Ghostty has my daily driver for a good while now, I’ve been super happy with it. It’s been especially fun watching Mitchell deftly build a community at just the right speed for its…

Serious unintended consequences of ordering… Reminds me of the hungry judge effect [1] - judges tend to be more harsh before a break and more lenient after. [1] https://en.m.wikipe…

I experienced AR for the first time with the Vision Pro, and I came away with the same impressions; it’s not quite ready for mainstream but “magical” really is apt. I was a big ske…

Very interesting to me that our dreams make some of the same mistakes. Some of the usual reality checks to know if you’re dreaming: - looking at your hands - looking at clocks - tr…

I'm at a 1/4 of that. I love it and I'm just hoping it sticks around long enough to get me to 40 ;)

Throughout my career thus far, I’ve consistently been advised to get really good at writing if I want to make the biggest impact I can. With that being said, I’ve been doing some p…

Thank you, I really appreciate this :)

This is fantastic, thank you so much for the thoughtful response! I happen to be super interested in systems programming (OSes, DBs, PLs), but I've worried that those fundamentals …

Totally agree, it’s the textual equivalent of the visual uncanny valley. Communication in general is obviously not gonna go away. Certain kinds of corporate copy-writing where the …

I'm graduating this semester with my MS in CS and I'm beginning what will likely be 45+ years of career work. With the pace of AI/ML developments in the past 5 years, what kinds of…

Do the web browser offerings of those apps not cut it?

Sounds something like charm’s vhs: https://github.com/charmbracelet/vhs

Anybody have anything like a "hall of fame" for easy-to-read beautiful working code?

Aarch64 is supported (M series chips) if that’s what you’re worried about.

It's always fun for me to see C. elegans meet software. This is amazing. My undergrad degree capstone project was a flow-based visual C. elegans strain builder[1]. The team worked …

Agreed about Go-like interfaces. I don’t think it’d fit Zig to make them dynamic at runtime the way Go does, but even just as a compile-time constraint it would make building a com…

Of course its simpler, I just wanted it to make sure the comment still related to her work on this :) In summation, what she’s done is awesome.

SvelteKit is such a breath of fresh air, glad to see it used on this.

jart is a genius. What they’ve done with Blink, Cosmopolitan C, Redbean, and now llama.cpp is incredible. It gives me hope for the future of systems/low-level programming.

Thank goodness we’ve had record breaking snow this year, so the lake lives to see another day!

I can’t help but feel like our brains didn’t evolve to understand the scale of competing against thousands of others to get admitted to college slots and get jobs. Once the interne…

Ending alfalfa farming would likely help a lot. The water usage is insane for such a small part of Utah’s GDP.
