I’ve written about what I call Tooling for Tooling, basically meta-tools that help people build better developer tools faster and easier. Arguably the most famous and ubiquitous meta-tool is not actually a tool—it’s the Language Server Protocol (LSP).

Listen to this episode from GOTO - Today, Tomorrow and the Future on Spotify. This interview was recorded for the GOTO Book Club.gotopia.tech/bookclubRead the full transcription of the interview hereSean Moriarity - Author of "Genetic Algorithms in Elixir" & "Machine Learning in Elixir"  Bruce Tate - President at Groxio & Author of many BooksRESOURCESSeanseanmoriarity.com@sean_moriaritygithub.com/[email protected]/in/bruce-tateDESCRIPTIONFrom finance to artificial intelligence, genetic algorithms are a powerful tool with a wide array of applications. But you don’t need an exotic new language or framework to get started; you can learn about genetic algorithms in a language you’re already familiar with. Join us for an in-depth look at the algorithms, techniques, and methods that go into writing a genetic algorithm. From introductory problems to real-world applications, you’ll learn the underlying principles of problem solving using genetic algorithms.* Book description: © The Pragmatic BookshelfThe interview is based on the book "Genetic Algorithms in Elixir"RECOMMENDED BOOKSSean Moriarity • Genetic Algorithms in ElixirSean Moriarity • Machine Learning in ElixirBruce Tate • Programmer Passport: ElixirBruce Tate • Programmer Passport: PrologBruce Tate,  Ian Dees, Frederic Daoud & Jack Moffitt • Seven More Languages in Seven WeeksBruce Tate • Seven Languages in Seven WeeksSvilen Gospodinov • Concurrent Data Processing in ElixirIan Goodfellow, Yoshua Bengio & Aaron Courville • Deep LearningFrancois Chollet • Deep Learning with PythonTwitterLinkedInFacebookLooking for a unique learning experience?Attend the next GOTO conference near you!
