Erlang Oddities, with Brujo Benavides

Description

For a long time, I’ve been collecting several curious, weird and sometimes funny Erlang bits. I like to share them with you so we can all laugh but also learn from them.

This talk’s goal is mostly to have a fun time while rediscovering the fact that those who create and maintain Erlang/OTP are also just developers… like ourselves.

Bio

Brujo has been a programmer since the age of 10 and he has already more than 17 years in the industry.

He was Inaka’s CTO and Erlang Solutions’ Tech Lead and Trainer, but now he’s back on the trenches working as an Erlang Developer in AdRoll RTB Team, through BairesDev.

He’s an active member of the open-source community and his blog (Erlang Battleground on Medium) is one of the most active blogs in the Erlang/Elixir world.
