I feel vindicated. I knew this game was bullshit and it couldn't possibly have been a skill issue.

Why? Statins are one of the most well studied drugs in existence. Most people have no side effects, and the long-term benefits are incredibly straightforward - on par with blood pr…

I thought I'd miss all the typing and syntax, but I really don't. Everyone has their own relationship with coding, but for me, I get satisfaction out of the end product and putting…

It really is just mostly this, and social media has tricked people into thinking otherwise. I was looking at some photos of myself about 10 years ago. At the time, I had been hitti…

The reason it's faster is largely because it doesn't have all those little quality of life features and extension ecosystem. It's easyish to make software perform well if it doesn'…

You can tell by the colors, the icons, the font...most Claude Code apps from scratch will look roughly like this.

I've built significant applications using Monaco, including things that tie into custom LSPs. They really just should have used Monaco. This will be a burden to maintain and won't …

What's the story with supporting CommonJS libraries? I've tried to update many projects to ESM multiple times over the years, and every time, I ended up backing out because it turn…

I just couldn't figure out what this was in <60 seconds. Examples and use cases need to be a little more prominent in the docs.

You've gotten good at telling the machine what to do. He's gotten good at telling people what to do. The latter turns out to be a much more effective way to build power and influen…

It is absolutely worth the cost and complexity. The cost and complexity of building a web application using some home grown vanilla JS system will end up being a horrible engineeri…

Cline is pretty solid and doesn't require you to use a completely unsustainable VSCode fork.

I agree that it's amazing as a learning tool. I think the "time to ramp" on a new technology or programming language has probably been cut in half or more.

By the time I've fully documented and explained what I want to be done, and then review the result, usually finding that it's worse than what I would have written myself, I end up …

The AI interpretation can be folded into a multidisciplinary approach. We wouldn't merely take AI's word for it. Does this interpretation make sense given what historians and anthr…

It's not, as defamation should have legal consequences. A one billion dollar payout verdict is just orders of magnitude off in terms of proportionality. Unfortunately, Alex Jones t…

Same reason Ross Ulbricht was sentenced to life in prison for conspiracy charges and CCE. Unusually harsh for those convictions and a first time offender. The point is, as cliche a…

EU regulation has been a disaster for the web.

Anecdotally, it seems like a ton of projects got started as a result of this bill, but it doesn't seem like many of them are getting worked on or finished. It's giving me the impre…

Is there some betting market where I can put money on this other side of this prediction?

> But not everyone lives in an environment where they can just set up a chair on the deck and sip wine while they work on their items for the sprint. That one product manager who p…

30% cut for handling taxes? That's wild.

There's tons of glue code that gets written in Python.

A missing tech here feels like TypeScript. It feels like the perfect mix of expressiveness and type safety for AI/ML work. I wish there was more tooling out there for it. For me, G…

> I really don't. AI output is fundamentally derivative and exploitative (of content, labor and the environment). From the start, you can see where the author is coming from. This …
