This is another keynote from CodeMesh in memory of Joe joining together the tiddly wiki and the SonicPi, by Sam, Erlang co-inventor Robert Virding and tiddly wiki inventor Jeremy Rushton: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUji_DlXjm8
This is the third introduction, previous ones being Joe Armstrong and Tony Hoare, ahead of the panel discussion where the three discuss their approaches to concurrency. The Panel discussion will be released next week.
Hi everyone, a note to say this is the first of four videos we plan on releasing. The next one (this week) will be Joe Armstrong, followed by Carl Hewitt next week. The videos will follow with a one hour panel discussion which I moderate where they talk about the past, present and future of concurrency models. Stay tuned!!!
Hi,I asked how he wanted to be introduced before starting the panel discussion. He said Tony Hoare, but changed that to Prof. Hoare when he heard I was going to be more formal with Dr. Joe Armstrong and Prof. Carl Hewitt. My understanding is that he prefers Tony Hoare if being informal (e.g. amongst friends or acquaintances) or Prof. Hoare in more formal settings. Indeed, I started off being formal when introducing the panel, and moved on to first names soon after.
Incorrect, it probably got confused with the number of Erlang developers at Ericsson. Not all use it on a daily basis, but estimates on their developers, testers and system integrators is in that range.
Thanks, but it is not only us at ESL. Thank Joe, Mike, Robert and Jane, the OTP team and Ericsson first and foremost, and the community as a whole. It has been an amazing journey, looking forward to the next 20 years :-)
A little disclaimer on these kind words: I am just a little part of a community which has grown and evolved over the last 20 years. We are where we are today not thanks to me, but thanks to everyone who in some shape or form have with passion contributed to keeping Erlang alive and moving forward. The OTP Team, ESL employees, Ericsson at large, Open Source contributors, conference presenters, authors, commercial users, universities and research establishments and companies across all verticals alike. My role, compared to them, was minor.
