Bernardo Amorim

Built a bank using Elixir and created a Word to HTML converter in Ruby that also converted math formulas to MathML

Bernardo started playing around with code at age 11. At age 14 he learned PHP to create a registration website for his game server only to learn SQL Injection the hard way. Since then, the most important missions he went on was being the CTO (aka the solo developer) of an education startup called Responde Aí and building a banking system almost from scratch using mainly Elixir at Stone, a brazillian fintech that did an IPO at NASDAQ in 2018.

Playing with Lambda Calculus

We all learn a lot about Turing Machines and why it is an important model and its correlation to the microprocessors we have today. However, not everyone learns about another important model: Lambda Calculus. We'll learn a little bit about simple untyped lambda calculus, implement some data structures using only functions (no other Elixir data type) and hopefully have some fun.

THIS TALK IN THREE WORDS

Lambda

Calculus

Reduction

OBJECTIVES

Beginner developers will have an idea of what lambda calculus is and how it works.
Advanced developers will understand the optimal reduction algorithm.
Everyone will develop some interest for interaction combinators and optimal lambda reduction (hype them a little bit, to be honest).

TARGET AUDIENCE

People who have an interest for theory of computation and functional programming in general.

CQRS and Event Sourcing

A look into what EventSourcing and Command Query Responsibility Segregation are and how they fit together, followed by a tutorial on how to implement an application using these concepts with Commanded (a framework for elixir).

OBJECTIVE

Explain ES and CQRS and demystify them (with code), whilst growing the Commanded community by showing how amazing it is.

AUDIENCE

Developers that had overcome the basics of Elixir, understands a little bit about BEAM processes and that are looking for some architecture alternatives that can fit some problems.
