"Those taxes you just paid? The money is going straight into Trump's pocket" would be good messaging

Today's Low Quality Ad is for this Guillotine T-shirt. I know inflation has been rough lately. But it's important to understand that inflation doesn't affect everything. For example, while grocery costs have skyrocketed the price of guillotines has remained relatively stable. collabs.shop/c2zki8

Today is off to a great start! I had a nice morning with my daughter before I took her to school, then I sat down to start at work and found my PR had a review from the legendary @josevalim.bsky.social! It's such a privilege to work somewhere with a Dashbit dev subscription. ❤️

They’re cutting your healthcare to pay for a war that’s raising your gas prices.

"Researchers at Stanford University modeled how many people could die or be disabled in 25 years if vaccines for polio, measles, rubella or diphtheria were no longer available." Polio: 23k paralyzed Measles: 290k deaths Rubella: 41k born w/ congenital rubella syndrome Diphtheria: 138k-1M deaths

I keep seeing people ask about the 25th Amendment. Guys. His entire Cabinet is walking around in shoes that don’t fit because they’re scared to take them off. The 25th is never happening.

I made a PR at work that reduces the time our test suite takes to run by more than 50% consistently and it makes me unreasonably happy. 😊

Take me down to the Parallax city where the far moves slow and the near moves quickly

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump. Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

>looking for a new ai company logo >ask the graphic designer if the logo is a butthole or an animal >she doesnt understand >pull out illustrated diagram explaing what is butthole and what is animal >she laughs and says “it’s a good logo sir” >contract for logo >its a butthole

Flashbangs burn hotter then lava. They've caused serious burns, severed hands, and even killed. *That's* what ICE just tossed into a car full of kids. Here's our investigation from 2015, by @juliaangwin.com: www.propublica.org/article/flas...

This is 10th-grader Arnoldo Bazan. A citizen. Immigration agents grabbed him and put him in a chokehold. "We're from the United States bro!' he screamed. Agents took and sold his phone And when he finally got home hours later, his shirt was ripped, he neck had angry, red welts, and he sobbed.

Read this story and decide if this is the America you want to live in. ICE saw a Latino man driving a car. Chased him down and rammed him. Just because he wasn’t white. He was just a guy - an American citizen - driving to the auto shop.

It’s fun setting up a new Linux machine and seeing the packages installing, recognizing things I used to contribute to. I miss those days.

If someone ever buys X, I hope they rename it to Twitter. Then every website or news broadcaster can start referring to it as Twitter (Formerly X (Formerly Twitter)).

My daughter likes Beethoven! I must be doing something right! ❤️

Kate Rezentes is talking metrics at @elixirconf.bsky.social

Web scraping issues presented from the perspectives of both the scraper and the server operator by @tylerayoung.com at @elixirconf.bsky.social

Chris McCord is talking this morning at @elixirconf.bsky.social

Best “one more thing” from a presentation ever, complements of @josevalim.bsky.social. So psyched to try it out.

Phoenix #LiveView 1.1.5 is out now with a new `stream_async` function very similar to github.com/utopos/live_... and a small bugfix for hooks inside of teleported elements! #MyElixirStatus hexdocs.pm/phoenix_live...

I can’t believe I’m paying money to live in this horrible Airbnb. This person should be banned from the platform. Only 21 more days before I get to write this person a review.

Phoenix 1.8.0 is released! 🎉 www.phoenixframework.org/blog/phoenix...

I'm disappointed by Airbnb's policy that prevents you from cursing in reviews of places you stay. I would like to provide the most accurate review I can of the place I'm staying for the month of August. I feel like a few F-bombs would go a long way towards making that happen.

Phoenix #LiveView 1.1 is out now! (Actually already yesterday, but we were only able to release the blog post now) #MyElixirStatus phoenixframework.org/blog/phoenix...

Kevin McLeod, who for 20 years has been the "royalty-free music guy" online, has just launched a new website where other composers will also be offering royalty-free music for anyone to use in their projects: freepd.com

Amazon Prime day my ass. Via @juddlegum.bsky.social.

In 1960s Vienna the socialist city government decided—against vehement protests of the conservatives—to spend a lot of money on a major civil engineering flood protection project. In 2013, the Danube reached a 500-year flood in Vienna. Nothing was destroyed and no one got seriously hurt.

The Trump admin in a nutshell; in order to justify their own mistake, they’re going to release a violent felon with five deportations so he can testify against the guy with no criminal record they mistakenly deported. In other words, the story is always more important than the principle.

It would appear we are now, officially, the bad guys

I hate how everything I want to read these days is behind a paywall. I understand newspapers, but now more personal and blog type posts are all on Medium or Substack. Even posts about wealth inequality are only accessible to those who can and will pay. Slightly ironic.

all conservatives are bots

AT&T should stop sending balance due emails from att-mail.com, it looks so fake and sketchy.

Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

This seems like a great day to remind Bluesky that Stephen Miller lived four doors down from me freshman year And our student council person asked him (and everyone) to sign a birthday card for our dorm’s janitor And he threw a tantrum and wrote an op-ed about not socializing with “the help.”

As we're getting ready for the first release candidate of #Phoenix #LiveView 1.1, I want to write about some of the new features and improvements we've been working on. A thread! #ElixirLang #MyElixirStatus

Rockstar is looking for C# developers for their game services in MA, CA and NY: job-boards.greenhouse.io/rockstargame...

Introducing Tidewave: tidewave.ai While working on our web apps, we run code, query the database, read logs, search docs… but our AI tools are limited to reading code. Tidewave closes this gap by introducing Runtime Intelligence, for Phoenix and Rails. More coming soon, check out the website!

The Erlang SSH library has a critical security vulnerability that allows arbitrary code execution. Upgrade to OTP 27.3.3 (or others noted below) ASAP #ElixirLang

I finally found the 2025 way of interacting with cookies from a LiveView. Much thanks to @steffend.me! Pretty elegant, hope it gets merged into LiveView soon. gist.github.com/SteffenDE/38... #Elixir

git reflog to the rescue!

As a German who had classes about the concentration camps in every school year, stories like these sound horribly familiar. You dehumanize a minority group and deport them to a country where your citizens and judges can’t see what’s happening. It’s the Nazi playbook all over again.

A little demo doing this in #ElixirLang / iex

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.
