Thinking Elixir 307 - Trust Nothing, Sort Everything

Episode 307 of Thinking Elixir. Mark shares a bittersweet housekeeping update. The Thinking Elixir Podcast is winding down, with the final episode airing June 23rd, 2026, closing the book on over six years of weekly shows. On the news front, Ecto 3.14 lands with long-awaited UUIDv7 support (time-sortable UUIDs for better index performance) along with a host of other improvements, Oban Pro adds a “human approval” workflow step that lets jobs pause mid-execution and resume on a signal without holding a database connection open, Hologram v0.9 arrives with a new Realtime feature enabling pure-Elixir WebSocket push from server to browser, Dashbit shares a behind-the-scenes look at how they designed Git integration in Tidewave Web across three developer personas, and the NSA drops new Zero Trust Implementation Guidelines that pair nicely with the Erlang Ecosystem Foundation’s own security hardening document, and more!

Thanks for the many years of work behind this great show — one of my favorite weekly podcasts to listen to. From the early days when I was first discovering Elixir to today, I always looked forward to each new episode and what I would learn. Particularly appreciate the recent up-tick in news and awareness around privacy and zero-trust. Hooray! :blush: :heart:
