Happy New Year!
People coming from Ruby/JS/Python keep tripping on this: x = 1 x = 2 Looks like mutation, right? Nope. In Elixir, = is pattern matching. Those are two separate bindings to two different values. The old value still exists. The name just points somewhere else now. This one shift explains why Elixir concurrency works without locks and why code stays predictable when things get messy.

Anyone in the @ash-hq.org community interested in championing the work on github.com/ash-project/...? I've got so much to do I just don't think I can give it the time it deserves. Think of it like an Ash wrapper around Phoenix.Sync with a bunch of goodies out of the box. Any takers? #ElixirLang 👇
New Ash extension for working with AI, LLMs, MCP and vector embedding.
Check it out and give it a star!

Thank you Saša!!
As I'm about to send a few follow-up mails, I'm reminded how conferences are, above all, about human connection. @gigcityelixir.bsky.social was packed with insightful talks, of course, but what I'll remember most are the unstructured, informal chats about tech, life, and everything in between.
Small world!! Love that some of our Conference folks are together in Krakow!

@grzuy.bsky.social on building an exception tracker in #elixirlang - been excited to see the approach they take with this one, it’s a topic a lot of people seem to bake up solutions for differently
