In this workshop, we go into some of the more interesting aspects of Elixir to discover what makes this language and its patterns so powerful.
It is very hands-on and the students get to coding Elixir in the first 15 minutes.

This workshop is very similar to the Intro to Elixir workshop except we spend some time getting to know Phoenix. At the end of the workshop we will have built a Phoenix app that uses websockets to produce a real-time twitter feed in the browser.
If you decided on Phoenix for your team’s web app, this workshop would be a great fit for you.
This workshop goes through the steps of building a very primitive digital currency, through coming up with a currency that has many similarities with Bitcoin.
It touches on cryptography, Proof of Work and mining.
If you want to see an example, it has been extracted from this talk that I gave in Lviv in 2018.
I have been speaking at tech conferences for many years and at meetups for many more.
The topics have changed quite a bit over the years which shows how my interests keep changing.

I try to entertain first, but hope people will come away having learned something. These talks are in serious need of upvotes so if you take a peek, don’t forget to smash like 👍
I like to give talks. Tragedy has hit for the past year and I haven’t been able to come up with anything interesting to speak about. I had almost given up, thrown in the towel. But then I had an idea…
I will build an app that will write a talk for me!
It turns out AI is pretty hard.

Reaktor Breakpoint Helsinki 2018
I’ve been managing a mining farm, consuming thousands of kilowatt hours for most of the last year.
