punk attitude, enthusiast coder. gleam, rust, python, ts - mostly experiments. my github reflects the process.
Some good noise today 🤩
STR 2.0 crossed 100 downloads.
Small library, big milestone for me.
Appreciate everyone using it or trying it out.

💜 distribute 2.1.0 is out.
not a patch.
not a “small improvement”.
just me trying to push distributed computing in @gleam.run a bit further than comfort allows.
type-safe. OTP-native. no fluff.

Alright, that’s the story.
If this sounds like your kind of thing,
I want to get back up and talk about it.
Meetups, confs, basements, improvised stages.
If you know where this could land drop a hint, make a connection, pass the word.
No quests. No prestige. Only XP.

Back when I was a teen everything was in motion.
Hackmeetings, late nights, IRC scrolling nonstop, forum posts half-baked.
Write code. Talk about it. Give talks.
With slides, without slides, didn’t matter.
What mattered was being alive and doing things.

I’ve always used Jekyll with a custom theme for my few (failed) blog attempts. 👾
After an all-nighter with Astro, I’m seriously considering porting the theme over and ditching Ruby, gems, and their lovely collection of ancient dependencies.
Anyone wants to try and change my mind?

Pulling an all-nighter with Astro and GSAP, and honestly?
I’m using them all wrong.
Building a single-page template by breaking it into components for no reason other than the sheer joy of over-engineering.
No blog posts, no data.
Just clean code and motion.

Anyone else, after a short break or partial disconnect, suddenly fall straight into the web-design rabbit hole?
Blog ideas, redesigns, “what if I rebuild everything” impulses,
and other objectively bad decisions.
Or is this just a recurring personal flaw?

I’ve noticed a few people started using cmp_gleam for @gleam.run (cmp for friends).
If you’re one of them: how’s it going?
What broke, what surprised you, what did you hate more than expected?
Feedback welcome. I promise not to argue. Probably.

Heads up:
I’ll be releasing str 1.3.0 in the next few days.
It does basically nothing just deprecation annotations to signal the upcoming 2.0.0.
I don’t love changing the rules mid-game, but it’s necessary to clean things up properly.
⚠️ Consider this your warning. (Sorry)

What a stupid idea it was to mess with FFIs. But, hey, I love this job! @gleam.run

Unicode lied to your terminal.
I’m working on display-width–aware APIs for str: columns, truncation, padding, emoji and CJK included.
Pure Gleam, no NIFs, no shortcuts.
A small distraction before the inevitable major release.

@lpil.uk was spot on about HTML escape handling > thanks for that 💜.
Now back to the gleam-orous stuff 😉: cleaning up the codebase, shaving the API surface, and maybe shipping a couple of things people asked for. If luck allows.

Helping a dear friend move from C to OCaml for work. He’s got a manual, but I want to gather extra resources: tutorials, repos, example projects, tips, gotchas, everything that makes the jump less brutal.

str 1.2.2 is out.
No new real features.
Just fewer fixes, clearer docs, and me admitting the API grew weird.
Everything else is now explained, not implied.
Two new experimental algorithms:
KMP and Sliding.
Auto-select if you trust heuristics, pick one if you don’t.
