Looks very cool - thanks

I used to take this position, but weirdly enough, the app store version of Jellyfin worked better than the one I had loaded onto a FireTV, so I changed my mind. Might need to revisit that decision.

I jsut had this happen - it was my first visit to the site and probably my second page load. Tried opening the About page and it was completely blank. Thought it was odd & reloaded, which rendered correctly.

Honestly, I love PostgreSQL, but now I have another server or service to run. SQLite is just a file and often, that is enough.

Seriously, there are no limits to his graft. This is commercialisation of insider trading. He is shameless.

Ours is a FoxES or something and the included app is pretty straight forward. You can easily set it to ALWAYS pull from the grid during specific times and it will (along with the solar), charge the battery to capacity during that time.

Pretty much what I am doing exactly, bar the credit. We don't have gas in my area, throw in a pool, kids who love air con, way too many computers and we burn through a lot of power.

With 3 hours of free power, a 15kW inverter and a 42kWh battery, I could almost do away with my solar panels and just survive of free grid power. I do have a 15kW solar panel set up, but I get very little from selling anything back to the grid.

I game on Linux (have so for years) and the only thing I can't play is a few AAA FPS titles. Honestly not much of an issue depending on what games you play.

100% they look incredible.

Quick note to say that the article describing WHY you are different and why it matters was very well written. Congrats on the launch!

What is the process for adding different text? What are the limitations on that process? The demo is very cool by the way.

Am I right in thinking that Elm has lost a lot of momentum? It is barely discussed on HN anymore and I wonder if the releases/news have a lot to do with it. Look at the time between releases:

0.19.2 Faster builds, and the Road to Elm 1.0 Jul 2026

0.19.1 Friendly syntax hints, faster builds Oct 2019

This is such a ridiculous statement. The people who spent their time building up this body of work deserve to be compensated. Take whatever job you do and imagine people confidently stating that you should work for free.

Brilliant. Brutal.

Valve are one of the very few companies that I trust & respect. Of course, that could change ... which is why stores like GoG are so good as well (only sell DRM free games).

Yep, I love that stuff .. just crazy to think how it all came about.

That is way more comprehensible for me at least.

Hey, this is pretty cool and very fast. So there is no database? How do you handle the scraping etc? Do the businesses know you are doing this?

One thought, it might be good to list all of the products together,rather than only being able to view them by each business. Nice job :)

Yeah, that is pretty crazy. I wonder what it smells like? Has to be an enemy specific to that ant species right?

See above "if you're on Elixir, you can skip the separate process entirely and add it directly to your app's supervision tree - it runs inside your own app's process". About as lightweight as you can get.

I believe the term is Beg Bounties and they are constant and annoying.

Porn?

That is just madness. I think it is a good idea for people to periodically try other Operating Systems, but to be responsible for the design of an OS and not use it is just crazy.

Congrats on the launch. Using the Redis protocol was a pretty clever choice. Does it have to run as a stand-alone server?

Maybe, but I think they are handy for people who are trying to understand the language. I'd also congratulate you on writing them with such honesty.

Honestly, I think you're framing this incorrectly. Twitter, Airbnd and Shopify all managed to get massive using Ruby on Rails. Maybe that was part of the reason why? I.e. they were able to move fast and developers were happy.

I don't use Rails, so don't have any skin in the game. But who cares if you have to do a re-write once you get to that size?

There are two possible locations for comparison that I can see:

https://gleam.run/frequently-asked-questions/#Elixir Here’s a non-exhaustive list of differences:

    Elixir is gradually typed, while Gleam is fully statically typed.
    Elixir's type system does not have generics, while Gleam's type system does.
    Elixir has a powerful macro system, Gleam has no metaprogramming features.
    Elixir’s compiler is written in Erlang and Elixir, Gleam’s is written in Rust.
    Gleam has a more traditional C family style syntax.
    Elixir has a namespace for module functions and another for variables, Gleam has one unified namespace (so there’s no special fun.() syntax).
    Gleam standard library is distributed as Hex packages, which makes interoperability with other BEAM languages easier.
    Elixir is a larger language, featuring numerous language features not present in Gleam.
    Elixir has an official test framework with excellent support for concurrency, partitioning, parameterized tests, integrated error reports, and more. Gleam has no official test framework, but there are multiple community-maintained frameworks.
    Both languages compile to Erlang but Elixir compiles to Erlang abstract format, while Gleam compiles to Erlang source. Gleam can also compile to JavaScript.
    Elixir has superior BEAM runtime integration, featuring accurate stack traces and full support for tools such as code coverage, profiling, and more. Gleam’s support is much weaker due to going via Erlang source, resulting in less accurate line numbers with these tools.
    Elixir and Gleam both use Erlang's OTP framework. Both have additional modules for working with OTP, which provide APIs more in the style of each respective language. Both common use Erlang's OTP APIs directly, but Elixir can do so more conveniently and concisely due to having a less-strict type system.
    Elixir currently has superior deployment tooling, including support for OTP releases and OTP umbrella applications.
    Gleam’s editor tooling is superior due to having a more mature official language server, but Elixir has recently announced an official language server project which is in active development.
    Elixir is more mature than Gleam and has a much larger ecosystem.
    Gleam and Elixir compile at similar speeds due to using the Erlang compiler as their compiler backend. Elixir's macros are evaluated at compile time, so a program that uses macros will take longer to compile the larger the amount of work performed in macros. Gleam has no language features that result in slower compilation.

Yes, that is a great talk. He really does an admirable job of exploring all of the reasons why people think that they want a typed language and concludes many (but not all) are not that helpful.

One that is almost universally praised, but which I have been unable to finish.
