Your channel is a gem (pun indented)!

A ton of work went into this, so thank you for making the effort and slogging through the recording woes.

Thanks! Much appreciated. Yes it took a ridiculous amount of time lol ⏳

Although I don't have a background in Ruby, I really enjoyed this presentation! I've spent the past few days learning more about Elixir, and I have really been enjoying it! I've also taken a look at learning some Ruby too, just for some extra fun and as another alternative to Bash scripting. Thanks for putting in all the effort, and don't worry, I won't let anyone know about the Rakefiles :-)

Fantastic video. Concise and expert comparison. Thank you so much!

No Ecto vid! 😮 Great introduction, thanks

That's literally what I was looking for! Thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot for putting this together, it’s been really helpful!

Thank you very much for this high quality work. I really enjoyed watching.

Amazing video

I had limited experience with Ruby years go and I couldn't stand it as I learned more Ruby. I just discovered Elixir recently and nothing about it resembles Ruby save some syntax semantics. I love Elixir! Learned it enough to be productive in a weekend. Even though there are a couple of wacky syntax like default value "\\" , concat string "" and "=" is not really an assignment. But it make sense. I don't have the "WTF is this suppose to do.." LOL ..The whole Elixir platform/ecosystem is sensible. Easily replace several backend stacks with Elixir.

And what CPU bound performance solutions are there inside Erlang ecosystem and Beam itself besides just calling Rust or ZIg or C code that does the heavy lifting? It would also be cool to see videos on you exploring Pony...much easier to learn than Rust but same guarantees and it's also based on the ideal form of actor model, it is made for high performance distributed stuff and it's a shame that no one is really talking about it.

is it possible to use |> only once and then pipe x map x => fn,fn,fn,fn (x) because that's how I would do it in JS ... /ramda

You use ruby for your script? I’m trying to understand what you mean by that. Can you clarify?

Yes, I still use Ruby for the vast majority of scripts that I write. Elixir is getting really good though, maybe even better now with `Mix.install/2`. Most of my production machines already have ruby installed and the Ruby stdlib is pretty good so I rarely need to add dependencies, and Ruby is fairly well-known so others can participate pretty easily.
