In this episode of Elixir Mix, we are joined by inimitable Luke Imhoff who takes us on a wild journey through his background from low-level, to high-level and straight back into compiler land as we work our way towards talking about Lumen. And what a conversation that is. WebAssembly, working group politics, sneaking binaries into the enterprise and so much more. The big take-away is that the Lumen project is a very cool effort to give us more options for running Erlang, Elixir and friends that are suitable for entirely different use-cases. Also, clearly, that the Lumen team is carrying the torch for all functional languages in the WASM Working Group. If you are curious about Lumen or WebAssembly this one is for you. Sponsors

Connor Rigby of Nerves fame joins our motley crew to talk about the new Blue Heron library that brings Bluetooth Low-Energy/BLE to Nerves. He goes deep, he goes wide. We learn a lot. And beyond that we cover the Spawnfest darling we know as Bakeware that creates single static binaries from Elixir projects and some Flutter. We almost fall into car talk but mostly steer clear. This is a wild one! Sponsors

In this episode of Elixir Mix, the hosts follow up with Phil Toland on his journey from small startup to PepsiCo Ecommerce and cover lots of important topics along the way. Such as Kubernetes, deleting mysterious S3 buckets, lots of assorted Machine Learning and lots of hype about Elixir in general. Steven fires shots at Go. Bruce wants to talk about Julia. Lars still only really cares about Lumen. And Alex wants that sweet, sweet secret ML sauce. Sponsors
