    I tried to `brew install ffmpeg` on my wife's older MBP, so of course it needed to fetch, *checks notes*: rust, ruby, and vim (?!)

    I'm thrilled to announce I've joined @flydotio! They'll support my continued work on Phoenix while I help grow their geographic global deployments around Elixir and Phoenix. Imagine turn-key PubSub + LiveView + your greater app running on every continent. This is the future!

    My Phoenix LiveView writeup is out! It details our latest progress and shows off a bunch of demo applications. We show autocomplete in 35 LOC, a complete snake game in 330 LOC, and how our optimizations match hand-written JSON in payload size.
