One of the best things about @elixirlang is that when you come upon a package and see the last update was 3 years ago, you learn to think "done", instead of "abandoned".

Hey @elixirlang package maintainers! Reminder: `ex_doc` improves all the time, in functionality, accessibility, and UX. *BUT* your package only gets them if you update ex_doc and publish again. You can use `mix hex.publish docs` to publish only new docs, no new version required!

Great lesson to learn, especially as you move up in your career: disagreement is not an insult. Insults are insults. It happens to me all the time, someone says "I don't think X is right" and I have to remind myself to keep my ego out of it. Not always easy, but always important.

@josevalim Maybe I’m the minority, but I think that the standard library in Elixir is nowhere near too big :) it could quadruple in size and not be too big. If Map.take (for example) was not there, every project would have a variation of it and I’d constantly have to remember where it is.

Notifiers in @AshFramework let you broadcast events from your resources trivially. Resources can be database tables, but also much more. This kind of thing belongs in the app layer. Use the built in pub_sub notifier, or write your own notifier and use it with any resource.

Aliasing modules in Elixir code just makes refactoring harder, unless you're aliasing the full module name. Using aliases like `alias Foo.{Bar, Baz}` is an especially bad form of that. If we had an easily accessible "refactor module name" operation maybe that would change.

UUIDs are great. Plain old "v4" UUIDs. They do one thing and one thing well, uniquely identify a thing. If you want a nicer id to look at, add slugs or short ids. If you want to sort, add timestamps. (there are reasons to use other pkey types on a case by case basis of course).

Everyone has been burned by high level abstractions, and the basic position of @AshFramework is that all of the times you were burned by those abstractions wasn't because application layer abstractions are bad, its just that no one has done it right yet.

Something I never expected to have to learn to this degree when I started with @AshFramework was how to educate, document, and explain. Our first training was practically a six hour lecture, and our original docs was just pages and pages of reference documentation. 👇🏻

Love the @AshFramework callout from @josevalim , but I'd like to make it very clear that Ash is for anything but "highly formulaic applications", nor is it an alternative to Phoenix LiveView 😃 They work great together, and 👇

Don't mind me, just being Harry fucking Potter over here, doing magic with your source code. Got some great stuff coming for igniter thanks to awesome tools from @mitchhanberg and @dorgan_ ! Will tell more about it once I get it polished/released 🥳 #myelixirstatus

Check out ex_doc's new preview feature in @AshFramework 's release candidate docs! Documentation refactor is going very well, we've revised all of our long form docs, and will be adding new guides and revisiting all reference docs (functions, modules, etc.)

algorithm in Elixir? No. Will Elixir always run the show? Yes. Now instead of adding some microservice to do a tiny thing, or opt out of the benefits of the BEAM because I have one difficult to optimize algorithm, I can do things like this:

📢Generators for @elixirphoenix live views from @AshFramework resources are in main of ash_phoenix. You provide an existing resource and it generates a corresponding liveview! The interactive generator reacts to what your resource can do 😎Much more to come on this front soon.🎉

@davydog187 🤷‍♂️ I think it’s an innocent joke that didn’t harm anyone. No need to take ourselves too seriously, IMO.

Today I'm introducing Nodl! 🥳 A brand new, open sourced framework for visual node graphs. It has a core library & a React-library as of now, runs on MobX and leverages the power of RxJS & Zod for computational magic. Feel free to contribute!

Our @AshFramework training at @ElixirConfEU this year was a hit! We've dialed it in, and we're doing it again at @GigCityElixir 🤩 Its engaging, interactive and most of the class is spent getting your hands dirty 🚀. Get your tickets, time is almost up!

Nothing like a few days of debugging code you thought was pretty solid to seriously deflate your ego.

"Let it crash" is often misunderstood. It doesn't mean "let the app crash". It means "design your applications using the actor pattern in such a way that each actor can crash at any point and restart to pick up where it left off". *Then* you can "let it crash".
