Erlang Solutions: Women in BEAM In this post, I will share the results of the Women in BEAM 2024 survey. But first, I would like to share my experience in the BEAM community to understand the motivation behind this initiative.
I’ve been working with Elixir since 2018, but my interest in it wasn’t driven by technical advantages—it was sparked by my experience at my first ElixirConf in Mexico.

yaxim: Planned downtime + Happy 10th anniversary, yax.im! Our Android XMPP client yaxim was created in 2009. A decade later, we celebrated its round birthday.

Prosodical Thoughts: Prosody 0.11.13 released We are pleased to announce a new minor release from our stable branch.
This is a(nother!) release for our stable branch to fix a memory leak caused by the security fix. Deployments using websockets, SQL storage and possibly other configurations may have noticed increasing memory usage after upgrading to 0.11.12. This is resolved by this new release.
A summary of changes in this release:
Ignite Realtime Blog: Openfire 4.5.6 is released Openfire 4.5.6 has been released, that addresses an annoying issue that was affecting the earlier 4.5.5 release. We’ve updated the bundled log4j library to version 2.17.1 for good measure.
The changelog denotes the two Jira issues closed by this release. You can find Openfire build artifacts available for download [here](https://github.com/igniterealtime/Openfire/rel ... ⌘ Read more
Ignite Realtime Blog: Openfire 4.6.7 released (Log4j 2.17.1 only change) Openfire 4.6.7 has been released with only a single change to bump the bundled log4j library to version 2.17.1. Whilst we do not believe Openfire to be vulnerable to the CVEs associated with the log4j 2.17.0 and 2.17.1 releases, we realize that many folks are running naive security scanners that are simply checking for bundled jar versions.

Peter Saint-Andre: Meditations on Bach #9: Musical Monadology In meditation #7 of this series, I took note of some similarities between the aesthetics of Aristotle and the music of Bach. Another intriguing influence might be the monadology of Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (1646-1716), who directly influenced philosophers and musical theorists in the Bach's orbit: for instance, Bach's student Lorenz Mizler (1711-1778) was a follower of the Leibniz scholar Christian Wolff (1679-1754). In chapter 5 of his book Music in the Culture of th ... ⌘ Read more
Peter Saint-Andre: Aristotle Research Report #17: Let the Re-Reading Begin Just under two years ago, I thought I was done with phase one of my research into Aristotle's views o human flourishing, having at that point read around 120 distinct works by or related to Aristotle (including all of Plato's dialogues). Well, I was wrong: since then I've read an additional 150 works, almost exclusively in the scholarly literature on Aristotle. Now I have three whole shelves of books about Aristotle in my office.... ⌘ Read more
