Now in Home Assistant. My office Walking Pad. Which should save me from the atrocious app and let me collect the usage and hopefully motivate me to use it more :D

Ordered an adapter that _might_ let me bring the home security system that came with the house into Home Assistant. Mostly to get the data of the presence/movement sensors. PIR is it?

Anyway. This stuff is .. engaging.

If you or the ones you love need Elixir, Erlang, Phoenix, Nerves or Ash shirts for their various end-of-year gifty celebrations (including but not limited to Christmas). We have restored US shipping as best we could. The shirt department says order before 4th of December.

If you are in and around Gothenburg, we don't get Code in the Dark very often. So show up. Anton runs a wild ship. If you missed Goatmire and want code events to be more fun. Go forth!

i've actually been in the process of programming a webring in @gleam.run so this was great timing to make something I can use! I'll post about it once it's done

I updated the SuperSonic example to include synths, samples and FX and a fun playful interface.

SuperSonic is my port of SuperCollider’s extremely powerful scsynth engine to Web AudioWorklets so it can run in the browser.

Play with it here:

After eight amazing years at SmartRent, I'm moving on. It's hard to say how much I've enjoyed the people and tech from scrappy startup to now. I now have an opportunity to focus on Nerves and some random ideas I've been wanting to explore forever. Also looking to catch up with Elixir friends again!

Starting a site from scratch with Hugo is so bad. But they offer a single binary and I can ride that binary off into the sunset.

Generating a default site and default theme is an index page with a 404. I will grit my teeth and make it work. I have no shits to give and my wife needs a website.

I spotted this on Mastodon and I find it horrible, not least for the speed with which this has happened.

Is there some integrated telemetry UI for Phoenix like Live Dashboard for .. stuff or Tower for errors?

Using the telemetry library and all that?

This post inspired me to write a Typst-based alternative to @derrickreimer.com's OG-Image that you can deploy together with your Phoenix app.

So, introducing: OGI!

Write code to make being human easier. Rip code out if it makes being human harder. Write code to make caring for each other easier. Rip it out if it makes caring for each other harder.

Empathy driven development has literally never failed me. It’s done me better than everything else combined

i set up nextcloud and jellyfin and i'm much happier for it (so far!) i learned about a few sites that sell drm free flacs or mp3s. [Qobuz](www.qobuz.com) and [Bleep](bleep.com) are 100% drm free. i found stuff on boomkat and juno also but they are a mix. if you have other sites, let me know! #drm
