"it was far more important for me to worry about creating environments where good work could get done than it was to spend my effort directly doing the work."

👀 Deep dive: @sasajuric.bsky.social's "commits as storytelling" approach.

Instead of random snapshots, each commit should advance the narrative of your change. His live Erlang demo shows:
"Create ticker" → "Collect samples" → "Calculate average" → "Expose getter"

Of all the talks I've given, this one is the closest to my heart, so I hope you'll enjoy it!

Saša Jurić @sasajuric.bsky.social · 10d

The format of this talk is heavily inspired by the beautiful venue of Theatro Circo. It was the first time I performed at a theater stage, so for this occasion I dug deep, went far outside my comfort zone, and came up with a fusion of a technical talk and a monodrama 🎭

Saša Jurić @sasajuric.bsky.social · 10d

The talk should be interesting to anyone developing software in a collaborative team environment, regardless of the language used. It's best experienced knowing no details about it, so skip reading the description, just hit the play button, and watch the story unfold.

🥳🎉🎊 such a great feeling to hold it in your hands. Congrats!

Saša Jurić @sasajuric.bsky.social · 13d

Come to CodeBEAM EU and find out :-)

Saša Jurić @sasajuric.bsky.social · 13d

We were a small crowd, but surprisingly international, with two Berlin-based Ukrainians visiting us. Karlo's talk was great, and you can catch it at CodeBEAM EU this November.

Saša Jurić @sasajuric.bsky.social · 13d

We had a fun time tonight at Elixir Meetup Zagreb, with the one and only Karlo Smid presenting the Oban case study, and @danj3.bsky.social talking about EEF.

Bruce Tate always told me this.

"Take care of the speakers and they will take care of the attendees."

Pretty sure he meant: provide skulls

Saša Jurić @sasajuric.bsky.social · 17d

tfw you ask the conference organizer to procure a skull and he immediately responds with "sure, one human skull, consider it done" 😅

My conference report for Goatmire Elixir 2025. From the perspective of the organizer. I hope to see other people share long-form notes on their conference experience. There cannot be too much blogging. Also, lots of nice pictures by Petter Boström.

Conference Report: Goatmire Elixir 2025

The quiet was unsettling. The lack of concrete things to do was stressful. Me and my wife had been fretting and flitting around the house for most of the day making sure everything was staged, that…

Saša Jurić @sasajuric.bsky.social · 19d

Thank you ❤️

Saša Jurić @sasajuric.bsky.social · 20d

Still getting over the fact that that talk won't be released, though in a sense it makes being there and seeing it live even more memorable.

Saša Jurić @sasajuric.bsky.social · 23d

Looks like some folks had fun reviewing my PR :-)
