• 306: Don't Exhaust Your Atoms 02.06.2026 27m

  Security takes center stage this week as the EEF's Jonatan Männchen highlights that atom exhaustion accounts for roughly one tenth of all CVEs in the BEAM ecosystem and Sobelow can help catch it before it hits production. Hackney users get an urgent nudge to upgrade to v4.0.3, which patches 9 CVEs including high-severity issues and fixes missing HTTP/3 certificate verification, thanks in part to Peter Ullrich's AI-assisted vulnerability research. On the exciting side, the new Elixir 1.20-rc.6 type system is proving its worth in the real world, with Tyler Young reporting it caught ~500 issues, including outright bugs, that 1.19 completely missed. Dannote releases "vibe", an ambitious BEAM-native coding agent for Elixir/OTP projects featuring a TUI, LiveView web console, subagents, and more!

• 300: Celebrating 300 with José Valim 21.04.2026 1h 24m

  It's Episode 300 — a milestone just under 6 years in the making! To celebrate, we kick things off with a fun song, then dive into the news: the Localize library v0.15.0 brings locale-aware formatting and Unicode CLDR data to Elixir without any compile-time code generation, a new library called Reach builds program dependence graphs for Elixir and Erlang to help coding agents and static analysis tools understand your codebase, Tidewave gets exciting updates including voice input with click-to-add context and the ability to install it as a PWA, the ErlEF has opened its 2026 board elections with voting running May 8-15, and more! Then we sit down with José Valim for an in-depth interview covering Elixir v1.20, the latest progress on the set-theoretic type system, the story behind Tidewave, and how AI is — and isn't — changing development on Elixir itself.
