Probably something important to note as well: it’s compatible with both gitlab CI workflows and GitHub workflows, so you don’t need to write new workflows; they’ll just work. It also has a gitlab-compatible api (the rest v4 api specifically). So things that work with gitlab’s api should also work

Some features worth note: an optional bring-your-own-key fix with AI for issues, as well as PR review with AI. In-browser code editor. Automated backups that either get saved to the server or an S3-compatible host. For hosted apps, it has a shell into the container, db query editor & in-browser logs

If any of you are sick of #GitHub and want to try self-hosting something new, I built a git forge in #Elixir / Phoenix LiveView that’s both a git forge, and optionally a PaaS for the code it’s hosting. I’ve been using and enjoying it, so I guess it’s time to share. gitblixt.com/gitblixt/git...

A GitLab-compatible, self-hosted Git forge built in Elixir/Phoenix. One command to install.

It’s true. #Elixir And Phoenix LiveView on top of Erlang basically makes you unstoppable. I rebuilt Gitlab with Elixir and Phoenix, And integrated PaaS so I could run the code I was hosting, and it’s using like half the resources that Gitlab requires

Photoshop DOES run on Linux 🙂

Update to this: Windows is gone, WSL and VMs do not compare to running Linux natively. Games work great on Linux, other than the one I have that requires kernel-level anti cheat, but I haven’t booted into windows in like 6+ months

Wait, what happened with coderabbit? We use it in our org, it’s a great tool 👌

Followed that up be rewriting the #PHP WHOIS server in #Elixir in another afternoon because the PHP one randomly stopped working, and of course - its faster and works better. Elixir FTW 🙌

That moment when.. it took a third party company 1 month to get an RDAP server working, it was in #Java, and by “working” I mean it sometimes responded maybe.. and you rewrite it in #Elixir in an afternoon, it’s faster and works great 😂😅

All you have to do is switch out your AWS access key, secret and bucket from AWS to R2 and it just works with ExAws 👌 you can also just feed ExAws the R2 config and interact with both simultaneously

Has everyone else moved off AWS S3 / Cloudfront? We recently started using #Cloudflare R2 and it’s 🔥 we were spending about $4-4.5k/mo just on S3 and Cloudfront. On Cloudflare R2 that’s been reduced to $550/mo 🤯 and it’s insanely easy to implement in #Elixir

I don’t see anything on AWS’ status page?

That’s better than what happened to my windows laptop when I dropped it 😅 this was a couple months ago

Tim Hansen @timhansen.io · 29/04/2025
Yes, this exactly

Tim Hansen @timhansen.io · 29/04/2025
Yeah, in a LiveComponent. I was more thinking of the scenario.. Process.send_after(self(), :foo, 0)

Tim Hansen @timhansen.io · 29/04/2025
It would be nice if self() inside of a child component was actually that component, and not the parent

Tim Hansen @timhansen.io · 14/02/2025
Is there a source for this somewhere?

@pfrazee.com any chance we could get reactions in DMs? I love to throw a quick 😂 on something friends share

ghostty.org is out. One of the most interesting projects recently and if you are TUI person, then it is really worth checking out. I have been using it for some time now and it is really nice.

🚨Soon, `mix igniter.install` will work even in projects that don't have igniter as a dep! As long as you have installed the archive, it will install the requested package and add igniter as a dev dependency 😎 This is just a small taste of what's to come, big things brewing for #ElixirLang 😉

I’m proud of how my #RubyConf talk came out - I put loads of work into trying to touch on every aspect of Ruby concurrency in ~25 minutes, and make it as accessible as possible. I think it's a great guide to the Ruby concurrency landscape. youtu.be/rewiLd2w0kE?...

Understandable. I do some gaming, so it’s less work for me to use Windows + I still get the benefits of Ubuntu for development

Tim Hansen @timhansen.io · 01/12/2024
Because WSL and VMware exist, although, Broadcom has basically killed VMware. But! My Ubuntu VMs still work (for now)
