If you keep hearing about Goatmire but don't know what it was. I recommend the videos. You can start at the start with the Nerves Car. This year's lineup is I dare say more technical, more practical and in many ways more outlandish. video.goatmire.com #elixirlang #goatmire

If a person sitting on the bicycle is completely obscuring the view of the bicycle (think total eclipse), does the square count as a "square with bicycle"? Asking for a friend 😅

if anyone has extra tokens to burn, here's a great idea for a one shot 🙈

they do and they're both awesome, but as I've said both of them *are* erlang, they're not replacements I think it would be interesting to see a new runtime/language with some new ideas and a chance to burn off 40 years of entropy
