Mind linking to the project? I searched Hex.pm but couldn’t find anything. I would like to read it over.
@frigidcode: OvermindDL1’s library is called task_after on Hex.
I guess my Okasaki queues library also allows both application-wide and function-call-local configuration to be passed in to switch between what queue implementation is used under the hood .
I hope to find time shortly to start listening to this podcast!
Thanks @Qqwy! I’m on my phone today so links are quite hard to do in many ways…
This is great! I can’t wait to listen
Redix is a good example of this
I was setting up Redix in a project moments before listening to your conversation and was like - “there’s no config - I just pass in args!”
We just finished recording episode two. I will be editing it and should have it out by Sunday evening. This time we did intros and we are discussing property testing.
I’m eager to get listen to it!
Can you tell in which timezone it will be Sunday evening when you hope to release it?
As you are US based according to your profile, I have to assume it will come out Monday morning for me…
It will most likely be in the evening central US time. I will try to get it earlier for your Monday commute.
Episode 2, property testing, will be out tomorrow. We had some technical difficulties with sound but we are working on fixing that for the next episode.
Out of interest of maybe at some point also doing a (tech-related but probably not Elixir-related) podcast: What kind of set-up do you use for the sound?
Looking forward to the new episode!
We each have a slightly different mic setup. In order to record we have a call using zoom (which is the best I’ve used in terms of QoS) and we each record our own audio tracks using either audacity or quicktime. Afterwards we upload our individual tracks, sync them, and do some light editing and processing with audacity. @adkron might have a different feeling on what “light” means though since he has to edit the show.
Great job guys, enjoyed the first episode! Looking fwd to adding this into my podcast lineup along w/ ElixirTalk. Also enjoyed both of your presentations at ElixirDaze btw.
Light editing I guess is all relative. It takes me about 4-6 hours to edit an episode. If we could go without verbal pauses, it would probably go way faster, but I try not to subject listeners to too many of those. I also take the time to eliminate the accidental talking over each other. That happens, and we are courteous about stepping to the side so the other host can speak, but I still take out the stutter starting that occurs there.
My mic is a Samson C01U USB microphone. It sounded much better when I first got it. I’m looking at some new microphones. I also have a travel mic from Shure that can record from my iPhone.
The most significant thing to worry about is the sound in the room. My room is a little rough, and I’m working on it. I have some sound foam that I need to put up on the walls. You can also get a thick blanket and hang that. All of that is just to stop sound waves from bouncing off of walls and interfering with each other. You can end up with an echo, or a “hollow” sound.
I know how to get good sound, and we are working to improve ours. I don’t want anyone to miss out on the great conversations as we are working through this. Thanks for listening.
All three of us did presentations. Since Anna didn’t make it to episode one, scheduling conflict, you probably haven’t heard her on the show. She is in episode two.
Did you go to ElixirDaze or watch us online? I’m glad you enjoyed the talks and the show. Thank you for listening.
I did attend the ElixirDaze conf and enjoyed all 3 of your presentations. Did my best to record notes when I was there - posted at https://github.com/beaorn/elixirdaze2018, but for your presentation, I was more enthralled with seeing how you were going to generate
We released the 2nd episode today. This week we discussed property testing: http://elixiroutlaws.com/2. If folks have thoughts on other topics we should cover in the future please let us know.
Enjoyed episode 2, particularly the example of model checking an implementation against an idealised state machine.
Anna didn’t get much airtime, which is a shame. It can work well when the non-expert in a subject directs the conversation by asking the questions that many of the listeners are currently thinking. Scott Hanseman does this quite well on Hanselminutes.
Looking forward to episode 3, keep them coming
Episode 2 was great, the topic was very interesting. Property testing is one of the topics I want to dive into next. Everyone seems to mesh well, would like Anna to jump in more though. She sounds very far away and in a tunnel, bit awkward to listen to.
I would like to hear more about data streaming in Elixir, I’ve worked with it in Scala, but not Elixir yet.
Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much. We promise to get in Anna to speak more. We are working on sound and recording locations.
Episode three is recorded. Now to the editing floor.
