Elixir Blog Posts

I started playing with Elixir’s Explorer library, trying to implement some code from python for time-series ML.
I wrote about the whole process, with code and benchmarks, if anyone is interested:

Preparing Financial Time Series for ML in Elixir: Going FAST with Explorer & a C NIF
ML in Elixir is getting more and more popular every day!
Working with Time Series in Elixir might sound like the best idea but turns out it is much faster and easier than you think! And together with NIFs we can really optimize performance. Together with Elixir’s beautiful syntax we can do A LOT and very fast. This is only the beginning!

I wrote a short blog post of creating static site in elixir and load phoenix component inside md files, I hope it is useful

I recently started blogging and just wrote my first blog post about Elixir!

In this post, I go through a common occurrence in large codebases: seemingly unrelated files being recompiled every time you change a module. It contains a deep dive on why this happens, how to fix and how to permanently prevent such long (re)compilation chains from showing up again.

The iteration time between making changes and observing changes should be as fast as possible. The slower it is, the more it impacts your productivity. If you suffer from long recompilation chains, I highly suggest you take the time to read the post!
