I wanted to write a little blurb on filtering in ETS. Oops, I almost wrote a book. www.owencode.com/articles/its... #elixirlang #erlang

⚗️ Elixir Tip #22 - Erlang math module ⚗️ If you are ever in need of some mathematical related functions don't reach for a 3rd party library until you take a look at the Erlang :math module! #ElixirLang #Erlang #Livebook

Not vibe coding, just vibing #elixirlang

LiveView 1.2 is out now! phoenixframework.org/blog/phoenix... The highlights for me: - Colocated CSS - Support for formatters for <script> and <style> tags - New JS client docs 🎉 #ElixirLang

“wars-sorrows-files” is the most apt random password I’ve ever generated.

@elixir-lang.org @josevalim.bsky.social Congrats on 15 years! I am excited to take 1.20 for a spin. elixir-lang.org/blog/2026/01... #elixir-lang

I would tell you what I learned from this article, but I already forgot. 🤡

Speaking publicly about Elixir stuff (conference talks + podcasts) has gotten me every job I've had since 2020. (And that first one was a 50% pay bump.) I interview pretty poorly, but having been seen being smart in public got me the foot in the door I needed to prove I could do the work.

I hope you all like long blog articles. It seems I cannot write succinctly in markdown. #elixirlang

Via @josevalim.bsky.social: "We extracted Nimble ZTA (Zero Trust Auth) from Livebook as a separate package for Plug/Phoenix [...] to add auth to an internal app when your identity management and deployments are on the same platform (GCP/Cloudflare/etc)" dashbit.co/blog/zero-tr... #ElixirLang

Celebrating #Erlang’s 27th birthday as #OpenSource, Elixir Hub 2025 survey results, new data_migration LiveDashboard package, critical #React RCE vuln, and Zig leaves #GitHub, and more! #ElixirLang www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FWy...

`mix format —migrate` helped make my recent Phoenix upgrade a minutes-long, joyful experience. A couple deprecation fixes later, the code was ready for review. 🔥🦅🔥🦅🔥🦅 #elixirlang

Stay tuned everyone! Some Elixir and Nerves goodness headed your way this coming week 😍 #MyElixirStatus #ElixirLang #Erlang

🚨 New from the Socket Research Team: Malicious Go packages impersonating Google's UUID library quietly exfiltrate encrypted data to dpaste. Full report → socket.dev/blog/malicio... #golang cc: @campuscodi.risky.biz

Shout out to the organizers and crew for @exmexconf.bsky.social! That was fun and refreshing!

My team is hiring a front end focused LiveView dev. If you know of anyone with those skills hit me up.

:persistent_term.put({MyApp.Metrics, :high_throughput_stuff}, my_atomics_ref) can't wait to talk shop at @exmexconf.bsky.social. 🌮 #elixir-lang #erlang

Let me Task.async(fn -> {:ok, “get back to you on that.”} end)

1Password, Bitwarden, LastPass, Enpass, iCloud Passwords, and LogMeOnce remain vulnerable to zero-day clickjacking vulnerabilities disclosed at DEF CON. Vendors downplayed or ignored the issue. Socket has filed a CVE to ensure these risks are formally tracked. socket.dev/blog/passwor...

If you have a ticket, I’m jelly

I’m one chapter into Machine Learning in Elixir, feeling enthusiastic about the road ahead! The pacing is just right, and the metaphors are apt. This reminds me how Elixir in Action and a bunch of conf talks put me on a great course for unimaginable growth. pragprog.com/titles/smeli... #elixiang

maybe daisyui is okay 🤔

Maybe the most amazing thing about Elixir to me pattern matching on binaries. Parsing a WAV file is almost as simple as writing down the file spec verbatim - look at this! #ElixirLang

Interesting: whenever I read an "I've replaced N SaaS services with AI, in a day, saving $$$ per year, SaaS is dead" post, both are true: 1. The SaaS "replaced" is not named 2. The "AI replacing it" is not shown (no code, no specifics, no nothing) Be careful what you believe

hot take: only use optional syntax (`def my_fn(), do: ...`) when the code fits on one line. hexdocs.pm/elixir/optio... #ElixirLang

Cheers! Get that feather in your cap!

Congrats @zachdaniel.dev & @sevensea.cat !

I wrote a new article exploring how set-theoretic types (the foundation of Elixir's type system) could address how many statically typed languages do not allow libraries to evolve their data definitions in a backwards compatible manner: dashbit.co/blog/data-ev... - be warned, it is a long one.

The Elixir shirts on pre-order is up til March. Make sure you get in there. It supports my wife's continuous efforts to enable my open source work. But mostly it's fun. I've ordered stickers so expect an Elixir sticker with every Elixir shirt ✨ https://oswag.org/b/elixir-shirt-preorder #elixirlang

Good thread!
