Elixir in Action is a great way way to learn the core language, and it's pretty up-to-date with its latest edition. Elixir as a language has been declared feature-complete, so it doesn't change that much anyway (the major libraries are a different story).

If you wanted a book to walk you through LiveView after that, I can recommend Programming Phoenix LiveView. The book is currently in "beta", with the final version expected in a month, so it's very up-to-date. We have a book club at work and just finished it this past week. It does a good job of showing how to make live-updating CRUD pages along with building a pentominoes puzzle game that's rendered with SVG. You build up the project chapter-to-chapter and have a pretty cool little app at the end.

As long as you don't need offline support, then a monolith webapp seems like a perfect use for LiveView, especially for a solo dev!

Are you wanting a general overview of Elixir and Phoenix, or do you want to jump into the most modern part of Phoenix, LiveView? I’m an Elixir developer, so I could help direct you to materials and answer questions if you’d like.

Instead of saying to yourself “never again”, how about “never again with someone who will betray my vulnerability”? Because what happened to you sounds really horrible, but there are people out there who will be with you in your struggles and nurture and build you up in your vulnerable moments.

As a man someone who also struggles with vulnerability, there are ways to test the waters in a relationship (family, friend, partner, etc) when it comes to vulnerability so that you won’t be hurt like that again. I actually watched this video recently and found it really helpful: https://youtu.be/WyKFHd7cSaU

Of course, none of this is easy, but it can be life-changing to open up to someone and feel cared for. I’m glad you’re doing better, and I wish you the best.

We already had a 2nd summer of love! In the UK though, not the US.

So you’re saying there’s a chance?

That’s the thing with pizza. By most standards, that’s shit pizza. On the other hand, it’s hard to fuck up bread, sauce, cheese, and some veggies. I would absolutely eat and enjoy that if it were put in front me.

Moths can have a little bit of birds’ tears.

A true Eef Freef.

As an outsider to the scientific community, I wanted to know more about whatever the heck Parafilm is. I’ve definitely been educated 😆

Or a cat that discovered that toilet water is fun to play with 😒

Heeell yes! I used to blast Italics all the time. It’s from that wonderful music era of my life from 2014-2016 where I exclusively found music on SoundCloud.
