Your semicolon would be more effective as a comma followed by "but". HTH

Satisfied former Oban user here. Oban is engineered. Your use-case may be petty, though, like your comment.

Like nested <table>s and 1x1 transparent spacer GIFs?

Pour one out, RIP to a real one.

In the early 00's, I used the CDs for free internet access on vacation. There was a local dialup number ~wherever you were and it was plenty fine for email and browsing the web of the time, and as long as you cancelled within a month, it didn't cost a cent.

Best of luck on your journey! I made the transition from Friendster to MySpace when a bunch of my top 10 Friendster friends were dead.

Anyhoo, this will be a tough climb for you. Ello captured a lot of what you are going for, at least for users who were willing to part with Google+. Vine still rules for short-form video, Dodgeball still wins for mobile-first, there's Meerkat and Justin.TV for streaming, SixDegrees is still at it, and (let's be honest) most of us are still on AIM. I hear good things about Path too, they have an inspiring CEO and a unique product. Niches are the future; there's even a startup trying to help Harvard nerds get laid. I wish you the best!

Zildjian cymbals are not any more prone to breaking than other manufacturers'. Whether they sound good to you is another story. :) It's hard to make that judgment about a product line so big and varied anyway.

These days I'm playing Sabians, mostly AAX. Not out of brand loyalty, just cause they all sound pretty good for what I do (loud, fast rock). But I've had a handful of Zildjians that I really enjoyed (wish I still had the 24" A Ping Ride that I broke in high school), some Paistes, a Meinl here, a Byzance there...

Oh yeah, FWIW a "built-in" function or macro just means it's a part of the Kernel module, which is automatically required+imported in Elixir modules. So it's not orphaned, it's just in the one special module that gets brought in by default.
