This is exciting! I've been meaning to host some things on FreeBSD. Coming from a Linux background, the question of how to ship and run my applications on there becomes quite a bit…

I recently started a new job working on a Elixir codebase. While it took me a while to understand the architecture and conventions (just like with any language, I guess), dealing w…

Is it possible to share more details about your particular setup? I believe you, but this doesn't sound right. I've used the plugin on all three major operating systems in a wide v…

Apparently an incident took place in 1831 where a bridge collapsed under soldiers marching, but the Wikipedia article [1] notes that "The conclusion of the investigation was that t…

This is exciting! Really excited about the collaborative nature of the Livebooks, as well as the version control -enabling .livemd format. Are there any specific collaborative feat…

My hunch echoes that of other commenters here. That is, it seems like many core libraries have been quite steady and "complete" for a while now, and many people are just using them…

I'm really excited about this project. Seeing Elixir inch this much closer to being a viable option for machine learning and related fields is great. In case someone here wants to …

This topic of success and what contributes to it always makes me think back to this great video by Veritasium (aka. Derek Muller) titled "Is success luck or hard work?" [1]. While …

I've dabbled in Elixir for quite a lot over the past few years, and I have to agree with the general trail of thought you're showing. If I have a question about Elixir, I don't eve…

One major thing would probably be OTP, which would be very difficult to implement as-is on top of Go. A recent comment thread [1] over at Lobste.rs explored this in more depth. Saš…

To reiterate what others here already said, success really isn't anything "universally great" to aim for. There's probably no real way to do that either, since there isn't even any…

You make a good point, and this is one of the reasons why I really like the Phoenix web framework (of the Elixir ecosystem). It firmly guides you towards building applications wher…

Are there any specific libraries or tools written in PHP that you use in your day-to-day life? Perhaps having a look into their state could yield some interesting opportunities for…

Thank you for the tool and the details you've shared! Is there any particular reason you opted to run your own instances of Lighthouse rather than use the PageSpeed Insights API pr…

I watched the ElixirConf 2019 keynote [1] as soon as it came up. While I was left excited about Lumen in general, I wasn't entirely sure what kinds of things Lumen would be most us…

Thank you for the write-up! I've been looking for an excuse to dig deeper into Scenic, and the allure of combining that with eInk makes it sound even more fun. Ordering an Inky rig…

Earlier HN discussion from 2017 on the same post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14748028

Being able to say I’ve overcome my nearly 15 years of depression. I did some pretty neat things in and out of work too, but none of them can really compare to finally feeling happy…

Elixir. The ecosystem has been steadily growing (and, more importantly, becoming more robust and mature) throughout 2018 with continuously improved tooling, libraries and framework…

Thank you for the write-up! When starting The Outline, did you investigate other languages for building the system, or were you set on Elixir from the start? What were these other …

In case you haven't heard yet, there's ongoing work [1] from Paul Schoenfelder for just that! Dockyard (employer of Chris McCord, father of the Phoenix framework) hired him some ti…

I might've misunderstood what you referred to in this particular case, but you generally don't need to even have Erlang installed on the target machine to ship Elixir (and/or Erlan…

You mention that the state management is far from ideal. How did you choose to manage state in this project (or is there a GitHub repo to have a look at)?

Excellent recommendation. For the people who are considering getting this book, I would like to point out that a 2nd edition of the book is also available in the Manning Early Acce…
