Elixir Programs that Reason.
On Automating The Future we discuss how Rules & Reason can be used to create systems that come to conclusions on their own, instead of being imperatively programmed to reach a solution. We also show several interactions with an Example project called “VAGABOND” to demonstrate this fully! Hope you enjoy! http://www.automatingthefuture.com/blog/2016/6/5/rules-are-the-key-to-building-automated-systems-that-reason

My Elixir / Phoenix blog
Hello, my name is Stephan. I’m a Ruby developer, primarily Ruby on rails, however I’m transitioning to Elixir and phoenix. Since the web isn’t filled with tutorials, blogs and such, of this amazing language and framwork yet, I’ve started blogging tutorials on challenges I’ve encountered.
So far, I’ve written a tutorial on how to write a server-side todo application , and how to send emails. Both with Elixir and Phoenix.
As soon as I’m finished with more tutorials, I will post them here. You can check them out here
