Do you know what % of users use GMail vs Outlook? I am genuinely curious as I am also targeting GMail users to start with based on a hunch.

I wish he built a "Edit a form in a slideover". Modals are already part of the core_components and the Phoenix team has done a good job of covering edge cases around CSS transition…

Just came off your Elixir talk photos on Twitter to find this on HN. Please share your ElixirConf talk recording. Producing a nice emoji/avatar for an AI agent seems like a cool id…

I got ChatGPT to write a python script to scrape entries in this post and output it as a csv file. Download it here https://github.com/subbu/ask-hn-candidate-list-chatgpt/blob/... …

Your youtube playlist combined with NanoGPT and your Lex Fridman podcast is like having a university level degree with a free internship guidance. Thank you!

I am building a property management software (PMS). It's a specialized form of CRM. I have dumped MVC entirely in favor of LiveView. handle_event and handle_info are a better progr…

I implemented this feature in a shared flat context. The problem gets simplified as the users are all part of a group already and even the settlement happens without exchanging any…
