Re:My year with Elixir on Friday December 23, 2016 @09:32PM (#13248283)

My team was able to get up and running with elixir pretty quickly. I have an extensive ruby background and that helped me, but two other developers had python backgrounds. One was productive after a week the other after three. I think it really depends on how excited you are when you first get your hands on elixir.

Works fine and chrome, and yes it is very fast. Loads blank white screens in firefox 15 on Ubuntu.

I just wanted to get the thoughts and opinions of HN. I have been learning to program for the last two years. Does it really take ten years to master a new skill? When did you start calling yourself a programmer?

Cool, well you got some nice looking graphs taking the path you did. I am working on an app that has graphing, and I am running into some of the problems you mentioned. I am using the highcharts library.

What are you using to generate your graphs?
