A picture of Reviewers' Choice Award 2024 for the Design Principles of the Elixir Type system by Giuseppe Castagna, Guillaume Duboc, and José Valim, in The Art, Science, and Engineering of Programming.

We saw tons of progress on Elixir's type system in 2024. We started the year with a Best Paper award, then Elixir v1.17 in May with data-type warnings, and now Elixir v1.18 with type checking + inference on function calls.

Today I started working on v1.19, I'll share more here as it progresses!

Oh yeah brother!

No OSS Friday today! Kicked off winter break chilling w/ the kids and then played some PoE 2. Tomorrow we’ll be hunting a Black Rayquaza 🔥🔥🔥

🤔 Hmm… I’m going to have to take this igniter thing for a spin

Whoa! Had no idea. Thanks for the share

For OSS Friday, I added a few more components to Phoenix UI. I missed last Friday because... Disneyland, but am also including the components pushed right before the trip:

- Backdrop
- Badge
- Breadcrumb
- Button
- Divider
- Paper
- Popover
- Progress

Jace Warren - Replacing a Billion+ Record per Day Cassandra Cluster With Elixir and SQLite YouTube video by EMPEX Conference

At my previous company, the PromEx Ecto dashboard (hexdocs.pm/prom_ex/all....) got us 99% of the way there. The only additional SQLite-specific metrics we monitored were basically disk space and self-partitioned files, as we were writing to many concurrent files per server.

Thanks for putting this together! I’m always looking for more Elixir devs to follow

Just added another star for you all 😄

I think I'm going to start doing OSS Fridays 🤔

I’ve got a few things I’ve been building in my current project that could maybe benefit the open-source community. I also just love collaboration and iterating/improving on things 💻✨

I've been away from elixir for a while now, but I've returned recently and am excited to start working on github.com/keatz55/phoe... again. From here on out, will adopt a model similar to ui.shadcdn.com, focusing on components designed for easy copy-and-paste integration into your apps.

Sounds fun. Good luck

When I have a list page, I store filter, pagination, etc. data in query params. Upon opening a modal, I keep the query params in the new url. That way, when the modal closes, the list page keeps the previous state. I’ve done this with every framework I’ve ever worked in, now including liveview

Agreed! This hits me multiple times a day

Changed the game!

Great news for the Elixir Community!

Thoughts On A New Distributed Systems Language (or languages) I wrote previously about being hired to write a new dist-sys programming language for Wayfair in Berlin and my thoughts on what that would…

Last day and Scottish Government - looking for a job again.

Traditionally I write stuff to get work, and here is my greatest hits package (#erlang, #elixir gies-a-job)
