Everyone's favorites Numerical Elixirist, one Paulo Valente, is presenting on how he is bringing Nx to embedded devices in today's (fully remote) Nerves Meetup EU. Join us. Lovely crew of Elixir enthusiasts with a bit of a hardware focus. nervesmeetup.eu/meetup/paulo... #elixirlang #nerves

Alright! Introducing Dux: distributed #DuckDB backed dataframes for #elixirlang. cigrainger.com/blog/introdu... v0.3 dropped today and with it, distribution is fully supported and Dux is officially outperforming Explorer. I'm excited to hear what you all think.

The v0.1 release of Expert (the new, official #ElixirLang LSP) is now final! 🎉 The best Elixir LSP experience keeps getting better. 😎 Tremendous thanks to all the contributors, and to Jump for sponsoring @katafrakt.bsky.social to work on this full-time. 🙏 github.com/elixir-lang/...

New blog post as my HNSW #duckdb plugin hits v0.2 with support for quantisation (rabitq) and join+where pushdown and groupby+aggregations. cigrainger.com/blog/duckdb-...

A fast, correct XPath 1.0 conformant XML parser for Elixir with a simple, combinator-based API: hexdocs.pm/simdxml/0.1.0 #elixirlang

Here's the payoff -- simdxml yields speedups on basically every workflow as a fully drop-in read-only replacement for etree in #python. And 42x on important workloads for large XML document handling. cigrainger.com/blog/simdxml... #foss

More about that XML thing. cigrainger.com/blog/simdxml/

So at Amplified we do a lot of XML parsing. I wrote an XML parser. It's quite fast. github.com/cigrainger/s...

I did something kind of funky that should work well. My library Entrace makes Erlang tracing nicer. But you don't have it installed and suddenly you need it. Hot code updates to the rescue. One-line install via precompiled BEAM files. github.com/underjord/en... #elixirlang

We are still looking for more sponsors for Goatmire Elixir. If your company wants to be on the banners and be part of making the event happen that'd be awesome. Please contact me :) #elixirlang #goatmire

Hmmmm #NewbieGains

Some patent content. But also MCP content. www.amplified.ai/en/blog/2403...

That DuckDB extension I was working on landed in community extensions today! I'm pretty excited about it -- prefiltered ACORN-1 HNSW approx nearest neighbours in #DuckDB. Even pgvector does postfiltering, for example. INSTALL hnsw_acorn FROM community; LOAD hnsw_acorn; github.com/duckdb/commu...

Hey #ElixirLang folks! Here's a little something I've been working on. I'd love some early stage feedback. dux.now

Ever wanted to use HNSW with pre-filtering on #duckdb? I'm trying to make that possible. Approximate nearest neighbours with WHERE clauses, using ACORN. github.com/duckdb/commu...

It feels good to be working on some OSS #ElixirLang stuff again. Details forthcoming, but I'm very excited about this one.

#ElixirLang folks using Explorer -- is this of interest? github.com/cigrainger/e... Polars has become a bit of an albatross. It's a very complex project with a ton of churn and it's putting the whole Explorer project at risk. So exploring alternative backends.

Well this is a nice result: "The unconditional concrete whole-compiler theorem is done."

This is up on Hex today. One of my colleagues put it together and it's been a real QoL improvement for us. github.com/amplifiedai/... #ElixirLang #Elixir

So... set theoretic types are awesome. Algebraic effects are awesome. Turns out they play really nicely together. I've got something cooking.

Nothing more exhausting than repeatedly convincing a coding agent that they will not, in fact, tire themselves out by finishing the work I asked them to do. "Given the size of the changes... for now... I'll just...' NO YOU WON'T.

Someone tell me this isn't what I think it is.

When are we getting Code BEAM Down Under? #elixirlang

We need to bring back logic programming. But, you know, modern.

There it is folks, the Goatmire tickets are on sale 🥳 Make sure to get them before they sell out.

Thanks to one of the discussions at the #GleamGathering, we decided to add more options to support Gleam development financially: now you can do it via direct bank transfer ⭐ All the details: gleam.run/sponsor

#AshFramework just hit 1 million downloads on hex 🎉 #ElixirLang

Had lots of fun chatting with Charles about dataframes! Dataframes are not just for data scientists :). #elixirlang #myelixirstatus

This is going to be a fun one!

Oban is probably the greatest library I have ever used, especially with Oban.Pro on top. The value you get for free - or for a very reasonable amount - is mind-blowing.

Phoenix 1.8 Gets Official Security Documentation paraxial.io/blog/phoenix...

After using terraform for quite a long time and always finding HCL obnoxious and never getting on really well with various aspects of terraform cloud, state issues, etc, @pulumi.com is such a breath of fresh air. ESC and Insights integrated the way they are with IaC feels like I've got superpowers.

I love @raycast.com so much EXCEPT there's no way to get support when you need it and I'm considering cancelling. I upgraded to annual and it triggered a billing problem and there has been no possible way to get help. I've put in two feedback forms about billing and nothing. No other avenues afaict.

I am looking for new #ElixirLang opportunities, so if you have anything interesting then my DMs are open

If you do stuff in Elixir, Erlang, Gleam, AtomVM or adjacently. You can just ASK to be on BEAM Radio (https://beamrad.io). We do reach out to people but very few people ask. Only the spammers in my inbox. We want to show more of what happens in the ecosystem so don't be shy :) #elixirlang #erlang

If nothing else, Rust really made CLI come back and look and feel fun.

Happily paid $5/month for @kagi.com search. I really hope to see more paid services that are ethical and ad-free. The internet is broken by large corps and it is up to smaller businesses and individuals to get it fixed for ourselves.

I've just released Handoff, a new Elixir library for distributed function graph execution. hexdocs.pm/handoff Among other things, the library enables distributed Nx computations (anyone said distributed inference?) A huge part of this was sponsored by tvlabs.ai!

Now this is exciting.

I'll never give them up.

And #ElixirLang folks: anybody using LoggerJSON and getting codepoints instead of strings for certain metadata (e.g. file)?

Hey #ElixirLang folks -- what's the status of @opentelemetry.io logs?

Configure OpenTelemetry and Honeycomb they said. It will be fun they said.

I finally want to get a logo for benchee - it looks so sad without a logo compared to other popular libraries. Any great ideas how to go about this? What I basically would love: * logo for the top of the README * icon for the gthug org #Elixir #OpenSource #Logo

Hey #elixirlang folks who use @opentelemetry.io and @sentry.io: how do you reliably get trace ids into your Sentry exceptions? I know there's some work on the official SDK to integrate, but what are folks doing today?

I enjoy an ecosystem that is not funded by a megacorp. How does Elixir continue to exist? #elixirlang

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!

Finally caught up on this talk from @cigrainger.bsky.social and it’s such a good intro to ML in Elixir youtu.be/5FlZHkc4Mq4?...

Yay! The FLAME talk @peregrine.bsky.social gave at ElixirConf US last year is finally up. This was one of my favorites of the conference. youtu.be/KrAqMyjbkJQ #ElixirLang
