Police Academy III posted:How is the library situation with Erlang, like if I want to do something with graphics + sound or a native-looking UI, how easy is that? For the most part, they don't exist, or they're bad. Don't use Erlang for a desktop app. Police Academy III posted:Also, what does a good Erlang development environment look like, is there an IDE or am I fine with just emacs? Joe Armstrong uses emacs, Sublime is good too.

MononcQc posted:No explicit reason. The gist of it is that whatever is in the official OTP repository is the responsibility of the OTP team at Ericsson. I figure they don't want to have to maintain and document rebar, especially given a lot of its functionality is just a wrapper around existing tools. That, OTP doesn't have a reputation for pulling in packages developed externally, and that rebar is basically the Dizzy show with Tuncer as comic relief.

more like dICK posted:Can you explain this for people who don't follow Github or HN drama? I've found rebar quite useful. Dave "Dizzy" Smith was Erlang User of the Year prior to MononcQc, used to be VP of Engineering at Basho, and wrote rebar. Tuncer made some bad PRs with some WTF parts but I haven't heard any gripes about his changes lately vv rebar's basically the best way to make a blank OTP app, and the only good way to make a new riak_core app.

Jerry SanDisky posted:So I've got an existing OTP app that's using TCP sockets right now. I'd like to add in an HTTP front end to it. The two names I keep seeing come up are Yaws and MochiWeb (and of course raw httpd). MochiWeb seems simple enough, but as far as I can tell it uses its own build system. For httpd it looks like I'd be looking at mod_esi? MochiWeb is what webmachine (and therefore riak_kv, riak_cs, etc.) use, and those are pretty standard rebar apps?

MononcQc posted:Sorry for the thread necromancy, but I was wondering if anyone in here planned to be around for the Erlang Factory Lite in September, in New York City? I saw three posts surface just now "Accidentally disconnecting a remote shell while doing a live upgrade" is something I've got even worse stories about. I'll let these patch notes speak: quote:Changed behavior of riak attach

Shinku ABOOKEN posted:Post this in your blog. From Justin Sheehy, CTO at Basho: quote:We use the Erlang/OTP programming language in building our products here at Basho. We made that choice consciously, believing that it would be a tradeoff – significant benefits balanced by a handful of costs. I am often asked if we would make the same choice all over again. To answer that question I need to address the tradeoff we thought we were making.

What're the consequences if the two tables get out of sync due to latency, slow node startup, or other issues?

Posting Principle posted:The main impression I got from the Erlang Factory was that there is a big world of distributed Erlang that's not easily accessible for the hobbyist. I wasn't there, but I quite agree about the difficulty of keeping up with a lot of the cutting edge academic stuff that goes around. There's a feeling that if you can't keep up with academics that maybe you should sit back and let the people that have been doing it for a few years already solve the hard problems, but that's a little too "priesthood" for me. I'd like to find more time to make the subject more approachable, but there's the day job and other side work to keep me busy

MononcQc posted:Plenty of bugs and missing features because this is 17.0-rc1, i.e. pre-alpha of what would have been R17A. The Maps implementation will not even be totally complete for 17.0 final, and the insertion times are still lovely for large maps. Will maps get faster at insertion/retrieval eventually?
