Thanks for the post! Right before I saw this on HN I was watching a video on how to build a Klon clone, so this write-up couldn't have come at a better time.

As an EM, these points are quite helpful. Regarding your fourth point, how do you filter out or deal with bad apples?

I think that's the joke. If they added more cameras such that they covered the back of the phone, there wouldn't be a bump.

Mike Ash’s posts are gold. I wish there were more in depth technical posts like those on HN or Lobsters.

Aside from the other mentioned reasons, browsers can have ad blockers installed. The reddit mobile app ensures they can monetize. [edit] now that I think of it, probably the same reason Twitch was pushing its desktop app.

Aside from a few things that were already mentioned here, I just started paying for sr.ht from sircmpwn. I’m a bit weary to completely replace my Github account since it’s in alpha but otherwise it’s been a great service.

My guess would be that the office is from the Beats acquisition. A quick job search on their website seems to confirm that as there are a few audio/DSP positions.

Can’t speak from actually purchasing from them, but System76 laptops seems like a great option for getting a Linux computer. The website is in stark contrast to the maze that the Dell website is.

One thing worth highlighting in the post is that Phoenix now uses Ecto 3.0. This latest version of Ecto separates Ecto's data mapping and validation from Ecto's SQL adapters. Practically this means you can use Ecto's changese

Spark is by far my favorite email app. Unfortunately, I’m a bit weary of using it because they get access to all my emails. I know they use it for push notifications, but I still have to blindly trust that they won’t over reach.

I wonder if the 1Password animation only seems egregious to me because I'm not the crowd that it'll add value to. I understand on some level what 1Password does when I enter in my password. If I were to get my parents to use 1Pass

Discord is also a good one. They’ve written some great write ups on using Elixir too.

I think the root of that is the high reliance on teammates and the level of commitment each game takes. Unlike League there is no early surrender, so if you’re in a rough game you have to endure the full duration which can last around an ho

Minor correction, BEAM is just as old if not a couple years older than JVM. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erlang_(programming_language) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_virtual_machine

Agreed, and it's pretty neat hearing about a startup actually disrupting an industry that seems so insurmountable.

Only read the quotes on the article, but the comments from the engineer are much tamer than the headline makes it out to be.

Reminds me of Mao, where the rules of the game are unspoken and you have to learn the rules by playing. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mao_(card_game)

Ah thought it was one of the summary satires from the website. Nevermind :)

Yea I had to dig into the docs, but you should get a good idea of what it does from a quick glance on the README, yea? The docs are really well done though. Kudos to your team!

This is really neat! It took me a while to figure out what it is though, the README should have a better explanation of what it is and some use cases.

This and the actor model for concurrency goes hand in hand. Not only do you have an pleasant way for writing concurrent software, but you have a foundation (BEAM and OTP) that is built for the concurrency model. From what I've seen, pe

IIRC Fog Creek's Copilot was specifically for that purpose. Not sure how actively it's being maintained now thought. https://www.copilot.com/ I had hopes that Screen Hero would fill that role before Slack bought t

There are and will be plenty of reviews with in-depth comparison shots. Ars Technica already has a few and I'm sure there will be more to follow. This however is something quite different which makes it a great review.
