hi ko-fi.com/qexat

Hayleigh is by far one of the best devs I’ve ever met, and an amazing teacher of difficult concepts too! If you’re hiring I can’t sing her praises enough!

i'm putting the feelers out for frontend-y dev rel-y docs-y gigs that are 2-3 days a week. if you know someone looking for someone who can do gleam/elm/react/write words, hit me up 💕

The gleam community is so tight-knit that everyone I follow there also follow each other. This means that when one post is reposted by one person, everyone else also reposts it so my feed becomes the same post reposted by 10 different people

I didn't know c418 was on here! Also this

i've not even released clique yet and someone is already using it to build out their personal site!! the gleam community is just built different i swear

There‘s still a bit to go to making this happen. Rebar is an important piece to using erlang not just for erlang, but just as much for elixir, gleam, … Consider backing this effort.

All I saw was cheesecake boat and ocean for at least 5 minutes

‘Booty’ and ‘butt’ are synonyms. ‘Call’ and ‘dial’ are synonyms. But, a ‘booty call’ and a ‘butt dial’ are VERY different things.

While it could still be better, renewables have been booming in the past 10 years. Solar itself has grown ~1000% in that time period, and battery tech is evolving rapidly in all the good ways. Even with recent setbacks with federal stuff, we hit a HUGE milestone this year!

Not too far to go on this now! Would be great to see this funded

The battle cry of @zackpolanski.bsky.social

Another great issue for those who want to dip their toes into the compiler to see how it works: github.com/gleam-lang/g... This one is really straightforward, but it gives you an opportunity to look through how the code flows in the compiler

Backed! Let's hope this gets funded, it would be great to merge rebar into OTP!

Agreed, this is madness. I have lost all faith in the Labour party and now my hope is with @zackpolanski.bsky.social and the Green party.

Less than a month left to submit your talk proposal! gleamgathering.com#call-for-talks ⏰

One of my favourite features of the Gleam build tool is that if you try to publish a library with a version 0.x.x, you need to type "I am not using semantic versioning" before it lets you publish

I cannot overstate just how awful this stupid fucking bill proposal is - adding backdoors into encryption on OS level - "sniff" every single message before it gets encrypted AND SAVE IT CENTRALLY - let a goddamn hallucinating "AI" mark people as criminals it needs to be stopped, post haste

Hey Firefox users.

If someone feels like starting to contribute to the Gleam compiler there's this new good first issue! Compilers are not scary, give it a try and see for yourself ⭐️💕 github.com/gleam-lang/g...

realistic Star Trek

Can confirm, contributing to the compiler is a lot of fun! The codebase is really well written and the team is really nice and helpful?/(Totally unbiased opinion here)

shit like this cannot be ignored and is everyone's problem. there is real evil and danger happening and you will start seeing friends and family disappear if people dont step up. this is not just some guy talking shit. do your research outinstl.com/republican-c...

“We do have systems that are written in mainstream programming languages like Python and JavaScript, but our strategy is to pick the best tool for the job, not just the most popular. Gleam was a good fit for our requirements.” Read the whole case study here: gleam.run/case-studies... ⭐

"As one of the first companies in the world to run Gleam in production, Strand took a risk. Two years later, the development team is delighted with the decision." 💡

Gleam just broke 20,000 GitHub stars! Wow that's a lot of Gleamlins 💖

👀

My favourite bit of the Gleam website has returned github.com/gleam-lang/w...

The gleam-lang organisation now has a GitHub sponsors account! If you're already sponsoring lpil you don't need to switch-over, sponsorship to either goes directly to the Gleam project. github.com/sponsors/gle...

Is it just me or did Rust Analyzer just get worse? Lately features like go-to definition don't seem to work 100% of the time, and I often need to save a file again to get the LS to reset so it works properly. Very annoying

If anyone is looking for an Elm replacement, try out Gleam with Lustre: hexdocs.pm/lustre/index...

Is Gleam production ready? Spoiler alert: yes it is! Check out part I of John's blog about putting the language to use: lindbakk.com/blog/is-glea...

Heck yeah I've made it as "Real Life Squirrel" 🐿️💕 Btw it would be so nice if people went and sponsored this pretty cool open source project 👀 gleam.run/sponsor/

Anyone have a space in London that the Gleam London meetup can use? Would love somewhere we can have a few short presentations from folks

The first ever Gleam conference!!!!

This is extremely relatable

This is going to be so much fun!

My god, Erlang triple-quoted strings are so complex and hard to lex

One day, Gleam is going to be the best thing, better than anything you can imagine. This is an extremely cool fact.

Whoa, Gears has made a video overview of Gleam v1.12.0! What a lovely surprise! www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYvy...

I'm experimenting with a new format: Doing a video covering the changes in a new Gleam release, to interactively explain all the new changes, showing code transformations etc. If you prefer watching a video to reading through the release post, check it out: youtu.be/KYvydMeTpzQ

Gleam v1.12.0 is out now!! 🌟 gleam.run/news/no-more...

I am back to sponsoring @lpil.uk at $20 / month for his amazing work on @gleam.run If you didn't catch it, Gleam was ranked as the #2 most desired programming language from the Stack Overflow survey. Louis's vision, determination, and cultivation of an impressive core team is incredible.

Full case study: gleam.run/case-studies... ⭐

Recently, @gleam.run was crowned the '2nd most desired language' in the SO Developer Survey (just behind #rustlang). ✨ So, I made this #animation to say congratulations (and to practice making these - it's my biggest animation yet)! 😊

We're coming for top 3 most desired next year!
