You can also peek inside objects and check for types and values of nested properties. In other languages you’d need to create composite types or even duplicate or extend types. In Elixir, all that is for free. I see that as much more powerful than types.
I just started learning Elixir recently and I'm honestly loving it. Pattern matching is awesome and how it approaches concurrency and async work was so easy to wrap my head around. Pragmatic Studios has a great tutorial.
I've had great success using AI to translate my thoughts into actual words on a page (not just for software development, but also amateur writing). Bridging the vocabulary gap.
Your situation is different from the one in the article. In your brother's case, it was end stage and so forgoing treatment to improve QoL makes total sense. In the article the sister actually had a high chance of survival (so opposite of end stage) but still chose not to undergo treatment.
I recall doing a tutorial for Exilir, the Phoenix framework in particular, a few years back and I actually enjoyed using it. Anyone know any good up-to-date tutorials someone could use?
Two local businesses I frequent (one for baked goods and another for coffee beans) use mailing lists for membership and ordering. Only "drawback", if it even is one, is they rely on word-of-mouth because I had no idea they existed until I saw them mentioned in a thread on a local subreddit.
I always found handwriting notes to be more effective at getting my brain to actually remember them compared to typing. When it comes to writing though I'll always pick the keyboard.
Its interesting to think about it this way. Like, this community's "financial opsec" was their isolation from the rest of the world. No one on the outside can attack them if no one can even point out the town on the map. The internet makes that approach impossible.
Yeah, it might even be worst than that. If I were a scammer I would seek out these small-town banks looking for my mark.
And while we're at it, find the business owners of the auto dealerships in any metropolitan area. These families and the ones that own the largest construction contractor companies are the lesser-known millionaires living in our midst that might have large bank accounts.
And who knew small town church coffers might have millions lying around.
The earliest memory I have, that I actually consider a memory and not just a weird dream, is a sensation of feeling very warm and comfortable and then suddenly feeling very cold and upset and wanting to go back to the warm place. I'd like to say this was a memory from when I was born, but I honestly have no clue when this happened as I couldn't see anything. I think the reason this memory stuck with me was just the stark contrast between "this is nice" to "this sucks, put me back".
