    I am already using Claude in Xcode 26.2. What did they change / add specifically in 26.3? It's not super clear behind the marketing haze.

    This highlights a common pitfall: If you “solve” a problem with a “temporary” solution, you lower the priority of the better solution below every unsolved problem. And there are al…

    I would encourage folks to listen to this podcast episode from April 2020 for some background on how the virus itself can carry detectable earmarks of being natural or lab-grown an…

    They think they aren’t, but it’s yet another thing they’re confused about.

    Peter Thiel almost certainly didn’t invent this. The idea that our decisions are heavily influenced by those around us is one of those things that’s been well-established in the re…

    In my experience "Does your company measure the long term benefit of X?" is 99.99999% "no" for any X.

    I'm hoping this leads to an announcement of some kind of hypervisor support in iPadOS 15. I would imagine that would come at WWDC if it's coming. Seems like it would allow software…

    That's a fair question and something I should have clarified in my comment (though I have a feeling it is likely addressed in the blog post I linked to). It gets into the deeper mo…

    I see a lot of comments in here about the v2+ rule’s reason for existing being to allow importing multiple major versions of a module. That’s not it at all. As the blog post (which…

    Our setup process is a much lighter lift than standing up a server and installing gitolite on it. But yes, if GitHub is down, then your workflow is going to change. We're hoping to…

    Absolutely. Our strategy is to give you a decentralized on-ramp by starting with GitHub's central value proposition of the "one true git remote" that everyone can share. We made a …

    dgit dev here. Good question. For starters, dgit is not 100% tied to Sia, it's just a great decentralized file hosting service so we started with it as the first default. But to an…

    Straw man alert. I've never heard a YIMBY argue for "build anything, anywhere." I've only ever heard them argue for exactly what the article proposes, i.e. smart, context-aware den…
