If you could pay for access to a bunch of small self-contained lustre examples - think advanced/niche things that cant reasonably be documented by the lib - what sort of thing might you want to see?

So many amazing Gleam talks at @codebeam.bsky.social Europe!
Yoshie's talk on safely and cautious adopting Gleam in existing businesses was absolutely brilliant. Really looking forward to the video being published

What cool looking people!
The best part of Code BEAM? Hallway conversations with people who built the languages.

Gosh! Talk about a release! Some really brilliant stuff here.
They really are on the cutting edge of type system development here, super impressive work. Once I've got Gleam v1.13 out the door I'm going to have lots of fun trying out Elixir v1.19

I've just learnt that there's many AI generated e-books about Gleam on amazon, all incredibly inaccurate.
Is there anything I can do prevent people wasting their money on these?

What might be a better name for "simple one for one" supervisor?
aka: supervisor where at-start you give it a process-staring function, and when running you can call `start_child(some_argument)` to have the supervisor use the function to start and supervise a new child instance.

Erlangers! What restart strategy do you use typically for your simple_one_for_one supervisors?
1. permanent
2. transient
3. temporary

How does a website protect their users against phishing attacks? Seems really challenging.
Having a unique image per-user that is shown on the 2FA page might help? Though getting users to remember that one should be present sounds difficult too.

Another great issue for those who want to dip their toes into the compiler to see how it works:
github.com/gleam-lang/g...
This one is really straightforward, but it gives you an opportunity to look through how the code flows in the compiler
