Fred Heber @mononcqc in his book "Erlang in Anger" "Erlang is a programming environment where the approach taken is equivalent to the human body’s immune system, whereas most other languages only care about hygiene to make sure no germ enters the body." I love it.

I implemented my first gen_statem for an internal generic backoff supervisor process. This was previously a GenServer that was really hard to follow and had a few latent bugs. #myelixirstatus Docs: https://t.co/hEJA1k58z6 https://t.co/xvLMy39sKq

@adolfont @ElixirConfEU So to continue about the Agent behaviour. So while it is written in Elixir it is built on top of the OTP supervisor behaviour which is written in Erlang. This is common and it is the smart thing to do. Why rewrite something that works?😀
