OTP has plenty powerful tools to build complex things, but complex things remain still incredibly COMPLEX things, even with great tools. Complexity permeates and persists. This particular example of baroque engineering is from chapter 8 of the Elixir Patterns book. #ElixirLang

The ElbowArrow algorithm in @excalidraw.com is so so so finicky. You can draw the arrow between two boxes, and then all of the sudden the Arrow just decides that it MUST attach to a different point on the box, or to an all together different element in the drawing. Sometimes my only option is...

This is a diagram of an example from the Elixir Patterns book (web hooks, chapter 7). It is probably no more than 100 lines of code, but it still packs a surprising amount of complexity. #ElixirLang

This 2025 board game looks very interesting to me. Engine Building AND Engine Loosing? Also the theme. Amazing. First FOMO of the year. Also, rule book is only 12 pages. boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/42... www.riograndegames.com/games/moon-c...

Hi @hugobarauna.com @akoutmos.bsky.social, are there plans to provide a more granular TOC in the Elixir Patterns book? Currently the epub version 1.0 is only listing the main chapters on my Kindle cheers and thanks for an excellent book

Played ER Nightreign. Even with randoms it was a loads of fun, will get the game when it comes out. But what would make this phenomenal for me would be if FS decided to remove the rain for solo sessions. It would still be hard, a souls game with game reset on first death. #EldenRing #Nightreign

Whenever I read about Agents, the person writing tells me that I probably don't want to use Agents but should just use a GenServer instead. Agents keep state but are limited in that they cannot accept messages (no handle_info). #ElixirLang

The first slot for Elden Ring Nightreign network test has started, and so far I have not been able to try the game because matchmaking fails, the connection to the server is lost, and I get kicked out of the game. Fun times. #eldenring #nightreign

I am learning Elixir/OTP/Phoenix/Ecto/etc. To better understand GenServers, I've appropriated @sasajuric.bsky.social 's diagram from Elixir in Action and added some details. And now I am reading @hugobarauna.com 's Elixir Patterns, and adding more. GenServers have a lot to them. #ElixirLang
