Meet PhonenixPlayground

I found this library on github suggestions and I always wanted to have something simple and quick to test out LiveView prototypes. What can be quicker than opening Livebook and trying something there? Folks behind PhonenixPlayground made both of my wishes come true!

If you would like jump straight into the code:

In August 2023, I opened my own LLC to run a fractional CTO/consulting business. After almost a year, I learned some important things that could be useful for people who would like to make a change in their career.

1. Never trust anyone unless the contract is signed and the invoice is paid.

As the title says, a potential client might be eager to work with you, but when it comes to the actual contract and work, they might suddenly disappear without any signs of life, even people with whom you thought you had a nice relationship. Lower your expectations to zero or sometimes below zero. Once the contract is signed and the invoice is paid, you can have a small relief. (This happened to me 9 out of 10 times, maybe something is wrong with me)

How to establish a culture of continuous improvement across whole company?

Why it’s even important to have continuous improvement culture in your company? For example, if you read a book for 15 minutes daily you already read more than majority of people aged between 15 to 44. Just fifteen minutes a day may put you ahead of competition and this result will be multiplied through the period of time. Same works in business, teams of personal growth.
