Very good talk. Like the point about the cost of maintenance. Where it is not just about shiny new features that developers get excited about. But also about the features that help with long term maintenance. Basically making the lives of those developers easy as well.

This is a wonderful talk.

Does anybody know how available are junior Erlang positions? I'm slowly thinking about getting into FP world professionally and Erlang seems to be the most viable way.

There is a site dedicated to Erlang, which also has jobs section with varying Erlang skills required https://erlangcentral.org/jobs/

Thanks a lot! Any info on Warsaw area? I'm just guessing from username you're Polish.

Good guess :) But I am from Cracow, so I don't know about Erlang positions in Warsaw. I know couple of positions in Cracow, though.

Damn Cracow. Every time! When I used to look for a lowlevel developer job I had a feeling that most of interesting positions were out there. And now, considering Erlang, I'm aware of only one company here, which _may_ consider hiring a junior. To be fair I haven't been searching extensively yet.
