Finnish people don't read this toot, thank you.

I maintain a few packages in the BEAM ecosystem (in Elixir and Gleam). I also sometimes blog about related things. If you'd like to support that, and you're not from Finland, you can do so now at https://liberapay.com/Nicd (Finnish users are blocked). It also acts as a bit of a showcase of things I've done, although I still need to add some things.

🌘 Elixir 迷思 #1:別再說「讓它崩潰」,應讓它「癒合」
➤ 重新思考 Elixir 的容錯哲學:從「讓它崩潰」到「讓它癒合」
https://www.zachdaniel.dev/p/elixir-misconceptions-1
這篇文章挑戰了 Elixir 社羣中常見的「讓它崩潰」(let it crash) 觀念。作者 Zach Daniel 認為,這種說法誤導了初學者,並可能導致不良的程式碼習慣。他強調,雖然 Elixir 的 BEAM VM 能夠透過 Supervisor 重啟崩潰的進程,但對使用者而言,頻繁的崩潰和重啟會影響使用者體驗。因此,作者提倡「讓它癒合」(let it heal) 的概念,鼓勵開發者在處理錯誤時,應優先考慮代表錯誤狀態給使用者,並確保系統能夠從錯誤中恢復,而非一味地依賴崩潰後重啟。
+ 作者的觀點非常有啟發性!我過去也常聽到「讓它崩潰」,但從未深入思考其對使用者體驗的影響。這篇文章讓我重新審視了 Elixir 的錯誤處理方式。
+ 確實,只強調崩潰和重啟,忽略瞭如何向
