We just released the first stable version of iroh, v1.0! Read about it: www.iroh.computer/blog/v1 We're super proud of where we landed with iroh's 1.0. Since version 0.35 it feels like we've entirely replaced the "engine underneath". Are you a fellow key-dialer? Come tell us how you use iroh!

I am, in fact, an Erlang fanboy at heart and would bet money I spend my retirement either finding out if this claim is true, or trying to make it true

Chats aren't encrypted, Bluesky will turn them over if subpoenaed. Use @signal.org or @germnetwork.com instead

babe is everything okay? you've barely touched your five mutually exclusive boolean props that should have been a single enum.

In Engish, turkeys are named after the country Turkiye. In Turkiye, they're called "Hindi" named after India. In Hindi, they're sometimes called "Peru" named after...Peru. In Peru they're called "pavo" named after peacocks. Peacocks don't have a word for turkeys.

Fun fact, in #ElixirLang 1.20, there's a new `mix test` flag: `--dry-run`. It should help you when making large changes to a test suite, like version upgrades! Try it out: `mix test --warnings-as-errors --dry-run` github.com/elixir-lang/...

"in defence of yaml" not today, satan

english isn't for cowards. if you're not saying 'torpify,' that's a skill issue. there's no Académie Française telling you what to do. if you try to type 'pallific' and freak out when you see a little red underline, maybe you're not ready to roll with the big dogs.

I saw someone online clowning on NimbleCSV for being slow using a contrived vibecoded benchmark comparing it to a Rust NIF, so I present a technical rebuttal: gist.github.com/Nezteb/02de1... #ElixirLang Don't be cringe online; NimbleCSV is great; don't blame it for your bad parsing decisions.

It’s simple: If humans do too much programming they get RSI, but if AIs do too much programming they get RSI

Congratulations to Elixir on their latest release! A very exciting time for types on the BEAM

Time to remove the rc qualifier! elixir-lang.org/blog/2026/06... #ElixirLang

The money was always there for the good things.

iddqd, or the hardest kind of unsafe Rust. My first post for the @oxide.computer blog! Goes deep into the pitfalls of unsafe Rust and how to reason about it. A lot of labor went into the post -- please have a read! oxide.computer/blog/iddqd-u...

In a world where there are too many podcasts, ThinkingElixir has always been a breath of fresh air; we're losing a gem here. @brainlid.bsky.social and @david.bernheisel.com are amazing engineers and podcast hosts. Episode 157 was probably my favorite: podcast.thinkingelixir.com/157 #ElixirLang

There should be official posts soon. I had the brainwave and some spare effort to build this. The Erlang Ecosystem Registry. Register your company. Show how many we actually are. Keep up to date on major ecosystem initiatives. All free. marketing.erlef.org/news/registr... #elixirlang #erlang #gleam

As an anthropologist, I endorse this message!

my soul is a safetensor. it's literally a pickle. it's on the blockchain with ads. it's literally in protobufs. you can probably find it in a wad file. dude it's a nix flake. it's a cbor original. you can see it in markdown on github. you can go to github and see it. log on to github right now.

look how they massacred my boy

If an LLM is conscious, you have to accept that you can pause and fork consciousness. Flesh firmware is toast. Parfit’s fission cases stop being thought experiments and everything becomes … fucked? Locke’s continuity, cooked. Descartes before the horse.

A good third of the CVEs I find are just `String.to_atom/1` calls in places where you wouldn't expect malicious input. Just remove them. Unless absolutely needed, never use them and if you do: never trust the input. #ElixirLang

Oban v2.23 is out! Another off-cadence release, entirely dedicated to resilience, performance, and correctness (nothing shiny here): ☣️ Unique state checks 🪵 Resilient retry exhaustion ☕ Jittered queue dispatch hexdocs.pm/oban/2.23.0/...

I like to steal ideas from functional programming like TEA or sans-io.readthedocs.io to prevent inconsistent state

software engineering is about two things: - when to use sqlite - when to use postgres

YOU’RE LISTENING TO SISYPHUS FM, THE HOME OF NON-STOP ROCK

As a science fiction writer I really fucking resent tech bros for ruining the phrase "artificial intelligence." 80 years of it being all about cool androids and interesting computers destroyed by five years of "Spicy autocorrect making everything shittier for money." NEVER FORGIVE.

btw Ecto version 3.14 is out and has UUIDv7 support! #elixirlang

Truly a golden age for scammers.

OpenAI Announces Construction Of New Data Center On Top Of Sick Child

The Oban test suite is now fully async with zero flakes across 100 runs! The trick? Preventing _all_ global state leaks (telemetry, pubsub, logging, db reset)

the overwhelming message the AI industry has sent to young people is “this will ruin any chance you have at a stable career”, of course college grads are booing it regardless of the reality of the claims, the way this technology has been sold is one of the greatest self-inflicted PR disasters ever

GitHub switching status page default language to German in order to return to five neins

Big diff go brrrrr

I'm not sure why people are only so recently up in arms about forming an LLM. I've been saying pass-through taxation is terrible for years!

enough. i’m tired of github actions. it’s time for github consequences

heard a guy say "you have to access it through the portal" and i was momentarily struck by how sad it is that what he said is so boring :( "accessing it via the portal" should be wonderful. we deserve that at least. it should be cool to access it via the portal and instead it sucks shit

Mythos' underwhelming results for curl are a great example of why Open Source is even more important now that we have access to these tools. curl is more secure because everyone can tinker with it. We should be doubling down on Open Source rather than closing projects in panic.
