    A humorous 10-minute parody sequel to Erlang: The Movie, in which Erlang's creators discuss the aging language and meet a surprise helper. It plays on the Outlaw Techno Psychobitch joke for OTP.

    HN loves it as a funny, shorter sequel and even uses it to introduce Erlang in university classes.

      I don't care about downvotes, I thought that video was hilarious and enjoy sharing it. He's the same guy behind "MongoDB is web scale" and "Erlang the Movie II", which I'd also highly recommend: [LINK] this video

    2. @lelfMay 2013· in “Erlang's Open Telecom Platform (OTP) Framework [video]”

      And if you haven't seen it, here is some classic. “Erlang: the Movie”: — [LINK] And sequel “Erlang: the Movie II”: — this video Don't think wtf. Just watch.

      And, after you've watched the original, check out "Erlang The Movie II: The Sequel", by Garrett Smith (aka gar1t): this video (You are likely familiar with one of gar1t's earlier videos, the classic "Mongo DB is Web Scale": [LINK] And he's got more on his YouTube channel: [LINK] )

      The sequel is shorter and more fun, “all erlang needs is an image upgrade.. we need something fresh, something edgy” this video
