Phoenix.new – The Remote AI Runtime for Phoenix

I’m Chris McCord, the creator of Elixir’s Phoenix framework. For the past several months, I’ve been working on a skunkworks project at Fly.io, and it’s time to show it off. I wanted LLM agents to work just as well with Elixir as they do with Python and JavaScript. Last December, in order to figure out what that was going to take, I started a little weekend project to find out how difficult it would be to build a coding agent in Elixir. A few weeks later, I had it spitting out working Phoenix a

Google just made it way easier to use Chrome extensions on Android — here’s how

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Google is developing a new version of Chrome for Android that supports extensions, and recent builds show significant progress. It’s now possible to install Chrome extensions directly from the Chrome Web Store, and they will persist even after restarting the browser. The feature is still experimental and intended for future Android-powered PCs, but anyone can sideload the APK to try it now. While Google Chrome is by far the most popular browser on And

Fast Rust Builds (2021)

Fast Rust Builds It’s common knowledge that Rust code is slow to compile. But I have a strong gut feeling that most Rust code out there compiles much slower than it could. As an example, one fairly recent post says: With Rust, on the other hand, it takes between 15 and 45 minutes to run a CI pipeline, depending on your project and the power of your CI servers. This doesn’t make sense to me. rust-analyzer CI takes 8 minutes on GitHub actions. It is a fairly large and complex project with 200k

This Retro Gaming Keyboard Hits All the Right Nostalgia Vibes and It's a Great Keyboard

As a child of the '90s few things get my nerd brain tingling like good ol' Super Mario. Even hearing my best friend's Mario-themed phone notifications take me back to a simpler time. So it's no surprise that I completely nerded out when I saw 8BitDo's Retro Mechanical Keyboard decked out in Mario colors. A solid mechanical keyboard with a heavy dose of nostalgia? Count me in. If the Mario theme isn't up your alley, the Retro is available in a few different versions, each pulling something from

I changed 6 settings on my Roku TV to instantly improve the performance

Maria Diaz/ZDNET Few things ruin the joy of watching a good show more than suddenly seeing that rotating asterisk symbol or swirly icon that tells you your TV is buffering. Or maybe it's stuttering, or altogether freezing. If this is happening on your Roku TV, don't give up on it just yet. Also: How to disable ACR on your TV (and why doing so makes such a big difference) Like phones and computers, Rokus have caches that accumulate temporary data, which inevitably slows them down over time.

Munich from a Hamburger's perspective

Over the long weekend, thanks to Whit Monday being a public holiday in Germany, I decided to visit a friend who lives in Munich.

Archaeologists Unearth Viking-Era Burial With Incredibly Rare Casket

Archaeologists from Denmark’s Moesgaard Museum have uncovered 30 Viking Age graves dating from 800 to 1050 CE, just under five miles north of Aarhus. Located near the town of Lisbjerg, the burial site has yielded a number of spectacular objects hinting at ties with Danish royalty. “The burial site is most likely connected to the Viking-era manor in Lisbjerg, which is less than a kilometer from the burial site,” Mads Ravn, an archaeologist from Moesgaard and Viking Age expert, explained in the M

Nintendo’s Revitalized GameCube Controller for Switch 2 Is Somehow Better Than the Original

2025 Nostalgia should not be enough to give any tech a passing grade. But let me come clean. I wouldn’t have dropped $65 on the revitalized GameCube controller for Switch 2 if I hadn’t spent my preteen years beholden to Nintendo’s boxy console. With improved buttons, the new version is better than anything from 2001. After so many years, I’ve come to see the gamepad as a unique device that’s enhanced by its limitations. Instead, it’s constrained by Nintendo’s own restrictions on where and how y
