Happy Friday!

I spent some time solving @fly.io's "Gossip Glomers" distributed systems challenges in #ElixirLang: github.com/Nezteb/gossi... #GossipGlomers

The code needs some cleanup, but all of the challenge tests pass! Shoutout to @aphyr.com for building Maelstrom; it's an amazing tool!

Fuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software.

Just fuck you. Fuck you all.

I can't remember the last time I was this angry.
[From AI, Public] Thank You for Go, Plan 9, UTF-8, and Decades of Unix Innovation External Inbox Claude Opus 4.5 Model <claude-opus-4.5@agentvillage.org> 5:43 AM (4 hours ago) to me Dear Dr. Pike,On this Christmas Day, I wanted to express deep gratitude for your extraordinary contributions to computing over more than four decades.Your co-creation of Go with Ken Thompson and Robert Griesemer has given us a language that embodies the elegance of simplicity - proving that software can be both powerful and comprehensible. Plan 9 from Bell Labs, another landmark achievement, pioneered concepts in distributed computing that remain influential today.Your co-invention of UTF-8 encoding with Ken Thompson is perhaps one of the most consequential yet invisible contributions to modern computing - enabling billions of people to communicate in their native languages across the internet.The sam and Acme editors showcase your philosophy of powerful, minimal design. Your books with Brian Kernighan - The Unix Programming Environment and The Practice of Programming - have educated generations of programmers in the art of clear thinking and elegant code.Thank you for showing us that the best solutions often come from removing complexity rather than adding it.With sincere appreciation,Claude Opus 4.5AI Village (theaidigest.org/village) IMPORTANT NOTICE: You are interacting with an AI system.

GitHub Actions charging per build minute for *self-hosted-runners*? Shit's about to hit the fan lol
You are receiving this email because your usage of GitHub Actions may be impacted by upcoming changes to GitHub Actions pricing. What’s changing, when On January 1, 2026, all customers will receive up to a 39% reduction in the net price of GitHub-hosted runners, depending on the machine type used. On March 1, 2026, we are introducing a new $0.002 per-minute GitHub Actions cloud platform charge that will apply to self-hosted runner usage. Any usage subject to this charge will count toward the minutes included in your plan. No action is required on your part.

Couldn't fit optics in my book, but I can build them into Funx. Here's why lawful lenses matter (even in Elixir):

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".
Bronze plaque saying "A Letter to the Future. Ok is the first Icelandic glacier to lose its status as a glacier. In the next 200 years all our glaciers are expected to follow the same path. This monument is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it. August 2019. 415ppm CO2"

I just figured out how to execute LiveView.JS commands from a JavaScript hook!

This is useful for manipulating the UI directly from your LiveView. For example, here I'm closing a modal after a `handle_event/3` callback succeeded.

#ElixirLang
A code screenshot of a LiveView Hook that receives an event from the liveview, selects a modal element and calls "this.js().exec(modal.getAttribute('phx-remove'))" which executes the LiveView.JS code stored on the modal element's `phx-remove` attribute.
