Episode 5: Bruce Tate and Turtles All the Way Down

For this week's episode, we talk to Bruce Tate, member of the
Elixir community since the language turned 1.0. As one of the main
people behind Elixir's publishing scene, Bruce was the editor of
the ElixirSource line of books for the Pragmatic Bookshelf through
most of its history. He is a coauthor for Programming Phoenix,
Designing Elixir Systems with OTP, and Adopting Elixir, and the
chief author and content developer for Groxio, LLC. The episode
starts as Bruce tells his story spanning the early days of Java,
Ruby, and eventually Elixir. Along the way, he talks about writing
books, and how Seven Languages in Seven Weeks led to an
introduction to Joe Armstrong, and marked the beginning of his
great love for programming languages. Along the way, Bruce and Lars
discuss the PETAL stack, and his experiences teaching Groxio
liveview classes. Bruce and Sophie also discuss writing at the
Pragmatic Bookshelf together, and teaching together using the CRC
pattern. https://changelog.com/posts/petal-the-end-to-end-web-stack
