About Conferences

<p>Lars went to ElixirConf EU. Going to a conference can be a credibly incredible experience. Elixir has more clarity than Erlang.</p><p>Lars also gave a talk, a fact he was comfortably uncomfortable with. Giving a talk also comes with benefits such as being able to talk to fish in a barrel.

Dive in, make stuff.</p><p><strong>Links</strong></p><ul> <li><a href="https://www.elixirconf.eu/">ElixirConf EU</a></li> <li><a href="https://underjord.io/elixirconf-eu-2023-lisbon.html">Lars' conference report blog post</a></li> <li><a href="https://codesync.global/conferences/code-beam-sto/">Code BEAM</a></li> <li><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sverok">Sverok</a></li> <li> <a href="http://hintjens.com/blog:107">Pieter Hintjens about giving talks</a> by talking to the audience</li> <li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yeUyxjLhAxU">Windows 98 (not 95) demo fail</a></li> <li><a href="https://github.com/lawik/lively">Lars' presentation code</a></li> <li> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKuRkGkf5HU">Voice Driven Development: Who needs a keyboard anyway?</a> - presentation by Emily Shea</li> <li><a href="https://huggingface.co/">Hugging Face</a></li> </ul><p><strong>Quotes</strong></p><ul> <li>Born during ElixirConf</li> <li>Less clarity to it</li> <li>Genservers and stuff</li> <li>Mainstream Elixir</li> <li>Comfortable with that discomfort</li> <li>Talking to fish in a barrel</li> <li>A buddy from the internet</li> <li>The first one I bothered to count</li> <li>Your loose coupling to anything</li> <li>What do you hypothetically know?</li> </ul>
