Hi there 👋

I’m Tyler. I like Elixir, functional programming, distributed systems, and soft-real time systems.

I’m building a new take on website monitoring called SleepEasy. I blog about the behind-the-scenes stuff (tech choices, marketing, customer development, and more) at tylerayoung.com.

In the past, I created CBTea, a tiny, privacy-focused cognitive behavioral therapy app.

As part of my work at Felt, I maintain the geo and geo_postgis Elixir libraries.

Here are some of the open source contributions I’m most proud of:

Other miscellaneous open source PRs I’ve contributed:

You can find me on Twitter or on Mastodon.

Podcasts I’ve been a guest on

Notable blog posts

Conference Talks I’ve given

Architecting GenServers for Testability

An attendee described this talk as “juggling chainsaws for fun.” It’s about a bunch of very nerdy CPU performance hacks available on the BEAM (the Erlang & Elixir virtual machine). Not many of which are recommended for normal use, but many find one or two use cases across a big enough codebase.
