    I’m on MacOS and erlang.org, elixir-lang.org, and postgresql.org all suggest installation via Homebrew, which is a very popular package manager for MacOS.

  • Meet entr, the standalone file watcher
    4 projects | dev.to | 2 Nov 2023
    As you might have guessed, one of the main use cases for entr is to rerun tests whenever files change. I'm an Elixir engineer, and I use entr to run mix test continuously whenever I save an Elixir file.
  • Building Apps with Tauri and Elixir
    14 projects | dev.to | 19 Oct 2023
    The Elixir programming language is no stranger to desktop applications as the language actually supports building them out of the box. It uses wxWidgets: a C++ library that lets developers create applications for Windows, macOS, Linux and other platforms with a single code base. But wxWidgets has a very complex API, and doesn’t solve issues that usually come with desktop applications around packaging.
  • Show HN: Podsee – AI tool for podcast listeners
    3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 18 Oct 2023
    Hi everyone, I just launched Podsee(https://pods.ee) for podcast listeners, lovers. You can search and listen to podcasts at Podsee. What makes it different is that you can get the AI transcript for an episode.

    It started as a side project after I resigned my job one year ago. As a programmer, I love Elixir (http://elixir-lang.org/) and Phoenix LiveView(https://github.com/phoenixframework/phoenix_live_view), and want to make a product with it. So I build Podsee.

    I'm planning to add more AI features to it, like summarize the episode audio, episode to comics, etc.

    I'd love to invite you all to try out the product and would appreciate hearing your feedback! Thanks!

    Sadly, this isn't true for all languages. I spend most of my days working on and with the Ash project in Elixir. Whilst Lapce has syntax highlighting for Elixir there is no language server plugin available yet. There are at least two plugins in development, but given I can't figure out how to install them in my local editor to test them I can't speak to their quality.

    Also see the definition for `defmacro`, the macro for defining macros, which is defined using... defmacro

  • Meta to release open-source commercial AI model

    Career dev who had the cash and wanted to experiment with anything that can be done concurrently, such as in my language of choice lately, which features high concurrency (https://elixir-lang.org/) or these LLM's, or anything else that can be done in massively parallel fashion (which is, perhaps surprisingly, only a minority of possible computer work, but it still means I can run many apps without much slowdown!)

    I originally had 2 2080ti's to experiment also with virtio/proxmox (you need 1 for the host and 1 for any VM you run). I never got that running successfully at the time, but then Proton got really good (I mainly just wanted to run windows games fast in a VM, but that circumvented that). Later on I upgraded one of them to a 3080ti.

    It's a System76 machine, they make good stuff
