Hey #ElixirLang & #Ruby fam, I got laid off this last Friday and am looking for the next adventure! If anyone has any opportunities, feel free to reach out!

This has been the biggest issue I've run into. I agree with the value and simplicity of Phoenix LiveView, but the server round-trip adds jarring UX if there is any latency in the system.

That's only for the "system-wide" outages. My project (and others, check their community forums) have been plagued by machines going rogue and other networking issues.

I so badly want Fly to be good. It just….isn’t.

Doing any amount of scaling past their free tier immediately highlights all of the cut corners and cracks in their infrastructure.

Welp. Time for the weekly @fly.io outage. This is unacceptable. Going to be moving to @render.com asap.

Yeah I have been eyeballing it. Do they have multi-region deployments for Elixir apps?

Starting a new site with all the Phoenix configuration in place to serve multiple domains in the same app is now done with a single command. Plus some other new features in this release and bug fixes. 🎉

Wow @fly.io just can’t win. Honestly going to have to stop recommending them with all these outages and issues. Anyone have any good alternatives?

Severance is some of the best TV I think I’ve ever seen. The last time I remember being this intrigued by a show was Lost.

Maxjourney: Pushing Discord’s Limits with a Million+ Online Users in a Single Server In this post, we’ll talk about some of the ways we’ve scaled individual Discord servers from tens of thousands of concurrent users to approaching two million concurrent users in the past few years.

Discord is the one that first comes to mind. All of their tech runs on Elixir/Erlang. This is their most recent post on their blog about scaling Elixir: discord.com/blog/maxjour...

Years ago on Twitter I had raised this as a very real possibility that DHH was continuing to devolve and would likely eventually turn into a right-wing reactionary.

At the time it was dismissed as hyperbole, that the community was wrong for disinviting him from RailsConf.

It was the right call.

Out-of-the-box Elixir telemetry with Phoenix Phoenix gives you a great headstart by leveraging the built-in telemetry of the BEAM, your OS and your Elixir code out of the box - learn how it saves you time and gets you up and running fast.

I'm not rooting for a nation state. I'm rooting for open source.

Hot take: the #ElixirLang crew is long gone. I’d take Phoenix 100% of the time nowadays for starting anything new (or even a re-write).

New job opening in my team! Not specifically Elixir, but I’d love to see people in that Elixir/ML overlap. Another project in this team is Elixir (LiveView web app and full system in Elixir) #Elixir

I can’t get enough of this

I spend most of my days in the data layer and when I am in the front end it’s typically in some js framework. Wow modern HTML is such a breath of fresh air.

Popover API - Web APIs | MDN The Popover API provides developers with a standard, consistent, flexible mechanism for displaying popover content on top of other page content. Popover content can be controlled either declaratively ...

Why did nobody tell me about the Popover API????

I feel like Fred Flinstone pushing my stone car with my feet and I just saw a lambo fly with how much effort goes into doing stuff like this.

Same. But now I’m like 40 lbs heavier in…not muscle.

Woo! First PR accepted/merged into Phoenix LiveView!

Just a documentation change but a fun process understanding the thinking behind maintaining such an amazing core part of the #ElixirLang ecosystem.

The remainder of the config is preferential (e.g. I'm a fan of FiraCode)

window-title-font-family = "Fira Code Retina"
font-family = "Fira Code Retina"
font-family-bold = "Fira Code Bold"
font-size = 16

At least it gives nice ligatures when writing #ElixirLang
