I wish it would at least be kept out of UI frameworks.

Thank you for your thoughtful reply. The extension system makes great sense. But it's also stuff like `"SELECT * FROM my_df"` – It's super cool but why is my database connecting to…

I have a deep appreciation for DuckDB, but I am afraid the confluence of brilliant ideas makes it ever more complicated to adopt —- and DuckLake is another example for this trend. …

To be honest, I don’t know. I just enjoy the simplicity of devenv. It’s the right amount of user friendly.

Although I’ve never committed to using nix system-wide, I do enjoy nix-based using https://devenv.sh/ for the very reasons described in the article. It’s much easier than local con…

Sure and that’s nice going forward. Yet unlike with Chrome, older devices won’t be updated making this a nice add-on at best.

And yet another modernisation of the web platform sabotaged by Apple and their misguided (malicious?) refusal to update their devices continually. https://caniuse.com/temporal It w…

I like this a lot. What I would love to see is a panel to run management commands and see their output. Would be great in services like Google Cloud Run where you cannot access a s…

This is a straw-man argument. A public service that can answer whether a one-time key provided by the user to the service fulfills a certain requirement would suffice.

No doubt, maybe should I have emphasised the "general" part of "general purpose" more. Not a hardware person myself, I wonder whether there would be purpose-built hardware that cou…

Whenever I see another supposedly menial device including enough general purpose hardware to run Doom, I wonder whether I should think of that as a triumph of software over hardwar…

Answering the question how to sell more tokens per customer while maintaining ~~mediocre~~ breakthrough results.

Seeing news like this, I wonder whether there is a market for an OSS Android and/or Linux distribution that provides the management comfort of Chromebooks without being tied to Goo…

The actual disturbing thing is that given Next‘s track record of questionable security architecture, the author felt compelled to make the joke explicit.

There is an element of tragic comedy to those announcement. While remarkable on their own, everybody knows that one cannot use any new browser feature reliably any time soon due to…

To me personally, it feels like Windows 2000 was the last and maybe only consistent UI onto which all later versions bolted what they considered improvements without ever overhauli…

I am glad Vercel works on agents now. After all, Next is absolutely perfect and recommends them for greater challenges. /s

Thank you. I was rather thinking of magazine like layouts with columns of text and headers and footers on every page holding article title and page number.

How does it do with multi-column text and headers and footers?

I wonder what happened to Siri. Not a single mention anywhere?

I wonder how this relates to Mother Duck ( https://motherduck.com/ )? They do „DuckDB-powered data warehousing“ but predate this substantially.

Not knowing much about special-purpose chips, I would like to understand whether chips like this would give Google a significant cost advantage over the likes of Anthropic or OpenA…

This looks great! Is anyone familiar with something similar for Python in general and Django in particular?

I wonder whether the search algorithm would need (and can?) to be adjusted to respond to the increased probability of playing numbers that are hard to find with standard binary sea…

Big fan of Tailscale, yet I wonder whether it wouldn’t be better to make internal services securely available over the internet (zero trust rather than castle-and-moat). On the oth…
