It doesn't look like the call is actually open yet but the site is up and I assume it'll open soon

https://codebeamstockholm.com

@brave cairn in particular surely you have to submit something to this one! ^.^

Code BEAM Lite Stockholm

Code BEAM Lite Stockholm is the premiere Erlang and Elixir conference in the Nordics - one day of first-rate BEAM-related talks.

[Call for Speakers] Code BEAM Lite Stockholm, 13th May 2024

brave cairn
#

thanks for the vote of confidence. Though I am falling behind gleam cutting edge with the rate of releases 🙂

devout sierra
#

Call for talks is now open

sinful adder
#

Yesssssss

brave cairn
#

Someone give me a talk title they'd be interested in. I'll see if I can fill in the gaps. (p.s. perhaps loosely related to what I've posted about but not doesn't have to be)

sinful adder
#

i would genuinely love to hear about that

brave cairn
#

Call for speakers end's this week. The more Gleam the merrier (in my opinion)
I'm hopefully going to submit something. Has anyone submitted already?

sinful adder
#

Ive submitted two!

brave cairn
#

Good times. I think you'd already posted that (although if not here then where). I guess I'm asking anyone else?

brave cairn
sinful adder
#

Im trying to convince @whole oracle to show their music player PWA

#

@remote basalt you could consider submitting your fosdem talk for this?

remote basalt
#

was just looking at the site again! think I will. Take it to the next level, even.

sinful adder
#

Yeah!!

#

Especially because you can codegen erlang too

remote basalt
#

yeah. can currently re-gen and migrate state, with 100% generated in-memory core erlang.

#

quite different from genserver code_change.

#

from the type-safety of gleam, at that.

sinful adder
#

Im really excited for your talk, feels like something lustre server components coud jump on

remote basalt
#

and you did some great work in cient-server communication, I think. excited about your talk, too!

sinful adder
#

why not??

whole oracle
sinful adder
#

oh i love the beths

#

and i love this video

#

if anything you should take the video as inspiration 😄

remote basalt
#

proposal submitted

#

36 hours remaining, for those who also want/should submit 😉

whole oracle
#

Ok the very early bird tickets are out and it's ~350 € sooo I'm not coming

#

if it so happens that a lot of Gleamlins are going then I might take it as a trip and come hang out otherwise though

sinful adder
#

noooo 😭

whole oracle
#

are you going?

#

I guess the talks aren't public yet

sinful adder
#

i havent heard anything yet

#

but i think i might go anyway

remote basalt
#

I probably won't go if I do not speak.

#

haven't heard anything, either.

brave cairn
#

I've been accepted for Stockholm. Strike 1 for Gleam, also my first talk since 2018 so I'm keen to make it a good one for my return

sinful adder
#

heh funnily enough i was just now looking to see if i had heard anything from them yet. congratulations!! what is your talk 👀

brave cairn
#

"BEAM's bright future with Gleam (and JavaScript?)"

sinful adder
#

i'm only gonna come if you mention lustre

brave cairn
#

You know I'm only writing it the night before. (or more accurately rewriting) so who knows.
Though I suspect gleam javascript and lustre are an obvious connection

sinful adder
#

thats what we like to hear

devout sierra
#

very early bird tickets are available for people who subscribed to mailing list, but I'm sure @whole oracle can give you the link

sinful adder
#

ah i see ^.^

remote basalt
#

my proposal has been declined

sinful adder
#

one of mine was not acccepted and the other one is still pending, im working on the assumption its a no though

#

@remote basalt do you think you might go anyway, its kinda expensive

remote basalt
#

the msg contained a code for the very early bird price until Eo March

#

but I think No.

sinful adder
#

i'm waiting till i get paid next and then i guess i'll start booking things. i think its important for me to try and attend these 😔

cloud hornet
#

I’m lucky my employer pays for this one. Looking forward to at least one Gleam talk then! Sorry to hear it’s not looking like more

sinful adder
#

the event is only one day, i wouldve been surprised if we got more than one 😄

cloud hornet
#

Only one track?

sinful adder
#

im not sure how many tracks they'll have

whole oracle
#

The last boats back are 21.45 from Kapellskär (north of Stockholm) or 20.00 from Stockholm. When does the event end?

devout sierra
#

usually something like 6pm but I'm just guessing

whole oracle
sinful adder
#

So any folks planning on attending? ^.^

cloud hornet
#

I’m attending (with like 15 people from work it looks like)

devout sierra
#

you work at Kivra?

