    Oh this dude makes good motorcycle videos.

    Another unfun fact (dunno if it’s mentioned in the video) is that Teflon is a PFAS that is currently in our environment and ground water in harmful amounts, is definitely giving us cancer, and can’t be easily extracted or broken down :(

    I hope we can go back to waxed coats and boots or something, soon.

    edit:// the video does mention it. Cool video

    Hadn’t heard of reiverr, you like it?

    I’ve been toying with the idea of creating a file-arr for analyzing disk usage, performing common operations, and exposing a web-based upload/download client so I don’t have to mount the volume everywhere.

    That’d be cool. There’s one that does transcoding and another that does unzipping





  • Unquestionably Golang if those are the two options. It’ll give you a much better base to work with if you are still earlier in your career and is much more applicable to a lot of things.

    Elixir is niche, the syntax doesn’t share a lot of patterns with other languages, and no one is hiring for it. Also few people know it.

    I want to caveat my answer with that I personally really like elixir, and would prefer to work with it myself over golang for some types of problems. Actor patterns are really cool.
