Hi Elixir friends,
After 3 years on Hologram full-time (transpiles Elixir to the browser), I'm at a crossroads.
60+ hr weeks balancing contracts & dev isn't sustainable.

Christmas is coming, and the Black Friday sales signal we’re in peak gift-buying season.
When you’re picking out gifts for friends and family this year, there’s a whole slew of tech products that are better to avoid. I put together a guide to help you through it.

For the first time ever, I had to make a payment in crypto.
I can now confidently say that crypto payments combine the speed of a dial up modem and the ease of updating the drivers on a 1998 HP Laserjet printer.

Primary all of these motherfuckers. We need a real opposition party. People are out here doing the work, looking out for one another, putting themselves in harm’s way, protecting their neighbors, and these assholes are undoing it all. Corrupt Vichy motherfuckers.
John Fetterman, Angus King, Maggie Hassan, Dick Durbin, Jon Ossoff, Jeanne Shaheen, Kirsten Gillibrand, Catherine Cortez Masto, Mark Warner, Cory Booker, and of course Chuck Schumer. Maybe others not top of mind. Not all responsible will publicly vote for the cave - that's not how this works.

Fuck this clown. Time to retire.
Q: It's election day in NYC. Did you vote for Mamdani or Cuomo?
Schumer: "Look, I voted, and I look forward to working with the next mayor to help NYC."

Food insecurity is ALWAYS a political choice. Famine is ALWAYS manmade. People go hungry because of other people’s decisions. We have more than enough food for everyone, and enormous amounts of it are wasted—literally thrown in the garbage—on purpose.
