Is there a manufacturer you prefer over others in the budget segment?

I haven't finished it but I started playing Sable for a bit. There's no attack mechanics at all and it's fun to explore. The art style is also very nice to look at IMO.

This was improved in a recent release. Did you try with the latest version?

We are using Basecamp as a team and have been really happy with it. I think their free tier should work well for a single person and I could see myself using it if I was working solo.

I want to use Elixir more for my side projects but it's honestly really easy to get going with services like Vercel or Netlify and SvelteKit. Also coming from Next.js and SvelteKit, I got kind of used to the file-based routing and it creates some friction for me when trying to use Phoenix.

I want to contribute some sort of guide to the community for people coming from JS metaframeworks, rather than Rails/MVC frameworks, but I feel like I need to use Phoenix more first. I'm just about finished with Sophie and Bruce's book!

If I recall correctly, Saša Jurić mentioned in an interview that he envisions the BEAM being used as an OS in the future, where you can run your database, web server and other services under one VM.

While I don't personally have much use for it (at the moment), I'm curious about how this would look like with Lumen [0] where you can run your whole web stack with a single binary and being internally supervised by the BEAM.

Lumen's development has been slow but I remember seeing a tweet from a team member stating that development is slowly ramping back up (not a criticism in any way, just providing some context).

Also check out the Sawbones podcast about it! https://maximumfun.org/episodes/sawbones/sawbones-man-who-at... It goes a bit more in depth.

I made a purchase with my MIL's credit card on my account. It got blocked because of the name mismatch and they asked for bank statement for proof. The card got stolen in the meantime, my MIL lost the last bank statement for that card and she didn't have access to online banking.

They said they couldn't do anything unless I submitted the bank statement with the CC number. I told them to just delete all the cards from my account but that wasn't an option either.

That was around 5 years ago and I still don't have access to that account and I'm expecting to never be able to get in again.

José Valim (creator of Elixir) will be streaming his solutions on Twitch. Thought that might be interesting for you.

In case anyone is curious about dithering in the context of audio, here[0] is an excellent video on that.

From what I've seen, most Elixir questions are answered on Elixirforum. You might want to try searching there first or even asking yourself. You usually get fast, friendly and helpful responses (which sometimes turn into interesting discussions!).

I've been meaning to build a similar project for my SO. I want is to be able to connect the rotary phone via bluetooth for calls (only calls) and dialing if possible. Has anyone worked with anything similar that can provide some pointers?

I'm guessing the dialer part should be "simple" as I could probably connect an Arduino as if it were a keyboard but can't find much on the audio part.

Would you happen to know if you (the company) hire international candidates?
