For posterity, I am in the “anti-AI” camp.

With the recent deprecation of the official Elixir Google APIs project, I’ve been looking for the next best way to interact with Google APIs from my Elixir application.

I’ve been using coding agents more lately, and I’ve felt the need to document some of the gems they’ve produced.

In the last post, we learned that there are 4096 (2^12) possible musical scales.

After writing the musical scale generator from the previous post, I had an itch to more exhaustively test our solution using a property test.

Recently I’ve revived my long-term passion project, Glorious Voice Leader, with the aim of rebuilding the application using Elixir and Phoenix LiveView.

I’ve played with many techniques for adding and maintaining tsvector columns in PostgresSQL tables used by my Elixir applications.

In a recent Elixir project, I wanted to take a value from my application’s runtime config and insert it into the database.

Trying to track down non-deterministic test failures in my somewhat flakey test suite, I’ve been relying on this bash one-liner: while mix test; do :; done The idea is to run mix test repeatedly until it fails.

I recently ran across this comment on the Elixir forums.

Recently, I found myself tasked with downloading a tarball of a Github repository in Node.js and decompressing it in memory.
