I'm pulling the plug on Code Code Ship next week Friday. As part of this, I'm releasing highlander_pg as open source. It's a variant of my original highlander package, which uses postgres advisory locks. It's solid! It is ergonomic! It is production-tested! hex.pm/packages/hig... #elixirlang

Wrapped up my conference season for this year with #goatmire Elixir. Had too much fun telling a story one last time, and had even more fun watching some of the most unusual and memorable talks I've ever seen. Photo credits: @petterbos.bsky.social

Testing out Elixir 1.19-rc.0. App compilation times are unchanged. But dependency compilation is pinning all 24 cores on my machine and is down to 55s from 143s. Big upgrade! #elixirlang

I just published this video, and the next night, Russia launches drones at Poland. It really underscores the point. The European NATO countries need Ukraine just as much as Ukraine needs security guarantees from them.

youtu.be/RxapAZRYJ6I?... I have to post this video by @anderspucknielsen.dk. If you want to know how (and why) Ukraine really fits into our security in Europe then watch this video.

Toronto has tried this with Bloor, University and Yonge by installing bike lanes, making the street safer, slower for all and Ford is going to court again to rip them out. So speed cameras it as good as we might get (ignoring the "tax grab" nonsense toddler rhetoric).

A friend’s 3-year old on a pedestrian street: “There’s no cars here so we don’t have to hold hands. I can run!”

In #Phoenix #LiveView v1.1.0-rc.0 we shipped `:key` support for comprehensions in HEEx. The idea was to finally be able to have change tracking in comprehensions. We did this by leveraging LiveComponents. Sounds easy enough, right? There were some problems though. A thread. #MyElixirStatus

PSA: Tailwind (aka Phoenix) users should add the following CSS to their project: .\@container > * + * { border: 5px solid red !important; } With a comment saying "if you see this, you messed up, containers should only ever have one child element!" #elixirlang

Are we doing transit hot takes? America (🇺🇸) has lots of transit actually, it just needs to use it. America has a land use problem, not a transit problem. (Exception: NYC)

One of the most consequential transit Youtube videos has just dropped:

TIL ExUnit has an assert/2, where you can provide a message to show if the assertion fails! This makes communicating intent of tests so much easier. h/t @richardtaylor.dev who used this in our codebase, never seen it before! hexdocs.pm/ex_unit/1.12...

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

omg every neuron of my brain just started sparking with joy at this subreddit www.reddit.com/r/ThingsCutI...

These are negotiations about a ceasefire. It is insane to give these kinds of concessions before the negotiations about a final peace settlement even begin. One has to wonder what Russia will expect to get at that point.

⭐ Just released CurlReq 0.100.1. ⭐ Release includes a Plug to log requests in 🥌 curl format. It also now initializes requests with Req.new/0, solving issue related to defaults being missing. h/t @peterullrich.com for raising the issue Once again many thanks to @kevinschweikert.de!

this is wild: vehicle capacity of freeway lanes dropped 10 percent as SUVs took over the road -- not just bc they are bigger. they also take more time and space to slow down and obscure other drivers' sightlines. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Premier Schoof zegt: “We gaan de lasten niet bij latere generaties neerleggen.” Klinkt verstandig, toch? Maar dit is een klassiek staaltje framing. Hoe de staatsschuld bewust negatief wordt geframed door Heinen en Schoof. 🧵

this is a fantastic library

🥌 🥌 🥌 CurlReq 0.100.0 released!~ This release contains a mountain of fixes and improvements, courtesy of @kevinschweikert.de Please do give it a go! CurlReq supercharges api integration / debugging by translating back and forth between curl commands and req structs #elixirlang

Published highlander_pg 1.0.7 with an updated dependency on postgrex (now also allows 0.20.0). hex.codecodeship.com/package/high... #elixirlang

On my way to FOSDEM!

🥳 My PR got merged, so this will soon be the default in phx.new projects! github.com/phoenixframe...

AWESOME! Coming in ex_doc soon is a new button to go to the latest version's documentation if you happen to be on an earlier version. I often find myself googling something, getting a hexdocs.pm link but for some inexplicable reason it puts me into an old version of it github.com/elixir-lang/...

Phoenix LiveView PRO TIP: [data-phx-root-id] { display: contents } ☝️ Add this to your app.css file. WHAT DOES IT DO? LiveView adds wrapper divs everywhere. This can be tricky if you want a LiveView to be a flex child. display: contents makes the div invisible for layout purposes. #elixirlang

🥌 🥌 🥌 curl_req 0.99.0 released! 🥌 🥌 🥌 - Supports curl flags --proxy and --proxy-user - Adds `netrc` and `netrc_file` auth steps - [BREAKING] Raises on unrecognized `curl` flag. Please let us know if the last one breaks your programs. Open an issue in the project; PRs also welcome!

Phoenix pro tip for degenerates 👹 #elixirlang

Phoenix pro tip! 👨‍🏫 To comment out / disable a tailwind class or an HTML attribute, prefix it with an `x`. This effectively disables the class / attribute, and is also easily reversed. #elixirlang

I bought a CD last week, cause Spotify doesn't bother with smaller Canadian labels (every song from the CD but one disappeared overnight). Fired up the CD just now and it doesn't even sound like the same CD. Spotify's compression, even on "very high" audio quality is just 🗑️.

Great tip, I think I was tipped off by @jonrowe.bsky.social on slack

Did we mess up and give the "nice syntax" to keyword lists instead of maps in Elixir? (Keyword lists came first, maps were a later addition to the lang). Now we mostly just kind of squint and pretend that keyword lists are maps (like in Config, where keyword lists are deep-merged). #elixirlang

Today's new feature on Code Code Ship: download stats! Currently only visible for package owners, and will be rolled out to the publicly facing pages at some future date. (These are the download stats for highlander_pg)

Finishing the week up elixirevents.net updates, you can now suggest changes to existing events! If an event is cancelled, date or time changed, logo updated etc, click on the event and then on "something wrong?" to make a suggestion #elixirlang

In case you missed it, there's an Elixir meetup next Tuesday @ Wg Cafe www.meetup.com/amsterdam-elixir/events/304781708 #elixirlang #myelixirstatus Bring your friends along 🤗

Couldn't sleep, so I merged a PR and made a new release for curl_req. Now supporting --data-raw, --data-ascii, and stripping $ from messages (frequently seen copying curl reqs from browser). PR: github.com/derekkraan/c... (h/t @dkuku.bsky.social) Pkg: hex.pm/packages/cur... #elixirlang

I want to share something I built for the Elixir community: elixirevents.net ✨ I want to make it easier to find events like conferences and meetups, to help the community grow. Anyone can contribute, events are only visible with admin approval. For feature requests or feedback please let me know! 🙏

🥳 HighlanderPG 1.0.6 is out! This adds support for the `:repo` option, allowing easier than ever setup. HighlanderPG helps you run a singleton process in your cluster, and is available for $100 a year at hex.codecodeship.com/package/high... #elixirlang
