    "What Is Anthropomorphism? Anthropomorphism is a literary device that attributes human characteristics to non-human entities, like animals and plants, or inanimate objects, like stars or machines."
    I love how you anthropomorphized processes in erlang/elixir, as you mentioned Joe looked at it also that way. Which is an incredible way of looking at it because the effect from such framing on this particular subject seems profound. "Elixir Works Like My Brain" means the anthropomorphizing *clicks*, it makes even more sense than in literacy and it reflects whole society, how people act on fundamental level. The analogy works because BEAM really is built like that. Real society is more complex but fundamental things coincide. By learning and using elixir you also indirectly learn how to better act in society I feel. You are a complex process that needs to message pass if in need of a bigger computation you can't handle or something like that; this would be called distributed cognition and we do it all the time. Also I think it's not a coincidence, I think Joe and Jose knew what they were doing. Just some thoughts, I might be wrong but it does *click* for me. 🤠

      Once you’ve split the world into parallel components, the only way they can talk to each other is through sending messages. This is almost a biological, a physical model of the world. When a group of people sit and talk to each other, you can view them as having independent models in their heads and they talk to each other through language. Language is messages and what’s in their brain is a state machine. This seemed a very natural way of thinking.
      Transcript from Joe.

    As for "build a GenServer yourself", I highly recommend the second part of the Elixir in Action book.

    Brain create mutablility 😊 nature is mutable . Even if someone wants to have immutability then there should be way around to keep in trend as way forward.
    Nature change "a stone changes after ages" and programming is an art to depict such changes in nature.
    Its a beautiful language .
    Better we need some more upgrade before someone else see.
    Case1: F(x) {
    Dy/dx
    }
    Case2:F(x){
    F(n)
    I++;
    }
    Sorry for the whitespace
    Case3: defmodule Recursion do
    def sum_list([]), do: 0
    def sum_list([head | tail]), do: head + sum_list(tail)
    end

      nature may or may not be mutable. We can only observe it and nothing that we observed can be changed in any way. So I'd say if you perceive nature as a function of time it is immutable.
