fwiw, Bunny are the people that announced S3 compatibility for their object storage in Q2 2022 [1]

We can’t wait to have this available as a preview later in Q2 and truly make global storage a breeze, so keep an eye out!

then apologised for missing that in September 2023 [2]

We initially announced that we were working on S3 support for Bunny Storage all the way back in 2022. Today, as 2023 is slowly coming to an end, many of our customers continue to follow our blog, hoping for good news about the release.

changing the roadmap to early 2024 [2]

But we are working aggressively toward shipping S3 compatibility in early 2024.

That same post also has the beautiful "At bunny.net, we value transparency." quote. It's early 2026, and they're literally ignoring my support requests asking about what the roadmap is looking like for this now.

So, do not trust their product or leadership at all.

I agree that this decision is insane and the whole Optimus/xAI bullshit is tiring, especially with the shareholders actually voting against the xAI investment, but you should try today's FSD. It's genuinely good and shouldn't be discarded wholesale because the guy sucks.

Yeah I strongly emphasise with them getting their money - the only problem with headless components being behind a paid license is that you cannot build a design system on top of them and open source it.

ExDoc is arguably one of the nicest documentation systems out there, and Erlang moving to it means two things: 1. The Erlang devs do not need to implement and maintain their own anymore. 2. ExDoc will improve faster since people previously working on Erlang’s documentation system shift to it.

It’s really a win for both, and I love it.

Because Boeing didn’t have the same issue Airbus did. The latches on A320 family cowlings were kinda hidden from view, which made them less likely to be seen during the pilot’s walk around before departure. The EASA (and then subsequently the FAA) issued an airworthiness directive [1] that required the visibility to be resolved. For this case, it’s simply both the mechanic forgetting to latch it properly _and_ the pilot missing that fact during the walk around. Either way, it’s not really a safety critical incident, just rather embarrassing. [1] https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2017/06/29/2017-13...

If you use MySQL, Planetscale’s branching is really amazing. Not using them, but wish I could for that. Gives you a complete diff of what you’re doing, and can also pre-plan migrations and only apply them when you need with their gating.

Reliability and support. Having even “the entire node went down” tickets get an auto-response to “please go fuck off into the community forum” is insane. What is the community forum gonna do about your reliability issues? I can get a 4€/mo server at Hetzner and have actual people in the datacenter respond to my technical inquiries within minutes.

This post is missing one huge point: its tooling is bad. Like, real bad. The language server will regularly crash, does not support code actions _at all_, messes up formatting regularly by ignoring the configuration. Then credo, the popular linter, will tell you that your imports are not alphabetically ordered but there’s no fix mode, meaning you’ll go back to order them yourself. I love the language, am using it during my day job right now, and have published multiple libraries, but the development experience can be infuriating.

Allow me to disagree. Finding good engineers that are knowledgeable with Elixir has been difficult to the point that we’ve hired people that never professionally used the language to senior positions. That’s not a problem on its own, since the language is mostly easy to learn, but there definitely is no abundance.
