A beautiful church in a village I hold dear. I briefly lived in Coddenham and worshipped at St. Mary’s as a child, spending a lot of time reading the stories on its walls. Thank you for reminding me of this one.

Very happy to do so! Thanks for all of your hard work on Gleam and its ecosystem.

Definitely a thing; something I’ve seen in my family (that & a host of fun EDS co-morbidities).

My favorite photo from our family trip to the aquarium here in Copenhagen, Den Blå Planet, yesterday: a Victoria Crowned Pigeon (Goura victoria) hanging out in the rainforest.

(Many thanks to @sasajuric.bsky.social for the recommendation; we had a great time!)

Next trip: #Goatmire Elixir in Varberg, Sweden. I’m on the way in less than a week, and spending the rest of the trip in & around Copenhagen.

I feel this way with emacs and magit, fwiw. I hate sacrificing my tastes for productivity, but I’m too often using something I wouldn’t use otherwise.

But… at least it’s Elixir these days!

Travel all booked for Goatmire Elixir!

It turned into a bit of a family trip to Copenhagen as well—happy to finally take my family to one of my favorite cities.

Would love to hear about the component packages people are using in #Phoenix #LiveView.

One example is mishka.tools/chelekom, but I’m interested in your other recommendations!
