Seattle is about to get screwed. King County Council is proposing to increase our sales tax and send it to wealthy suburbs that don’t want to pay for their own road building. It will soak Seattle for $3 million a year, in perpetuity, to maintain roads in Medina and Bellevue. Ask for a fair deal 👇🏻

I'll be speaking at ElixirConf US 2026! Talk is "It's just a matter of time... zones" If you have preferred practices for dealing with time zones in your apps/database I'd love to hear them. #ElixirLang

Speedrun xkcd.com/3246/
Comic. [Person 1 sitting at desk typing on laptop while Person 2 with shoulder-length hair stands behind.] PERSON 1: Aw man, speedrun.com removed my world record just because I listened to lateralus and ænima to get in the flow. PERSON 2: Oh, a copyright thing? PERSON 1: No, they don’t allow tool-assisted speedruns.

France passed a law requiring solar panels on every parking lot with more than 80 spaces. Equals 10 nuclear reactors Reduces heat island, shades cars The US -- 800 million parking spaces. Most of them are uncovered asphalt sitting in direct sunlight. Why aren't we doing this?

A fact that sounds like bullshit but is actually true: There is more square footage of parking *per car* in the US than there is square footage of housing *per person.*

obsessed with this photo of cows watching the northern lights. it's the scene in a muppet movie that's so surprisingly touching you start to cry (photographer: @ChrisReichert3 on twitter)
Bright red, white and pale green northern lights fill a night sky. The black silhouettes of three cows look up at them

Hey bksy, I’m on the look out for my next project, I’m an experienced Elixir dev (> 8 years commercially, and > 10 years of Ruby before that + I'm still the maintainer of RSpec), very familiar with Phoenix and LiveView, and have enough CSS / JS knowledge to approach projects from a full stack angle.

I'm thinking the default value of `opts` for `start_supervised` should be `[restart: :temporary]` #ElixirLang

I'll be speaking at ElixirConf US 2025! Talk is titled "Writing Your Own Req Plugin," hopefully it's pretty clear what I'll be talking about. In retrospect, I kinda wish I titled it "Get Req'd: ..."
