Let's be clear a what's happening here: the "censorship" and "bias" narrative is being extended to Wikipedia bc the far right knows that getting bullshit into LLMs is how to shape reality as "answer engines" replace search engines. Wikipedia is core to that fight so the grievance blitz is here.

Just submitted my @elixirconfeu.bsky.social talk proposal. It's about why should any business bet on #PhoenixLiveView, from the perspective of user experience and the economics of product development. Good timing in light of the 1.0 release! happy this is my first post 😁 #ElixirLang
