I don't think CRDTs are needed and they come with some significant downsides. Bart's plan has the right idea using server reconciliation.

It can handle file uploads. What issue are you running into?

Hologram is a joy to work with. Local first support will take it to the next level. Bart is cooking.

Haha I genuinely couldn't tell. I liked it which made me think that it was actually created by a human but had me a bit concerned that my detector is losing calibration.

Is this Gen AI or did you write it?

If we're not speculating, what are we even doing here?

Interesting, I think it's gotten worse over time. Even basics like what the temperature will be in a few days. It's consistently ~5+ degrees off on the low side.

Feels ironic now that Warren is himself an oil prospector with his Occidental stake.

You can take a look at JS commands and hooks. Ultimately I came to the determination that while LiveView is cool, I think I want the opposite. I’m hoping Hologram will be the answer.

Looks interesting. How do you make sure that agents that need to collaborate on the solution actually collaborate if they’re working in parallel?

Hologram looks really good. Excited to build offline-capable fullstack Elixir apps with it.

New comment by jamauro in "Why Elixir? Common misconceptions"

jamauro — Wed, 23 Jul 2025 17:13:30 +0000

Generally I find static typing to be overrated, even more so with elixir due to pattern matching and immutability. I think elixir’s set-theoretic types will be a nice addition and will provide some compile-time safety checks without needing to explicitly define types for everything. It remains to be seen how far they’ll take this approach.

Yeah it’d be nice if they had a mix task to include your js frontend of choice and it “just worked”. Many have used inertia with success. I’m taking a different approach and pairing svelte with Phoenix channels.
