Lars went to ElixirConf EU. Going to a conference can be a credibly incredible experience. Elixir has more clarity than Erlang.

Lars also gave a talk, a fact he was comfortably uncomfortable with. Giving a talk also comes with benefits such as being able to talk to fish in a barrel. But why did he choose to make the whole talk a demo? What is the goal of it all?

Gotta build things! Dive in, make stuff.

Quotes

Born during ElixirConf
Less clarity to it
Genservers and stuff
Mainstream Elixir
Comfortable with that discomfort
Talking to fish in a barrel
A buddy from the internet
The first one I bothered to count
Your loose coupling to anything
What do you hypothetically know?
