Deeply Intents

Philosophy of Elixir - Jeremy Ornelas

12 Oct 2025

Description

In this episode of Deeply Intents, I speak with Jeremy Ornelas of Heliax, the company behind Anoma and Namada. We begin the conversation by discussing the history of Erlang and Elixir, as well as what makes Elixir a good fit for Anoma. Next, we break down the dominion of Anoma, broadly outlining the distributed operating system vision. Thereafter, we discuss Anoma's Controller system in detail, which draws design inspiration from GenServers in Erlang. Later, we discuss the nuances of building hackable systems and shipping viable products. We conclude the conversation by discussing object systems, elegant system design, and the future impact of LLMs on developers.Timestamps(00:00) - Anoma loves Elixir(05:32) - History of Erlang and Elixir(11:29) - Phoenix(14:47) - Make cents for your bottom line(20:00) - Elixir is live and has actors(26:18) - Exploring the dominion of Anoma(32:26) - Controllers and local domains(38:27) - Ubiquitous compute(43:21) - Ethereum speaks Anoma(48:37) - All of this should be hackable(52:48) - Product focused organization(56:49) - What's the holdup on Anoma?(1:01:14) - Products that make sense(1:04:28) - Objects and Anoma Level(1:10:12) - Elegant design(1:14:20) - LLMs and quality  DisclaimerNothing in this episode should be interpreted as financial, technical, or legal advice.
