ux friends, does anyone have any resources (papers, studies, blog posts, talks, ...) exploring canvas interfaces, node base uis, that kind of thing... there's a wealth for visual programming but im struggling to find the same interest in other kinds of canvas apps/interfaces.

Modern remotes modulate the infrared signal at around 40 khz because the first optical remotes used receiver circuitry that was adapted from the acoustic receivers. So in a sense, they are still with us.

I just realized I hadn’t shared this one yet, but I wrote about how the team I’m on restructured its workflows to lean into the code review bottleneck rather than trying to eliminate it when code generation took over, and what that ended up doing: www.honeycomb.io/blog/embraci...

How I Came to Embrace the Code Review Bottleneck

Faced with an endless stream of AI-generated code reviews, our team made the counterintuitive choice to lean into the bottleneck rather than reduce it.

TIL `Phoenix.PubSub.subscribe` is not idempotent; if your process calls it twice for a given topic, you'll get two notifications for each message posted to it. Or... if you call it 4,000 times, once on each update to your LiveComponent, you'll get 4,000 messages. Ask me how I know. 🫠 #ElixirLang
