New blog post. Going through setting up and trying Lumen. Still early days for @getlumen but I think it is quite exciting enough to warrant some experimentation already.
Want statically compiled Erlang in your command line?

Luke Imhoff of Lumen fame can be heard on Elixir Mix! The podcast!
Give it a listen. He was great. He covered his dark past in security and calculators as well as the WASM working groups and Lumen itself.

@crertel Paul has contemplated support for true arrays/vectors as we can use MLIR optimizations on those types then. It might be something worth coordinating with #pelemay to support in the general high performance working group.
@getlumen any chance we'll be opening the door for Lumen to offer better APIs/native datatypes down the road? For example, better support for numerical work. BEAM's implementations of lists of numbers is not good for modern SIMD techniques iirc.
We want to say a very special "Thank You" to @KronicDeth! He's in the midst of moving and yet he took the time to chat with us about #Lumen! A great talk! Thanks so much for your time!
