Tremendous thanks to all the contributors, and to Jump for sponsoring @katafrakt.bsky.social to work on this full-time. 🙏

I like Ousterhout's ideas on deep modules and noticed Claude seems to expose a lot of functions I would keep as internal implementation details - so I had Claude build me a SKILL.md for deep module design.

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
Not saying they have nothing to offer but it's always a bit odd to me to see people making a career out of teaching entrepreneurship while never having started a business, let alone a startup - especially from the "ex McKinsey" crowd. "Creator of the StartupMethod TM" - former corp consultant

It's still a shell of a library, but personally I'm really excited about it. BEAM nodes are easy to deploy near users, getting the data there as well has always been the hard part. Hopefully this solves that.
For now, it's just me having fun with NIFs. #elixirlang

RIP, my baby.
After caring for a sick cat post-ER I'm thinking about how patient discharge for pets is kind of broken. We're still getting paper handouts with hand-typed text instructions like it's 1975. IDK if my thing is a *thing* but I hope somebody solves this problem.

"A former coworker of mine, Michael Novati, the fastest coder at Facebook for years, had a day this February where he landed 417 PRs on GitHub. How long would it take you to review that?" 😬
The level of game for much of the user-facing software out there right now is so low that I expect vibe coding will likely improve affairs for a lot of it. And be at the price point Bob and Bob and Bob and Bob's Autoparts Direct wants to pay.
Why Elixir?
"Elixir is built on Erlang/BEAM/OTP, which is great for supervising long-running processes. It has an active ecosystem of tools and libraries. It also supports hot code reloading without stopping actively running subagents, which is very useful during development."
We were kind of hyping Elixir to the OpenAI dev at the Elixir BoF table at The Pragmatic Summit. Kinda makes me wonder if this new OpenAI thing being in Elixir has any relationship to that convo (probably not but would be cool!)

New blog post up: the culmination of my past few months working with agents Opus 4.5 and beyond, and the *many* things I learned. Also, the discovery of an optimization trick with promise.
As a bonus: this post will make Rust engineers very mad. minimaxir.com/2026/02/ai-a...
