I’ve been playing around with the Ash framework in Elixir and decided to learn it by building something small. I ended up modeling Yggdrasil, the World Tree from Norse mythology 🌳. Part 1 is up, mostly getting a feel for the basics. www.newresalhaider.com/post/yggdrasil #AshFramework #ElixirLang

Inspired by Patrick McKenzie’s essay "Falsehoods Programmers Believe About Names", I ran a few prompts to see how GenAI fares. While it avoids some pitfalls, good prompting still matters (for now). www.newresalhaider.com/post/falseho... #GenAI #SoftwareEngineering #HumanInTheLoop

From a turbulent priest in the Middle Ages to GenAI today, ambiguity has real consequences. I wrote a short article on how Semantic Web technologies can help: www.newresalhaider.com/post/turbule... #GenAI #LLM #Turtle #SPARQL #LinkedData #SemanticWeb

Made a tiny LiveView example inspired by the movie They Live. Put on the sunglasses and see which humans are really aliens 👽. Get a quick glimpse of how to write interactive web apps without touching JavaScript. www.newresalhaider.com/post/theyliv... #ElixirLang #Phoenix #LiveView #WebDevelopment

Just grabbed a copy of the Ash Framework book (thanks for the promo code 👀). Evening reading: sorted!

I started learning Rust recently and, as an exercise, built a tool to parse MTG Arena logs. Read about it in my blog article Gathering Rust 👉 www.newresalhaider.com/post/gatheri... #RustLang #MTG #LearningRust #Programming #DevBlog

I’ve been working through Pragmatic Studio’s Phoenix course, and it’s been incredibly helpful for learning the framework in a hands-on, practical way. I can’t wait to get to the next lesson! #ElixirLang #PhoenixFramework

One of Linked Data’s key strengths is making data understandable by both humans and machines. I wrote a short Star Wars-themed piece on how compacting and expanding with JSON-LD helps make that happen. Check it out: www.newresalhaider.com/post/trashco... #JSONLD #LinkedData #StarWars #AIReadyData

I’m working my way through "The Rust Book", and I have to say it is really well written. It is a great introduction to the Rust programming language. I like how it explains concepts, even trickier ones like borrowing, in a very accessible way. #RustLang doc.rust-lang.org/book/

Just published: "The Great AI'Tuin" 🐢 A short introduction to the Turtle syntax for RDF, and how it can help you build and use knowledge graphs in the age of LLMs. 🔗 www.newresalhaider.com/post/aituin/ #AI #SemanticWeb #RDF #Discworld #LLM

I took Stability Matrix for a spin to generate images for a cyberpunk-inspired story on my desktop. It makes installing models and frontends easy, without the need to wrestle with dependencies or command line setup. Read here: www.newresalhaider.com/post/intothe... #AIArt #Cyberpunk #SciFi
