killing advertising also means discovery is going to be a huge problem for developers. it doesn't matter how many people are willing to pay for your app if there's no effective way to make them aware of it

i'd encourage everyone thinking about using it to go read the code (it's fairly approachable) but in short it just connects each node in the cluster to each other node in the cluster via a tcp connection and sends packets between

i couldn't disagree more. erlang is a great language let down by it's primitive and esoteric vm i wish i could still write erlang but i've moved on to languages with much better implementations (go, rust, julia)

i was not claiming the distribution code literally calls eval, just that it is functionally equivalent to a system that calls eval. you agree that it is possible to eval arbitrary code across node boundaries, yes? i used erlang for 4 year

sending a message to a remote node is just a special case of eval. instead of arbitrary code you're evaling `pid ! msg`. and what is spawning a remote process if not remote code eval? when i say there's no security model i mean th

this is pretty abrasive, but it's also 100% correct. before you downvote this you should take the time to investigate the claims it makes and think about whether what you think you know is actually true i learned a ton about distribute

i would take most of these claims about elixir with a grain of salt distribution, for example, is a much lauded feature of elixir/erlang but if you look into the implementation it's really just a persistent tcp connection with a f

http2 has push, so you can make a single request (for the friends of a user) and then just push all the users in that response before the client requests it. this all happens over a single connection and leverages all the http infrastructur
