It legally wasn't harassment. If it was, he would have not been let go. That word means a real thing and this was not it.

Just build Mac apps then. Claude Code can help you whip up real native apps without any Glaze dependencies just fine. I’ve built 4 Mac and iOS apps in the last 6 months for my own use. I even have my own HN app for iOS and Mac.

Here are some thoughts on it from José Valim: https://dashbit.co/blog/why-elixir-best-language-for-ai LLMs absolutely understand and write good Elixir. I've done complex OTP and distributed work in tandem with Son

I have a `codex-review` skill with a shell script that uses the Codex CLI with a prompt. It tells Claude to use Codex as a review partner and to push back if it disagrees. They will go through 3 or 4 back-and-forth iterations some times bef

I've been using a development server for about 9 years and the best thing I ever did was move to a machine with a low-power Xeon D for a time. It made development painful enough that I quickly fixed the performance issues I was able to

It's not though. Processes can be supervised and crashes can just lead to "restart with good state" behavior. It's not that you don't try handling any errors at all, you just can be confident that anything you misse

LiveView uploads are baked in, previews and all. Everything else you list is included in the Flop library, if you want something off the shelf. In rails you are still including Kaminari or whatever other gems for all this too, so this is re

That's so disappointing to hear. I have an intern who hadn't touched Elixir 4 weeks ago who is already making meaningful PRs. She's done the PragProg courses and leans a bit on Copilot/Claude, but she's proving how

From the example: "Oh no, I'm really sorry to hear you're having trouble with your new device. That sounds frustrating." Being patronized by a machine when you just want help is going to feel absolutely terrible. Not loo

Performance of what, exactly? Hard to beat the concurrency model and performance under load of elixir. Elixir is gaining set theoretic type system, so you are showing up at the right time. https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/main

You mean like Typescript, an add-on that transpiles to Javascript?

Do you though? M4 is what is on the market now and this chip is just coming out. Maybe they are on different processes, but you still have to compare things at a given point in time.

That's one reason I like the stainless (now Titanium) models. They have sapphire crystal instead of glass and I haven't had scratches in years. Scratches on the body are just patina.

Sorry you are having so many issues. That has not been my experience with elixir-ls either locally or in Codespaces. Just want to say that when you do get it working, it does indeed have that and many more features. If you are interested, t

Out of the box, Phoenix applications respond to simple http requests in times measured in microseconds. What appreciable improvements from that do you get with Python? And considering how much of your total request time is not processing b

I built this last March. It captures audio from a live HLS stream and transcribes and translates into 18 languages on the fly. Used by a customer with about 25K international employees for their internal events. Works surprisingly well.

I haven't been able to bring up a clustered Elixir server in hkg without experiencing netsplits every 5-10 minutes. ewr, ord, and cdg have been totally reliable.

You are wholesale calling people ignorant over a technology decision. > When disagreeing, please reply to the argument instead of calling names. "That is idiotic; 1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be shortened to "1 + 1 is 2, not 3.&
