As someone who loves experimenting with new technologies, I recently got the Vision Pro (I’m a big fan of VR and the idea of working in mixed reality). What excites me the most is sharing the cool stuff I discover, with my friends and colleagues, like how amazing it is to have a floating 3D […]

I hacked on something quite useful in the last few weeks, off and on. Voice Activity Detection in Elixir with Silero VAD through ONNX. I'll show what I did and try to give an idea of what it is and why it is useful.

What feels like forever ago but what was probably a year and a half I gave a talk about Lively LiveView with Membrane. Video is available for the curious. It was a stunt talk but also a talk about creativity and how Elixir let's me plug things together and try things that feel magical. That feeling has never left me.

One of the Erlang ecosystem's spiciest nerd snipes are hot code updates. Because it can do it. In ways that almost no other runtime can. I use Elixir which builds on Erlang and has the same capabilities.

Recompilation hell: what it feels like Elixir is an amazing language and it’s been a huge privilege being able to work with it for over a decade now (how time flies)!\nI’d like to point out an issue that, if overlooked, can severely impact productivity in your team. Yes, I’m talking about module (re)compilation.\nYou make a few changes to a single file in your codebase and hit recompile. Boom: Compiling 93 files (.ex). Then you make another change and boom: Compiling 103 files (.ex).\n

When directly compared with OpenAI's 8K model text-embedding-ada-002, the jina-embeddings-v2 stand out in terms of quality. Their long context length is a game changer. Don't let a missing model implementation stop you from realizing your awesome AI project in Elixir. Instead, follow three steps to convert a Python model to Elixir.

In Elixir, once you have clustering set up, it's ridiculously easy to run some code on another node in your cluster: Node.spawn(:"another_beam_instance@10.0.1.2", fn - # This runs on a different node send(self(), node()) end) receive do response - IO.puts "Got response:

Hey Elixir community! 👋 Inspired by Vic Vijayakumar's tweet , I've started compiling a comprehensive guide for what a modern Elixir/Phoenix…

I love parsing! I really do. There's something very satisfying about converting input into usable data structures that help me accomplish some task. Parsing is important. How well we construct those data structures and the quality of the structures we choose can massively impact the work that comes after. We should probably all be worrying about parsing a little more than we do. The good news is that Elixir is the best language I have ever worked with for doing serious parsing. Let's prove it. Let's pull the data out of a SQLite database file using vanilla Elixir and some tricks from my Scrappy Programmer Livebook series. (You don't need to have read that to follow along with this article. Everyone is welcome.)

Forms are a pivotal component of web applications, and with Tailwind CSS, designers can handcraft custom forms with ease and precision.

Working with Time Series can pose some difficult challenges. The non-stationary nature of the data forces us in many cases to use loops…

In a Phoenix/LiveView application, it's a bit of a challenge to display the current time to the user in the user's time zone but this can be solved with a time zone library and a little JavaScript.

This two-part series explores working with Phoenix in a distributed setup. In part one, we'll look at GenServers.
