Working on validating a startup idea I had 12 years ago. It's like Pingdom for ads, periodically checking if your ads are being blocked by AdBlockers.

I always thought the idea was somewhat weak, but not enough to discard entirely. So, along with a friend, I built a prototype over the last two weeks, and now we're trying to validate it: https://scanningfox.com/

I'm enjoying using Elixir for this project. As a long-time Erlang dev, I was initially skeptical about Elixir, but Phoenix.LiveView has changed my opinion.

Liveview is so much fun. I want to build more things with it.
