    I'm not who you replied to, but we use Biome for 99% of the linting/formatting, and then an eslint plugin for a few specific i18n scenarios that Biome doesn't cover.

    In terms of knowledge sharing and gathering hard-won human context I agree, sort of. An LM review can at least prompt some reasonable changes, catch performance issues, etc.

    Thanks for putting into words what I have been seeing a lot at work and haven't been able to put my finger on. We tend to have quite diverse _workflows_ between devs at my company,…

    A simple one - a small MacOS status bar widget that shows me if my Ethernet adapter is the default connection or WiFi. It also shows the reported link speed. I have a _very_ flaky …

    Yoof, that reframing is interesting but took LONG

    This seems somewhat sensible to me - the genie _is_ out of the bottle, and students absolutely will use AI agents to finish assignments without learning a thing, but there is some …

    AI has made my experience as a fully remote worker in a not-fully-remote company worse. It is adding a layer of indirection between myself and the juniors I'm mentoring, or the pro…

    Man, I really miss Terry Pratchett too. He has been my favourite author for as long as I can remember (maybe Roald Dahl before that?). It helped having such a volume of work to go …

    As someone whose work enforced a switch from Cursor to Claude Code, I do keep on top of the code by pairing it with an IDE, tracking/viewing changes etc. There's no real obstacle t…

    I'm in the industry (albeit not a 20-year old), and agree that the domain itself is incredibly dry. The tech is quite interesting, thankfully. From a customer perspective it's inte…

    I don't know exactly how to measure bang for buck, but my Sony XM4s have been holding up well, sound good, are decently comfortable for a day's work, the battery life is good, etc.…

    I'm building a very casual daily price-guessing game for my mum. Every day she gives me feedback, and I'm using it as a chance to de-rust my CSS/React + see how daily games tick. h…

    Peter was quite vocal on twitter about _only_ using Codex to develop OpenClaw, but Claude is what a majority of people were (are?) using to run the tool itself.

    At least both of those threads contain a healthy amount of skepticism in the comments

    Maybe they will avoid the storage cost by generating this slop on the fly; who would notice?

    That's the first I've seen of 4k77 and related projects, thanks for sharing. A true labour of love.

    I'm not sure what the distinction between "execute" and "run" is; is there a difference?

    Having a typo in "pendantic" is a masterstroke

    In my experience (albeit from about 4 years ago) having some kind of private package with pipenv (or even plain pip) was really annoying. We went the route of a private repo on Git…

    As someone curious about learning more about type systems, would you mind elaborating on 1.? I'm assuming you mean the formal definition of "sound", not just as a synonym for "sens…

    Not who you are replying to, but I started learning HTML/CSS right when HTML5 and CSS3 had just come out, so I do have somewhat of a soft spot for these

    Disclaimer: I am already a Kagi customer. At least for Afrikaans I'm not impressed here. There are some inaccuracies, like "varktone" becoming "pork rinds" instead of "pig toes" an…
