14.SFI / How to write Fault Tolerant Software / Joe Armstrong

Writing software that is fault tolerant is tricky. Faults in software can cause catastrophic and very expensive errors.
In this talk I’ll describe the methods I have used to build fault tolerant systems. It turns out that these methods can also be use to build scalable and secure systems, so I’ll talk about these and how such systems should be structured.

He's so right about static type systems being of very limited use. I still use them, but it's just another tool, not the source of all truth.
