As someone who has leaned pretty heavily into trying to productively (and hopefully responsibly) leverage LLM code generation, it was nice to spend some time tracking down and squashing a LiveState bug that the coding robots couldn't possibly understand. Release forthcoming :)

This is Cincinnatus the Roman our city was named after. He is returning the symbol of leadership called a fasces (the root of the word fascism) to return to a life of farming, thus becoming AFAIK history’s first anti-fascist

So there seems to be a lot of cursor unhappiness these days, and that inspired me to check out Roo Code based on a recommendation. Its an OS VSCode extension (BYOM api key). Brief experiments with claude 4 doing work on a phoenix app went well, FWIW. Gonna keep digging in: roocode.com
Roo Code – Your AI-Powered Dev Team in VS Code
Roo Code puts an entire AI dev team right in your editor, outpacing closed tools with deep project-wide context, multi-step agentic coding, and unmatched developer-centric flexibility.

Due to the AI revolution, we programmers may write less code ourselves, but we still have to read it if we want to be responsible. Choosing a human friendly and readable programming language is still important. That's why I am betting on Elixir and Phoenix #MyElixirStatus

Not to quibble, but this isn't deportation, this is exile. And it's *illegal*.
This line is going to stick with me for a very long time.

Three U.S. citizens, ages 2, 4 and 7, swiftly deported from Louisiana
The cases have renewed concerns that the Trump administration’s expedited deportations are violating the rights of both citizens and noncitizens.
