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 top…

> 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…

And a fish: Deploy time: 2022-11-10 06:00 Deploy point: 5.31° S , 18.138° W Simulation length: 9 days

Here's a fun challenge: try to draw something nice on the map. My first submission is a not too perfect heart: Deploy time: 2022-11-10 03:00 Deploy point: 23.795° S , 133.047° E Si…

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 dow…

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 …
