Can recommend Odin[0] if you want to play with Raylib. Great for prototyping, although I'm not sure if it will last further on in development. Still have to figure that one out. [0…

You use UTC which doesn't adjust daylight savings.

I was just referring to how pipes make these kinds of chained function calls more readable. But on your point, I think using Date.now() is perfectly ok.

In Elixir this would be written as: db.getUsers() |> getExpiredUsers(Date.now()) |> generateExpiryEmails() |> email.bulkSend() I think Elixir hits the nail on the head when it come…

That's a really cool concept, I'd love to see more art like this that uses modern technology. Do you have a demo available somewhere to see what the effect would look like? This is…

Something like https://github.com/mrdotb/live_react might be what you're looking for.

https://backpex.live/ is a pretty good Phoenix Admin. Django's admin is still unmatched though.

Does this allow external programs/servers to interact with a workbook (xlsx file)? Or is this just to run more complex calculations inside cell(s)? There's UNO and there's also ope…

Memory is actually shared in Elixir until it's required to create new memory because of a change. So even if you have a big dictionary and something changes, part of the dictionary…

I'm generally very pro EU, but this anti-encryption stuff they try to pull these last couple of years needs to stop. If it's proven that Pavel Durov is facilitating bad actors with…

Customer validation is also super easy to get. The easiest way I've found is to include a simple Google Form in the product. It's super rewarding to get feedback from users. Ask si…

You can still use LiveView/Phoenix/Elixir, but have your game logic be in Gleam. I haven't used it though so I could be wrong here. A little bit more about it here: https://katafra…

That's what I did with: https://territoriez.io/ It's a clone of https://generals.io/ It's built with LiveSvelte. It doesn't need any predictive features as it's basically a board g…
