things on reoccurring subscriptions. When I was sent a new card I remembered most of those subscriptions, but it only took forgetting one. Only a few months later did I realize I h

Thanks for all your work! Been using AFNetworking for years and Alamofire looks great. So... what do those guys at Panic have you working on? ;)

Just watched the demo. Looks similar to Origami. The price is relatively high, will there be a trial version? Also, I'm a bit confused about Relative Interface. You have a product page dedicated to it, but no links to either the source

Heroku doesn't automatically scale it for you, though you have the ability to increase the number of dynos. There are services that will do that for you, but it's probably better that you have to explicitly scale so you don't

Great, looking forward to picking one up! The one thing that was holding me back form buying a sit-stand desk was the cost. Even the Geek Desk, which is much cheaper than others, is pricey. This is quite affordable while having the luxuries