cloud hornet
#

Yurp. Writing Elixir and Erlang.

devout sierra
#
#

BTW (meta question), for conferences should we have two threads, one for "[Call for Speakers]" and another for the event, or... should the thread name change when the cfp/cfs closes? 🤔

sinful adder
#

Changing the name seems reasonable

#

Code BEAM Lite Stockholm, 13th May 2024

brave cairn
#

Are there many Gleamlings coming to Stockholm?

whole oracle
#

I'm not, the time window was too small and money is too tight

sinful adder
#

understandable 😭

#

sad though

#

i finally made it to my hotel

cloud hornet
#

Oh there’s an afterparty at the venue, interesting. I guess the traditional beers and banter after will be a bit later than usual.

#

Looking forward to a fun day only half at work!

cloud hornet
#

That loopy self fixing LLM is a cool idea. But I don’t know When I would trust something like that for a real thing.

sinful adder
#

i wonder if types could make it more reliable

cloud hornet
#

Yeah probably, any tooling that helps human developer do the right thing will help robot developers as well. But you will need awesome test coverage, and the LLM bit being able to change your tests. Or at least only let it add regression tests. And then maybe it has to request a human to make other test changes.

#

And it has infinite patience and is happy to do anything at any time so I would be afraid it quickly reaches a point where it just gives human developers an endless backlog of things to review.

#

But I’d love to let one loose in a little cluster somewhere to see what it invents!

sinful adder
#

i like the idea but not like, as the key part of a system

cloud hornet
#

Sentry and the like cannot be far away from this. It’s the next step after like Dependabot. But I would expect it to not work in the repo and with PRs

sinful adder
#

i like the idea of having some local llm thing where i can ask it to do a task and it generates the code to do it and self-heals until it actually gets it right. but i'd be so worried about hallucinations i dont know if i'd ever trust it in a product..

cloud hornet
#

The OTP 27 ~ sigil will save megabytes of <<“”/utf8>> in source files.

sinful adder
#

json encoder is so genuinely hype

#

mostly because thoas is quite slow to build compared to gleam and it makes basically every gleam project build slow as a consequence

cloud hornet
#

Gleam mentioned lucy

sinful adder
#

shouldve adopted our docs 😔

cloud hornet
#

Heh, just using ex_docs instead of edoc is kind of a sensitive issue, as evidenced by some questions

cloud hornet
#

Gleam time!

sinful adder
#

Glime!

#

have fun @brave cairn !

#

you're scaring me now

#

nevermind you brought me back

cloud hornet
#

Someone should create an animation that morphs some code from using callback fn to using use.

#

Just for illustrating

sinful adder
#

yo that would be so good

#

yo what is this lustre slander

#

it does work

#

😭 😭 😭

remote basalt
#

no live streaming, unfortunately...

sinful adder
#

recorded though i think

whole oracle
remote basalt
#

will watch when published!

cloud hornet
#

This is a tag cloud built by participants here.
Crappy pic but the TV was easier to photograph than the projector screen.

brave cairn
#

@cloud hornet have we said hi. I'm not sure from your pic

brave cairn
cloud hornet
#

No we haven’t. Let’s after this round table.
I sidled up to listen to the post Gleam discussion but didn’t want to interrupt the enthusiastic newbs, and then I saw my colleagues so sat down for more coffee.

#

It’s not me in the picture. Just some antique photo of a sailor. But I sport a similar beard.

brave cairn
#

Alright, well I'll let you find me.

brave cairn
junior willow
#

Awesome

#

Also folks need to work on their ability to count to 1 it seems

cloud hornet
#

Pauserunelsewhere is a perfectlycromulentword

cloud hornet
#

It’s an unfamiliar experience hearing Gleam mentions getting dropped so casually and often at a conference

remote basalt
#

"cromulent" ?

bitter comet
#

Have a great time everyone in attendance! espeon

sinful adder
#

i had such a good time!

bitter comet
sinful adder
bitter comet
#

I’m still jealous of the gleamlins getting to meet up

sinful adder
#

A gleam sticker!

bitter comet
#

One day

bitter comet
sinful adder
#

Maybe @rigid ridge would be very kind 🥺

scarlet heron
#

its still a mystery how those stickers already travelled all the way to Stockholm, so glad they did though!
