Tells you what you need to know about the AI culture.

> How do you find readers

I don't, that's what search engines are for. If people know what keywords to lookup, and are willing to go an extra mile (browse all pages of the Google search) they will eventually find your blog. If you have done a good job, it may land on the first page of search results.

> Where do you share your content?

Random short off-topic ramblings on X. Discussion oriented stuff on Reddit. Personal long-form opinion/perspectives on personal blog & knowledge base.

> why do you keep writing

For myself, I do not owe anyone anything, I don't plan to "build a brand" (or rather I have failed to do that), writing is a form of expression, that's it.

Whenever my gut says, this "thought" needs to get out of your head because you have been wasting a lot of time thinking about it, that's usually my cue to draft a post.

Soul of erlang got me hooked to Elixir recently, trying to get my hands dirty as well.

Other than distributed/concurrent system use-cases, could you share what kind of products are best when built with elixir/erlang compared to easier to write languages like Go, for example.
