Yeah, just (learn how to) use lists and you'll be fine.

Of course if your goal is to re-implement sorting algorithms that were designed for mutable memory, you will be disappointed.

This isn't a deal-breaker. If you want a platform language, use that. But for web, you'd be hard-pressed to find something better suited than Elixir.

I wonder how much the one-time costs were for this project, compared to the cost of the batteries themselves:

- land acquisition

- earthworks

- civil construction

- grid hookup

I interviewed Daniel Cazzulino, now well known for his new library SponsorLink. He landed in hot water with some after adding SponsorLink to his .NET library Moq.

Is this a tacit admission that MRSK has failed?

If you're an outlier then I am also an outlier.

To my great annoyance, the text version of many emails is broken, I see unfilled template variables all over the place.

Yes, it does boil down to the language runtime.

But that doesn't change the fact that they don't reproduce half of what LiveView can do.

They didn't have to call themselves "LiveView for Ruby!"

I meant it more as a PSA: if you've tried any of these other projects, you still owe it to yourself to give LiveView a try!

I'm glad someone has written about this. I actually wanted to write this very blog post, and even made a crappier version of this flow chart.

Why? Because people think they know what LiveView is, but they don't, because the pretenders out there (LiveWire, StimulusReflex and all the rest) are poor imitations.

Don't sleep on LiveView.

I interviewed Joris Schellekens on his journey with Borb, including how he got from 500 to 2000+ stars on GitHub seemingly overnight, and what his plans are for getting to financial sustainability.
