Good luck with that. I used to be an OCD freak about code before LLMs, but AI coding has largely freed me of that limitation. I've become very comfortable giving AI a long leash, b…

I haven’t used Effect but the problem I see with using it is that it seems to want to completely swallow the whole app architecture. At that point, why not just use a functional la…

Railroads had enormous subsidies, too. This is how infrastructure is built, even in "capitalist" economies because it operates at the level of national security. Even to this day, …

AI might actually RTFM

Also had a severe issue with Bunny, serving videos. They had a cache poisoning issue where they served a few frames from pornographic videos right in the middle of our educational …

I really dislike how apps add themselves to the menubar. And I hate if there's no option to remove it from the menubar. Icons with indicators like WiFi, Battery, etc. make sense. B…

Then what’s the point of skills like apple-reminders? Isn’t the implication for a personal assistant styled OpenClaw setup that you allow it access to those tools on your behalf? O…

FastAPI -> OpenAPI -> openapi-typescript

Academia is more than a transaction. It's a social good. One that's also subsidized by the US taxpayer.

Compile step makes things more complicated.

I spent some time attempting to "derive" a theme given a primary and secondary color, but realized my color theory wasn't strong enough to build something reliable (I tried with bo…

PDF is arguably a confusing format for LLMs to read.

Exactly what came to mind for me as well. Information is a difference that makes a difference.

An analogy Statement: Statistically, seatbelts reduce the chances you’ll die in a car accident. You: But, what if your car crashes into a lake and you get trapped underwater?

This proves the GPs point about saving energy. Think about how inefficient it would be for each individual to create their own transcript via an LLM.

Would it be possible to embed Bitrig in an existing app? Similar to how you might embed React Native into a portion of your app to accelerate development in a specific area, it’d b…

One of the core things Node.js got right was streams. (Anyone remember substack’s presentation “Thinking in streams”?) It’s good to see them continue to push that forward.

This sounds like a breath of fresh air as a disenchanted Spotify user. My only hesitation is that I’ve lost touch with collecting music. I used to rip CDs and download music and cu…

For most APIs that doesn’t deliver any value which can’t be gained from API docs, so it’s hard to justify. However, these days it could be very useful if you want an AI to be able …

With 5M you can get white hat audits. Even big boys like Okta have had serious fuckups [1]. [1] https://trust.okta.com/security-advisories/okta-ad-ldap-dele...

shadcn distribution model for utils is a good idea. i wanted something for react hooks as well and was surprised that didn’t seem to exist either.

Wow, this looks awesome. Been using Temporal, but this fits so perfectly into my stack (Postgres, Pydantic), and the first-class support for DAG workflows is chef's kiss . Going to…

Seems like you should be correct. A shadcn button is just react, tailwind, and @radix/react-slot. But if you simply create a new shadcn Next.js template (i.e. pnpm dlx shadcn@lates…
