Tail Call Optimiztion in BEAM vs Rust loops for HFT systems:

BEAM/Elixir:
+ Guaranteed tail call optimization
+ Million+ concurrent processes trivially
- GC pauses
- Less predictable latency profile

Rust:
+ Explicit loop = zero-cost, predictable
+ No GC, deterministic performance
+ Sub-100μs consistently achievable
- Manual concurrency management

For market data aggregation? BEAM wins.
For order execution? Rust every time.

Damn it my restless brain, now it is making me learn Erlang, advent of code, here I go!

Imagine if the package registries and #OpenSource components that you use were no longer available.

Would you still be able to deliver a single line of code? Would your software even start, or would your business come to a standstill within minutes?

Open Source Blackout

"Open Source Blackout", an article by Sebastian Bergmann

While cleaning a storage room, our staff found this tape containing #UNIX v4 from Bell Labs, circa 1973

Apparently no other complete copies are known to exist: https://gunkies.org/wiki/UNIX_Fourth_Edition

We have arranged to deliver it to the Computer History Museum
