I never used to be a fan of ligatures in my code fonts, but have really come round on this - especially since writing more #ElixirLang

Parents accountability hack: Just agreed with my 6 year old that if I stick to my New Year’s resolution for 3 months he gets the toy he wants. He’s already reminded me 3 times today.

Just tried hexdocs.pm/mimic for mocking in #ElixirLang after recommendations from @pepicrft.bsky.social and @winchester.dev and so far it’s been very easy to get started with. Will need to use it a bit more in anger but so far so good!

Great to see Phoenix reach 1.0 🎉 It’s been production ready and battle tested for a long time already but I expect we’ll see a lot of consolidation and updating of learning material now around the stable version - a great time to jump in and start learning

It's kinda hard to summarize but this talk about building a system with Elixir/Erlang without even using a database or writing to disk and all the incredible things that came out of it is well worth a watch www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQ0C... #myelixirstatus

Recently I’ve really been enjoying the localfirst.fm podcast by @schickling.dev Some really interesting things happening in this space with CRDTs to resolve sync. Highly recommend checking it out.
