Your jobs table isn't a domain model. @zachdaniel.dev shows durable workloads with AshFramework, AshStateMachine, and AshOban. Model work as state, not tasks. www.elixirconf.eu/talks/model-...

I make a free programming tool. It gives your LLM a living memory, and it can to dig into a codebase and build a deep understanding of how and why anything was done before doing beginning something new. It also nudges you into better habits while coding with an LLM overall. Learn more/try it out.

AshAdmin 1.0rc is out, with a complete UI overhaul, a rework of our markdown/json editor to code mirror, and features for more convenient relationship management and multitenancy drop-down/typeahead 🎉 #AshFramework #ElixirLang

AshJsonApi 1.6-rc.1 is out that allows transforming fields, with convenient builtins for camelizing/dasherizing fields. This applies automatically to reading, writing, filtering, sorting, field selection: everything 😎 #AshFramework #ElixirLang

“Helsinki hasn’t registered a single traffic-related fatality in the past year…Citing data that shows the risk of pedestrian fatality is cut in half by reducing a car’s speed from 40 to 30km/hr, city officials imposed the lower limit in most of Helsinki’s residential areas and city center in 2021.”

The first release candidate for Expert is out! You can read the announcement here: expert-lsp.org/the-first-re... #ElixirLang

I'm making a free open source media center app for my TV and we're struggling like crazy to come up with a name for it. Any ideas? No wrong answers.

So.. we're all expecting llm rug pull where the price skyrockets, yeah? It's get everyone hooked with a business model that doesn't work and then bleed em dry, I suspect.

This is exactly why we're building Vatly. EU-based. EU-hosted. No US jurisdiction exposure. If you're migrating from Lemon Squeezy, consider an EU alternative before defaulting to another US platform. bsky.app/profile/sand...

I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland. And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.

Over the years, we've cut speaker flight travel from 75% to 50% by booking sustainable alternatives. In 2025, 57% of our participants used train or local transportation (compared to 35% before). We also support sustainable projects. Continue reading: buff.ly/Gql24xG and join the conference.

Just arrived in Oslo for no reason. Never been to Norway and just want to poke around.

Selecting random fan translations on my mister fpga, I came across this Super Nintendo game that I've never heard of before. Warriors - Legend of the Blue Dragon It's a turn based side scrolling battle game that is strange from top to bottom. Hidden gem. archive.org/details/warr...

For even more fun, you can capture the struct module 😁 def add_one_hour(%date_or_time{} = value) when date_or_time in [DateTime, NaiveDateTime, Time] do ... end

I had the please to speak with @eddmann.com about event sourcing lessons learned from 10 years of production and a bunch of related patterns and concerns that have surrounded this architectural choice. I'm glad that we were able to cover a lot of non-introductory material here.

imagine if all that money had gone to teachers instead

Nobody asked, but here's my experience of raising kids in / protecting them from the current technological environment.

The VS Code extension for expert, the new official Elixir language server, is finally published 🥳 marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemNa... open-vsx.org/extension/Ex... Expert is still early in development (pre-0.1) but working quite well already. #elixirlang

Ep. 17: Event Sourcing with Shawn McCool @shawnmc.cool shares how event sourcing fundamentally changed how he thinks about modeling software. if you've felt stuck in the "way we've always done it" mindset, this one's for you 👇 🎧 compiledconversations.com/17/ 1/5

I sort of expected to hear a bunch of exciting updates about Expert the Elixir LSP implementation but it's been quiet and the website seemingly has no details. Anyone heard anything? What's the best venue through which to be kept up to date?

Given everything happening right now, I updated this article with options for weather apps, web forms, and translation services — along with some tweaks to existing categories. I hope it helps your transition off US tech!

Cars (so often as they're used now) are an evolutionary dead end. Let's just have and vision and start closing the gap. Individual car ownership in cities is especially wasteful.

I wonder how I could find creative studios that need top quality server software. It would be pretty cool to work in such an environment while doing what I do best and enabling them to do what they do best.

I'm a 30+ years of experience programmer who is always looking for a capable / compatible artist to build a game with.

This is a long read, but a *very* good one.

I can't find any example of a class based language that prohibits mutable state. The message couldn't be clearer. Class based object orientation is a paradigm based around mutable state.

Starting to feel proper comfortable with Ash framework. It's like anything, once you learn the model it's pretty simple, but it's unusually weird to pick up. It's partly due to the fact that it comes across as being really CRUD, even though you don't have to use it that way.

Hey Elixir friends! :) We need help completing Elixir's browser runtime by porting some Erlang functions to JavaScript. No Erlang knowledge required. Each function unlocks multiple Elixir stdlib functions! More here: hologram.page/blog/elixir-... #Hologram #Elixir #ElixirLang #BEAM #WebDev

This talk is a must-watch for people in the Event-Driven space. I saw @noctovis.bsky.social giving it live at this year's DDDEU, and I truly believe that she nailed the versioning topic 👇🙂 www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TCb...

Ep. 13: Building on the BEAM, Part 2 w/ @shawnmc.cool We continue our chat with exploration of #Elixir's ecosystem: - Phoenix LiveView & real-time apps - Ecto's composable queries - Nerves for IoT & embedded systems - Nx, LiveBook & Tidewave 🎧 compiledconversations.com/13/

The State of Elixir Survey for 2025 is live! elixir-survey.typeform.com/2025-edition Fill it out if you have any connection to the Elixir ecosystem. It really helps us understand what happens. Curiosum are awesome to run this for the community. #elixirlang

Hence deferring strategy to name "things" might be really desirable, as "naming is framing" - then "models" (of thinking) then are constrainted just by the act of "naming". I tried to express some thoughts on that topic too talesfrom.dev/blog/the-amb...

I was recently on a podcast discussing Erlang / Elixir and the significant advantages that its runtime environment can bring over the industry status quo. I worked to specifically providing insight for my PHP / Java / C# experienced friends. bsky.app/profile/eddm...

Ep. 12: Building on the BEAM, Part 1 w/ @shawnmc.cool Why do #Erlang & #Elixir excel at distributed systems? We explore: • Process isolation & concurrency • Actor model & message passing • "Let it crash" philosophy • Hot code upgrades 🎧 compiledconversations.com/12/

I love that there's always a TUI (terminal ui) app for things that I want to do, and that they never have customizable keymaps...

Hey bksy, I’m on the look out for my next project, I’m an experienced Elixir dev (> 8 years commercially, and > 10 years of Ruby before that + I'm still the maintainer of RSpec), very familiar with Phoenix and LiveView, and have enough CSS / JS knowledge to approach projects from a full stack angle.

Very good article on the AI hype - AI is most useful in tech, there there are the highest number of, and earliest adopters If AI was the productivity booster we should see its effects in secondary artefacts (apps released, domains registered, public github repos, video games, etc, etc)

I do like Oban as a service / product. But regardless of that, they have my absolutely favorite sales site. oban.pro

No, Your Domains and Bounded Contexts Don’t Map 1 on 1. It sounds clean and logical, but it’s wrong. Read about it in my latest article: verraes.net/2025/08/doma...

The easiest work to do is whatever can convince us that we're justified in avoiding the work we know we SHOULD be doing.
