For what it’s worth, allowing agents to just run in the background provides me with more time to play with my child than I had in the past. Some stuff deserves to be automated, isn’t that the purpose of code in the first place?

But overall premise is on point, people are being pretty goofy about this tech; it’s just another tool - nothing to go into psychosis over, which seems to be happening in some cases, unfortunately. Touching some grass certainly helps.

You’re getting down voted, but it would really be nice if they rebuilt the thing in Rust or something like that. I’m just tired of these enormous JavaScript bundles pretending to be desktop apps. Especially when we need to squeeze as much juice as possible out of our machines.

With all the issues in the US and generally wrong direction, I can’t remember them ever arresting people for mean tweets in the way that Germany and the UK have. They all seem to be running full speed towards a surveillance state.

What’s the closest extension or tooling that provides functionality similar to ClickHouse? I’m looking for something like that before making the full jump and adding another dependency.

Wild, the AI support and bots suck so bad, I've literally lost sales due to them. No matter how much support docs and history you feed them with for context, they just don't cut it. People would rather wait for a real person than go in loops with a wrong/bad support answer...

It's possible but most default to vercel and it's required if you want the fancy stuff (hybrid). And you made my point, Kubernetes is overkill as well.

Regarding auth, in phoenix it's literally as simple as "mix phx.gen.auth Accounts User users" and boom, your users live right in your database for free.

Why not just build mobile apps in their native language (Swift etc)? Anyways, end users absolutely notice and care - cross platform mobile apps are all hot garbage without exception.

LiveView is such a breath of fresh air, especially over the vibe coded NextJS rats nests that have become the norm (that need specialized hosting, are dog slow and require a ton of proprietary paid services bolted on like caching, background workers and even auth which Elixir and Phoenix provide out of the box).
