That moment when.. it took a third party company 1 month to get an RDAP server working, it was in #Java, and by “working” I mean it sometimes responded maybe.. and you rewrite it in #Elixir in an afternoon, it’s faster and works great 😂😅

Has everyone else moved off AWS S3 / Cloudfront? We recently started using #Cloudflare R2 and it’s 🔥 we were spending about $4-4.5k/mo just on S3 and Cloudfront. On Cloudflare R2 that’s been reduced to $550/mo 🤯 and it’s insanely easy to implement in #Elixir

ghostty.org is out. One of the most interesting projects recently and if you are TUI person, then it is really worth checking out. I have been using it for some time now and it is really nice.
Ghostty
Ghostty is a fast, feature-rich, and cross-platform terminal emulator that uses platform-native UI and GPU acceleration.

🚨Soon, `mix igniter.install` will work even in projects that don't have igniter as a dep! As long as you have installed the archive, it will install the requested package and add igniter as a dev dependency 😎 This is just a small taste of what's to come, big things brewing for #ElixirLang 😉

I’m proud of how my #RubyConf talk came out - I put loads of work into trying to touch on every aspect of Ruby concurrency in ~25 minutes, and make it as accessible as possible. I think it's a great guide to the Ruby concurrency landscape.

It's been what, like half a decade waiting for this moment?

Well worth it :)
