Hi, I’m Haile (pronunciation: haɪlə).

I currently work at juice, I was previously at buycoins, now hellicarrier. Before that, I went off to get a degree in chemical engineering, and I learned I like writing code a lot more than solving differential equations.

I primarily write elixir these days and I used to write a fair bit of ruby, javascript and some go. I’ve recently been experimenting with rust.

I’m currently exploring:

• building with rust and elixir
• prometheus, kubernetes and docker
• observability and instrumentation (open telemetry & grafana)

My interests outside computer science are primarily philosophy and economics. My current bookshelf is:

• Erlang in Anger [September]
• The little Ecto Cookbook [September]
• Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman [August][Backlog]

I am always looking for great recommendations! via github or twitter

Stuff I’ve done/read recently:

• the rust book [August]
• cryptography basics [July - August]
• existentialism is a humanism [July]
• elixir in action [July]
• how to solve it - George Pólya [June]
• algorithms and data structure basics [March - June]
