Today we are so excited to share a conversation with Maxim Fedorov, who is the Core Infrastructure Lead at communications giant, WhatsApp! In our chat, Maxim offers such interesting insight and wisdom from a long career in the space, focusing on Erlang and why he views it as such a powerful language for the work at WhatsApp. We also get some backstory from Maxim, looking at his first experiences with computers, his educational background, and some of the work he did leading up to his current position. Our guest does a great job of sharing his thoughts on what he sees as a lack of magic within the Erlang language, why he prefers this, and how the company has managed to scale in such a major way over the past years. We also deal with some more general questions, weighing functional languages against object-oriented ones, useful resource recommendations, and a whole lot more! We finish off this episode with a mini-interview with David Hardwick, who is the current Vice President of Engineering at STORD, so make sure to stay tuned until the end for that! Key Points From This Episode: The beginnings of Maxim's interest in computer science and software development. How Maxim transitioned into the network security field. Maxim's experience with timezones and how this is approached for an app like WhatsApp. Thoughts on why WhatsApp is so popular outside of the United States. How Erlang is used at WhatsApp to power messaging. Probable reasons that Erlang was selected as the language for WhatsApp. Outages and downtime; what constitutes a serious issue for WhatsApp user experience. The massive growth that WhatsApp has seen and how their approach to scaling has evolved. Characteristics of Erlang that make it so well suited to WhatsApp's needs; simplicity and reliability. Maxim's perspective on the issues around programmer education and their results. Functional languages versus object-oriented programming; Maxim's thoughts on strengths and weaknesses. Why Maxim views Erlang as not containing or performing anything magical. Maxim's recommendations for resources when getting started in Erlang! Looking back at Maxim's experiences of tertiary education and the thesis he produced. The scaling of the WhatsApp server; the project that Maxim is most proud of! Maxim's love for motorcycles and bicycles and how these grew out of initial conveniences. Today's mini-feature interview with David Hardwick, VP of Engineering at STORD.

In this episode of Beam Radio, Alex Koutmos takes the hot seat as the panel learns about Alex's programming roots, his personal Elixir journey, and what excites him about programming on the Beam. Alex then goes on to discuss the importance of application observability and how the Beam (and specifically the projects in the Beam-Telemetry GitHub organization) allow you to easily achieve application observability. He then goes on to dive into his PromEx project which aims to bring effortless Prometheus and Grafana monitoring to Elixir applications. Alex is currently a Senior Engineer at Boulevard, the author of the Elixir Twitter Tip Series, a frequent blogger at akoutmos.com and the author of the PromEx and Doctor libraries (as well as a few others).

Jason loved tinkering with Erlang, they both read a little bit of Learn You Some Erlang, and Adam had a hard time with concurrency.

Joe Armstrong, one of the creators of Erlang, once said: "Erlang is 'write once, run forever'".Grab yourself a cup of coffee or tea and listen to this amazing conversation with Brian St. Amand, an expert Erlang software engineer. Erlang is a powerful yet not so popular tool for building fault-tolerant distributed systems. We talked about how to start learning Erlang, how to build good and maintainable software, and some interesting philosophical discussion about the human side of software development or, as Brian said, "the liberal art of programming".This episode is also a tribute to Joe Armstrong, one of the creators of Erlang, who passed away a few months ago. Thank you, Joe.Links from this episode:Visit our Podcast page and subscribe to our newsletter!Learn You Some Erlang for great goodStructure and Interpretation of Computer ProgramsCowboy Open source projectBrian's Linkedin

Listen to this episode to hear how wallowing around in many small balls of mud can help avoid the classic big ball of mud--and ultimately enable you too to practice "the art of destroying software".Turns out the key to writing great software starts with planning upfront to destroy it.  In this episode, Greg shares many insights, with the main insight being that we have all been overlooking one key  "-ility". That is, is delete-ability of code.  And while some of you might argue the ideas are not new, Greg's way of presenting them definitely is.Listen now: (download)References:Greg's blog: http://goodenoughsoftware.net/Programming Erlang: Software for a Concurrent World by Joe ArmstrongLearn You Some Erlang for Great Good!: A Beginner's Guide by Fred HebertThe Glass Cage: Automation and Us by Nicholas CarrParallel Distributed Processing, Volume 1 By David E.
