RE: HTTP/Web Sockets/TCP/UDP/etc. - check out NineNines libraries: Ranch (TCP Socket Acceptor), Cowboy (HTTP Server), Gun (HTTP client), and CowLib (General HTTP/SPDY library) are pretty good from what I hear. Source: over 2 years ago
Build an Elixir Redis Server that's 100x faster than HTTP
Ranch is a pretty well optimized and battle hardened tcp acceptor. It powers the Cowboy/Phoenix server which scales to extreme level of concurrency and low latency. Cowboy uses ranch to pool and accept connections and I believe it uses {active,once}. https://github.com/ninenines/cowboy https://github.com/ninenines/ranch. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

Eli5: How do you earthquake-proof a building? Especially tall ones.
There's no real way to earthquake proof something unless you have a hovering or floating building. However, I've read that some engineers are already considering this type of new construction though much of it is still in the theories phase outside of real hoverboards like the Hendo.
