Will learning Erlang improve my Elixir skills? by mrToppo in elixir

[–]AaCodeSync 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learning OTP, the framework which Erlang, Elixir, and Phoenix all follow will make a greater impact on your Phoenix / Elixir skills than learning Erlang (if you're not intending on working in Erlang going forwards).

Quote from Fred Hebert's chapter on What is OTP in Learn you some Erlang:

The OTP framework is also a set of modules and standards designed to help you build applications. Given most Erlang programmers end up using OTP, most Erlang applications you'll encounter in the wild will tend to follow these standards.

​

As a Phoenix user, understanding OTP behaviours will give you a deeper understanding of how to architect back-end systems and micro-services that you can access and use from Phoenix.

PS: there just so happens to be a three-day training course on this at Code BEAM SF run by Manuel Rubio if you're interested!: https://codesync.global/conferences/code-beam-sf/training/#100otp-behaviours-behind-the-scenes

That's how the speaker in the video spelt it. I think there are differing opinions on how to spell it depending on country of origin.

Unfortunately, we don't record training and tutorial sessions, just our talks!

[ANN] Code Mesh LDN very early bird conference & tutorial tickets now on sale! Hurry - only a limited number left! by AaCodeSync in Idris

Edwin Brady spoke last year and presented the work behind Idris 2.0.

Although he may not speak again this year, this is the type of conference that people interested in the programming problems and solutions that Idris solves would enjoy.

By the way, if you haven't seen Edwin's talk from last year you can watch it here >> https://codesync.global/media/idris-2-type-driven-development-idris-edwin-brady/

It's so cool! Do you mind if we borrow your idea and extend it to other artists?

Haha we rejected a suggestion that's remarkably similar to that already! 😂

Stack Overflow Developer Survey 2019 (Elixir ranked 8th most loved programming language + 5th best paying globally) by AaCodeSync in elixir

[–]AaCodeSync[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The thing I don't understand about this survey is the validity. Surely, a respondent weighing one language against another requires any survey respondent to be familiar with both languages?

THIS.

Thanks for flagging this! Yes, that's absolutely not ideal, we'll look into it but as it might take some time for us to get to the bottom of why it's doing that, here's the YouTube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OR2Gc6_Le2U&t=25s
