    And trending down. IE6 was 97%, how did that work out?

    Trump was elected by the electors, not by the people. Not entirely dissimilar from how VDL was elected.

    Breaking an illegal monopoly takes decades but, as it happened with Internet Explorer 6, it's finally happening for Windows.

    However "world models" have been a thing for the entire history of computers. They have changed names over time: "rules engines", "expert systems", "semantic web", and so on and so…

    If BEM is regular CSS, why would I use BEM instead of the actual thing? It's a layer of indirection for no reason if it's the same. You use Tailwind in the same way you use BEM: be…

    If that is so, why are people getting up in arms about tailwind?

    The poster I responded to, specifically asked for how to implement this in tailwind, with a worry about "do you really style each component separately for dark mode? Repeating the …

    That’s exactly how I’m doing this using tailwind and daisyui though, so I’m not sure what point you are trying to make? My global tailwind.css defines two sets of css vars for the …

    You just make a design system in your tailwind.css, following the documentation. You can optionally use something like daisyui if you do not have designer skills or the time. That …

    It is obvious that you are just trolling, but for other readers: our production app went from 50-100 unexplained sentry errors in typescript to 0 sentry errors in rust. The languag…

    Fat services, thin routes. Try moving your business logic to a library and consume it from both your UI and API routes. That minimizes duplication and decouples your public API res…

    Having used both in anger, I find d* has a lot of very real advantages over react if you care about performance and application stability. It's simple enough that you don't need tr…

    You either buy a datastar license to get their debug tools, or you spend a couple of hours to build your own. I'm sure you can find something on GitHub too. One of the cool things …

    Our UI is highly interactive: think 3d visualizations with toggle-able overlays, various display settings, searchable lists, drawing tools etc. We made a lot of progress with htmx,…

    I highly recommend everyone to give htmx or datastar a try, especially if your main experience is react or nextjs. We recently rewrote a half-million LOC codebase from react to dat…

    There used to be a time when you had to write in assembly and count bytes to fit your code into the vanishingly small ROM you had available. Nowadays, you can just write in python …

    I don't know, the CEO of Anthropic has openly said that each model by itself is profitable, they just reinvest everything into training more and more expensive models.

    It's mimicking humans only in as far as it is still using tools & programming languages developed by humans, for humans. This is temporary. There is a future where AI builds tools …
