141: Network Programming with Elixir and Andrea Leopardi

We talk with Andrea Leopardi, Elixir core team member, author, and recent Protohacker celebrity! We wanted to learn more about his dbg work that outputs boolean expression info and about his experience using Elixir to solve the Protohacker networking challenges. He shares how that work parlayed into creating an Elixir networking book for PragProg. He teases what he might be working next and more!
