Chris McCord just recently released a library trying to solve for this https://github.com/phoenixframework/durable_server

Or incumbents have to win some larger percentage of the vote in order to win over time

Appreciate all the work done by the Elixir team on this. If at some point something makes the type system unfeasible, does it mean it would be unraveled from the compiler or is it safe to say what's been released now is there for good?

Agreed. Gleam is a great one that targets JavaScript and outputs easy to read code

Reminded me of this which is a MIT lecture called “how to speak”

Maybe Haxe is an example of another language like this. I wonder if it applies though to languages that are hosted i.e. Elixir is constrained somewhat by what Ericsson decides to do w/ Erlang

has anyone figured out what their event page means? Supposedly its a hint of what they're announcing. https://frame.work/framework-event

To add onto this, you actually write code when on the BEAM rather than yaml and feels like it takes less lines to accomplish the same things

I only recently discovered minio and started using it for a project. What are you referring to by “last file system-transparent Minio version” for my own awareness?

One reason also is I believe it has something to do with fault tolerance even at a hardware level. A process has its data isolated somewhere in memory, if something happens to that memory, the process will crash next time it runs and starts causing supervisors to start attempting to recover the system

So neat! I've been thinking of something similar to this where content creators would join their content to form channels in the original sense of the word and users would browse much like how they would on a normal TV

We don't need the Erlang message bus to be the only message bus. The Erlang message bus is, frankly, not very good

Genuinely curious why it's not very good. Were you speaking solely from the perspective of non-Erlang processes? And also specifically regarding remote messages rather than local?

I think OP was asking whether they were confusing CR for the Better Business Bureau because moving services does not seem to be something CR would review

I'd love to hear more about this. Do you have any reading material or tutorials that helped you get started?

I'm curious what features this hypothetical modern language would have that would be particular suited for financial institutions. This thought has piqued my interest

This actually reminds me of an idea I once had. Rather than service providers holding onto your data, there could be something equivalent to custodians but instead of having lockboxes for your valuables, it'd be for your data. Service providers would then "borrow" your data from these custodians to provide their services.

This looks sort of like that but marketed from the tech angle using docker as an analogy rather than a custodian. I'll have to take a deeper dive into this!

This reminded me of this video covering this exact topic https://youtu.be/UiS27feX8o0

Very cool! Just a heads up there's a bug with the event control flow example where it requires pressing the "stop pulsing" button the same number of times you've pressed the "start pulsing" button. I figured the behavior should be regardless of how many times I've clicked "start pulsing" the next time I press stop, it should stop.

I don't have much too add, I'm just replying in case Mozilla devs see this. I want this so much as well! I don't mind the VPN though. I pay for it now even though I run mostly Linux

This looks very interesting! I couldn't find any info on pricing on your site, I imagine this wouldn't be a free service :)

Also in the whitepaper, I saw this:

To ensure Magic cannot decrypt the encrypted key for redundancy, we have removed our permission to decrypt with our KMS instances.

I don't know too much about how KMS works so I apologize for my naivete but what's to say you can't give yourself back that permission?

I've been wanting an app like that for awhile now. I started messing around prototyping something like that around planning events with others. I'm excited to see what more of this!!

I'd like to read about how that goes! This is exactly what I want as well. I hear synapse requires a good amount of resources

If you don't mind me asking, how do you do blind tastings? Doesn't someone have to pour the glasses and therefore knows which is which? Also how do you figure out at the end, which was which? I imagine, one person pours, another rearranges, and then the glasses have a labeled underneath

I wish arcades were still a thing. And I don't mean a place with all the old cabinets like Barcade in NYC but a place with new games/experiences that are not easily accessible via a console or gaming pc. VR/AR seems to be a good fit even though you'd have to come up with a way to keep the goggles clean.

I have a huge list of primary sources, will export and paste it here if anyone wants

I'm interested in this. I've been wanting to get this set up but it always feels like rss feeds are hidden from being discovered. Not to mention I haven't found an RSS reader that I particularly like.

the other day I thought of a secondary device (that's not connected to the internet) that would go along with Alexa or whatever mic-connected device that "somehow" scrambles the sounds so that it's just noise to Alexa until you say the keyword, at which point it unscrambles for some given period of time so Alexa can understand.

Is such a device possible?? I don't know, probably not but it would help me feel better about getting one of these devices

I think you're getting downvoted because you made the claim that "Some of those emails are clearly trying to hide something" without providing any references to such emails. Maybe post some links to the emails you're referring to so others not in on the loop can join in

So semi-related to this, I've contemplated about the feasibility of a cryptocurrency/blockchain built specifically for a pseudo-MMO game where instead of a central server, it's actually a network of servers where anyone can host a server. Each server would be a "game world" that falls into a few categories, such as PvE, PvP, and Town, where Town would be a sort of server browser to find PvE/PvP servers.

The blockchain would store users' character data i.e. level, currency, inventory, etc.

It would use a hypothetical form of proof of work where either the previous hash or the nonce would determine what monster and items are available on that server for some given amount of time. Clients would then be required to sign with their private keys a "chain of events" that would have to line up with the server's chain of events somehow.

I wouldn't know how to determine if a client and a server are cheating or not though.

The game developer would imaginably host some of the larger servers and could then sell the cryptocurrency they gain from hosting said servers for some actual fiat as a means to make money.

Clearly this is an incredibly rough idea that I have not actually spent too much time thinking about.

EDIT

an inspiration for this idea was "The World", a fictional game from the dotHack series

Yeah I agree with most of the sentiment but I let it by when you go to the github repo and check out contributor statistics. Pretty much it's just sokra doing everything and he does it in his free time last I heard. I think webpack is missing the support it needs in regards to how much it's actually getting used.

this. I've been looking for something to replace facebook messenger to use with my friends. Whatever it is, it would need mobile push notifications. Currently I'm using tinfoil facebook so not getting push messages causes me to miss long portions of conversations in my group chat and I don't want to just use another service, I'd rather host it
