China is the factory of the world. They don't need software to win. Rather they prefer software is free and they can win in hardware. So if AI inference is free, they can put it in…

https://atishay.me mostly on low maintenance since 2018 when it was ready. Occasionally add blog posts.

macOS has started to add some unplanned APIs all in the name of security. Full disk access - no api to get the permission. No way to do this in XCode permanently for development. J…

Just like we did HTML in JS via JSX or lit html, I wonder if we should have better SQL in JS that way.

The entire argument from the utilities is flawed. The solar customers are providing electricity in the middle of the city. So they are doing distribution in the sense that there ar…

You have to get it into the db with a a migration checked into your git repo.

Took forever. I opened the github issue more than 5 years back. This implementation is solid though - full backwards compatibility with checkbox, stying support. Considering the co…

Please build a getmetoahuman.ai which talks to these chat its and transfers calls to me when it finally reaches a human.

It just makes more sense to build it in an entity with better funding and commercialization. There will be advanced 2-3 AIs and the most humane one doesn't necessarily win out. It …

You can build it using Netlify forms or cloud flare functions. But I rarely get comments that are not spam. Think if you need them. Email/twitter or GitHub issues might be good eno…

I really long a WebSQL core coming back to the web. Get us back a good SQL implementation in browsers. WASM SQL over IndexDB should not be the future.

You can also fire the CXOs and keep promoting from within at 1% the current CXO stock options with a 10 year vesting cliff and the company will survive - may actually do a lot bett…

Good for them in the short run. In the longer version of this, the company gets lazy with their fat margins and adds a lot of administrative cruft. A leaner competitor comes in and…

Hugo’s documentation is a great reference and very well articulated. If you are looking for a tutorial and want to grow understanding, a book might be much better. I am the author …

I hosted a small snippet on heroku and am using https://github.com/atishay/tex2svg/ for my personal Hugo website. It is really cheap and easy to do latex to svg.

I think what it will eventually turn out to be is - Apple will require IAP/Storekit but will be forced to allow others. And you will see something like this - $10 - Pay by Apple, $…

They could also do this by exposing get subscriptions and cancel subscription APIs that other payment providers/apps can implement. Just like the share sheet, there can be a pay sh…

This is amazing to see. We should use this for image optimization. When we compress channels, we should compress the blue channel to like 30% while keeping others at fairly large 8…

A more capitalist solution to the random ware problem could be ransomware insurance ideally mandated. You get hit and the company pays. But your premium rises the next time and til…

For the Corolla vs Corvette example, Toyota allows you to open the hood and take the toyota engine out. The screws are all standards and tools are available to get parts you need t…

I personally love Laxygit https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit . It makes sure I don't have to think.

In some sense that has morphed into login with Facebook/Google

React(Js framework) is close to PHP as a concept. Facebook's team had to take ideas from their exisitng code. With JSX, we could potentially call it a new language.

It is weird in the hindsight as with just Webkit(which is most of blink still) and Gecko, there are just two engines left. And when Gecko goes down (which is losing market share), …
