Codetown ::: a software developer's community

It's a good book, especially for community leaders. In fact, if you like the book you might want to join Jono and about 200 other community leaders for the Community Leadership Summit. This free un-conference runs every year the weekend prior to OSCON. I attended for the first time last year and really enjoyed myself.

Thanks, Jeff - between the Community Leadership Summit, OSCON and Open Source Bridge, I may as well move to Portland. Oh well, there's always Portlandia. Yes, the Community Leaders Summit looks like a good conference. Thanks.
And, thanks for inspiring me to take a second look at this book. I just picked it up again and read "The Building Blocks of Building Buzz", which I find to be the greatest reward of being part of an online community. People love to contribute when they feel comfortable enough to actually engage. Do you find yourself agreeing with Jono's approaches in this book and sometimes saying "Hey, I do that when I build communities"?
Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

9 years after the Phoenix web framework was made generally available, Phoenix LiveView recently reached 1.0 (release candidate). LiveView allows developers to create rich, real-time server-rendered applications without writing JavaScript. LiveView relies on the Erlang virtual machine (BEAM) to scale to millions of WebSocket connections handled by multiple processes concurrently.
By Bruno CouriolRecently, Elastic, a platform for search-powered solutions, discussed the advantages of phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication (MFA). This secure authentication method goes beyond traditional MFA, which uses passwords, SMS codes, or biometrics, by employing multiple layers of protection and a cryptographic registration process.

By Anthony AlfordRecently, GitHub released a technical preview of GitHub Copilot Workspace, a developer environment built on GPT-4 Turbo explicitly designed for Copilot. This workspace lets developers quickly brainstorm, plan, build, test, and run code using natural language.
By Steef-Jan WiggersBuilding reliable stateful services at scale isn’t a matter of building reliability into the servers, the clients, or the APIs in isolation. By combining smart and meaningful choices for each of these three components, we can build massively scalable, SLO-compliant stateful services at Netflix.
