It is very strange that a post trying to explain the concept of "let it crash" in Elixir (which runs on the BEAM VM) does not mention the doctoral thesis of Joe Armstrong: "Making reliable distributed systems in the presence of software errors".

It must be compulsory lecture for anybody interested in reliable systems, even if they do not use the BEAM VM.
