I just want to model what’s going on in the real world - Joe Armstrong

Bad concurrency model, I think, is something that make a lot of programming artificially difficult.

I don't like modules. It's a sort of love/hate relationship. The problem with modules is the classification problem. When you have written a function you don't know in what modules you put it in.

I am the world's worst C programmer because it's so complicated I can't understand it [...] All I know is that whenever I write C, my pointers are always missed by one from where they're supposed to go.
