I figured I should talk more about things I think are cool, and stop obsessing with making every blog post perfect. So here you go: a cool thing I learnt closing a three-year-old Gleam issue giacomocavalieri.me/writing/glea...

The Gleam build tool has support for Elixir and can compile both Elixir dependencies and @elixir-lang.org source files in your Gleam project 💡

"So far, the only bugs we've seen in our Gleam codebase are mistakes in business logic - nothing that would actually crash in production," says Georges Boris, Chief Design Officer at Uncover. Read the full case study: gleam.run/case-studies...

Software devs, please don't use a genAI logo for your next project Consider instead: - Not having a logo (many popular libraries are just fine without one!) - Simple word art (see curl's logo) - Using existing CC0 (etc.) symbols - If you really want it, seek out an artist/designer in your community

In a world full of Gophers, Rubyists, Alchemists, Racketeers and others, you can be a Gleamlin too! No need to choose 🫶

Is AI ruining our skills? Early results are in and they’re not good https://lobste.rs/s/d0vsgl ##ai ##vibecoding

One of the best things about Gleam is our community 🫶 Hop on to learn more, help others, meet people, share your project and be amazed by what others are creating with Gleam!

Gleam is free from corporate interference and control, but that means financially we rely entirely on our sponsors! Please consider supporting Gleam, even if just a couple of dollars. Thank you! 💖 gleam.run/sponsor/

now would also be a great time to go start the repo if you haven't already or if you're just learning about lustre 🥺👉👈 github.com/lustre-labs/...

Bixby fuck my shit up

`use`ful animation or something like that

executive dysfunction is a bitch

OK Jak's animated slides are setting the bar unreasonably high for Gleam talks. Irresponsible amounts of talent on display. www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6_J...

I post this, go to sleep and wake up to my stuff being unreachable. And, who coulda guessed it, it's always dns...

The rainbow is here all year long, so we don't need to change the profile for June. But it is a good time to remind everyone that LGBTQIA+ rights are under attack all year long as well. And to steal @haskell.org's message: there would be no Gleam without trans people 🩵🩷🤍

Gleam v1.17.0 is out now! ✨ gleam.run/news/single-...

Gleam v1.17.0-rc2 is out now for testing github.com/gleam-lang/g...

It genuinely would be helpful to have a tiny maid help out sometimes

This is so fucking disgusting.

the thing that stands out to me about everything i've seen from the @gleam.run gathering is the amount of laughter. this is such a happy community of nerds

WSL is so cool they embedded an actually usable OS into windows

"AI as a Fascist Artifact" Quite a long read by @tante.cc

The Gleam install page is a piece of art #GLeamLang #ElixirLang #IndieDev

Running arbitrary code your users push is totally sane and safe right? /s

Gleam Core Team Panel from Gleam Gathering 2026 is now public: youtu.be/LgfzH_WBlr4 ⭐

at this stage of debugging

me today

running `nixos-rebuild` on my laptop to warm my hands up

all the lesbians moved to nix that's why its good

At a time of 2 local privilege escalation vulnerabilities I find a good time to finally get my blog post on nixos and its relation with secrets out. I would summarise it with the following words: PLEASE DO NOT PUT SECRETS IN THE NIX STORE. IT IS WORLD-READABLE. isabelroses.com/blog/nixos-a...

Have you ever wanted to get updates from RSS / Atom feeds sent to you by email? No?? Well too bad; now you can! Source available on tangled: tangled.org/ollie.earth/...

You're building so many great things with Gleam, we decide to make a showcase site! Tell us about your project here: ⭐ forms.gle/Yu6QZfnxNKXM... ⭐

i need a BCI to just note my thoughts down during walks because the act of [pulling out my phone/notepad/voice recorder and trying to put them into words] takes up like 70% of my RAM and my brain offloads most of the details directly into /dev/null faster than I can record the first word

If you want to be a better engineer, you need to take estrogen. Every 10x dev I know is on E. The mass Rust migration? E. Your favorite open source maintainer? On E. The girl using NixOS on a ThinkPad from 2012 who rewrote your entire infra in a weekend? On E. Stay competitive or get left behind.

this would fix the website

We have moved! Our main domain and AT Protocol handle changed from radicle.xyz to radicle.dev. Read more at radicle.dev/2026/04/23/d...

Binary pattern matching in BEAM languages feels like a super power, what do you mean this is all I need to parse a binary DNS packet??

It's here! gleam_stdlib v1 released!

Bluesky laid off all the Tech Priests and now the machines won’t listen

Gleam being so small you could learn it in just a couple afternoons with the online language tour, give it a try! tour.gleam.run
