The NYC Elixir Meetup, organized by @davelucia.com and Kate Rezentes, brought the community together for a great evening of talks and shared experiences.

Dan Janowski joined to share how to get involved with the Foundation

hexdocs.pm/telemetry_re... fills this role for most. What does this do differently?

Too bad it's not called Zex

I love it. I wrote some zig and didn't like it. It was like writing C with JavaScript. If there was some Elixr styling to it I'd get there in a heartbeat.

oooooh i can't wait :)

Workflows in Oban Web are coming along nicely...

Now you can render to a terminal using Easel using the same Canvas API. github.com/jeregrine/Ea...

Heyo -- if anyone's using this and it works, LMK! Just wanna make sure it's not a "works on may machine" situation and I shipped something that doesn't work for folks.

I build a Neovim blink.cmp source for Hex.pm. Now you can search hex packages from your mix.exs file, and autocomplete versions.

I went with unraid, which is mostly NAS but can do docker and other VMs. None of them are wonderful. Proxmox looks good too.

HomeAssistant for all the automation stuff tho.

SkillsBench: Benchmarking How Well Agent Skills Work Across Diverse Tasks Agent Skills are structured packages of procedural knowledge that augment LLM agents at inference time. Despite rapid adoption, there is no standard way to measure whether they actually help. We prese...

arxiv.org/abs/2602.12670 This is why hexdocs.pm/usage_rules exists. Package authors need to be providing the context that will guide your agent to successfully use their package. As their library changes, they can update their agent guidance. #ElixirLang

I think this is just M1 right? Anything lacking on it?

Sagents: Build AI Agents in Elixir with Human Oversight, SubAgents, and Real-Time Debugging YouTube video by Mark Ericksen

Of course we can't turn off our brains! We still need to learn, and AI _can_ help us learn

We have to seek understanding, not accomplishment.

We have to seek a helper in AI, not doers.

Granted there are tedious tasks that are just time-consuming more than learning, and AI is ok for that too.

Oban Comes to Python Introducing fully operational, PostgreSQL-backed, fully async implementations of Oban and Oban Pro for Python.

Today we're releasing Oban for Python!

A few people have asked, so I extracted the diagnostics code from my type checker into its own package: github.com/QuinnWilton/...

This could probably use some more battle-testing, but I tossed in some examples for using it with macros, a complex DSL, with nimble_parsec, and for validating yaml.

The default theme was kinda too noisy for me, but thankfully I could make it work just like tmux and be slim and minimal. Looking at my terminal, you probably couldn't tell it's zellij.

GitHub - zellij-org/zellij: A terminal workspace with batteries included A terminal workspace with batteries included. Contribute to zellij-org/zellij development by creating an account on GitHub.

I've been using Zellij as my terminal multiplexer and it's been amazing. It's modal just like neovim, highly customizable, fast, and so far a pleasure. If you're using tmux or want persistent sessions (eg, ssh into your computer via tailscale from phone), you need this.
