"the maintainer is a legitimate communist. i will not be supporting this language" - some yt guy, 2024 I made @gleam.run and I do gymnastics (badly) they/them or he/him. end fossil fuels. genocide is bad. ride a bike.

I am so confused by all the reviews for Odyssey, from both friends and critics; I thought it was pants! Went home and watched 1987's Predator immediately afterwards. Hot damn, it is such well made film. Got to show it to someone for the first time too!

I attempted a glide kip for the first time today, and with a little help from coach I got really close! I think I can get it soon!? I am super excited.

So how's everyone finding Gleam v1.18.0-rc1? It has a full rewrite of the Erlang code generator, so feedback from testing is super useful!

are there any gleam sympthatic orgs in london that might donate some space for a meetup next month 👀 what if we made it atproto flavoured 👁️👄👁️

So everyone should go star the compiler so it gets first place, but then It would be really cool if one of my projects could be 4th to make it entirely Gleam 🥹👉👈 I made the default Gleam array implementation! tangled.org/becca.monste... and a really cool task pool too! tangled.org/becca.monste...

becca.monster/iv

a fast, general-purpose, persistent array structure for Gleam.

You should all star this, mostly because I think it would be funny if the trending section was entirely Gleam projects

BTW if anyone is interested in ATProto and has been eyeing up Gleam for a while but didn't know how to get started, there's a lot of Gleam-ATProto chat happening at the moment in the Gleam discord, as well as many ATProto projects being made in Gleam. Join in! discord.gg/Fm8Pwmy

Just read overreacted.io/a-social-fil... by @danabra.mov, and I finally understand what ATProto is. Very cool stuff, would definitely recommend reading. Unfortunately this is going to add significantly to my list of ongoing side projects and things to learn more about.

I taught some folks calisthenics for the first time this weekend, it was so much fun! Whether code or sport or anything else, teaching is just so interesting and so rewarding.

GitHub's code review UI performs so badly with large patches that it's hindering my productivity. Can anyone recommend a good GitHub PR review tool that supports leaving comments on the PR? 🙏
