ABSTRACT
This talk will introduce Elixir and the Erlang VM through Livebook: a modern open-source computational notebook platform. We will show how the Erlang VM runs millions of concurrent processes, how to introspect them, and from there sketch web applications, machine learning apps, and much more. [...]

The Node refactor bit at the end is pretty incredible.

[@simquinoa2030]

One of the coolest talks I’ve ever seen. Makes me want to put all my efforts into my projects. Such a brilliant tool and demonstration

[@deanrumsby]

Great talk, thank you José Valim!

[@ericg3065]

Wow now I understand how useful LiveBook is. I've been trying to wrap my head around how processes work for a long time.

[@havokgames8297]

Such a cool language and platform.

[@lancemarchetti8673]

Brilliant

[@VaibhavPatil-rx7pc]

beautiful

[@adamsilber-gniady6326]

that was inspiring

[@goldnutter412]

Holy shit😁

[@tommaisey9069]

It was a sales pitch, but it was a really really good one - just showing off an excellent product. Wish these guys all the best.

Did the chart variable change at lines 23 and 24 on 23:23?

Nope, it is the same. If I don't mistake, every VegaLite chart is a process under the hood, you can think of it as a reference. The first block (line 1 to 8) creates the chart and plot it. Then, the code wrapped in `Kino.listen` takes care of updating the plot by pushing the new data to the chart process.

[@hernani_neto]

@, got it! Thanks

[@stevenstone307]

A fantastic talk, and it's not even his first language!?

[@david-hv2wm]

He was doing Ruby before Elixir.

[@user-eg6nq7qt8c]

Well, nodejs is going in the bin.

Sorry for the whitespace
Case3: defmodule Recursion do
def sum_list([]), do: 0
def sum_list([head | tail]), do: head + sum_list(tail)
end
