I'm in the process of planning an indoor-outdoor wedding in NYC so I made a little weather history explore tool https://12seasons.nyc/explore/

15 years of mouse-free professional programming and never in my life have I touched these.

Anyone else catch that he wrote this on an 11-inch MacBook Air (2016 at latest)?

What I like about Marimo notebooks over Jupyter: 1. They're just a python file so they work with python editors 2. There's no hidden state 3. I can import from them 4. I'm not acci…

huh, I was doing this but without the feature. This is neat!

I think the trick to using libraries like this is to not go all in on them. Applying these effects to every element would be garish. But for a single like button, an effect slider,…

Just 25 years too late to be used to design Jelly World https://neopets.fandom.com/wiki/Jelly_World

I agree. We're seeing more variants of "RAG" that aren't semantic at all (e.g. coding agents or simple memory systems that feed summary indexes directly into context). I think, ove…

Wow. This is so freaking cool.

I say this with a lot of love: The vibecoded applications in your demo reek of AI slop design. This isn't a critique of your product. It's just that the a beige-orange theme, the p…

Apt for self-hosting

Oil changes aren't the best example. They're pretty easy to do at home for basically everything and filters are pretty standardized. But car batteries, brake pads, tire pressure se…

Why does AI want to stress me with that cup about to fall off the desk

Eh, it was the exact same system for the Switch 2 and no one I know waited more than a week for theirs. Given it requires a Steam login of a certain age to register, I suspect this…

> pause for 5 seconds between responses I'm sure I'm not the only one, but I've gotten so aggressive about monitoring for this. I do most interviews zoomed in on the candidate's ey…

This is an insane take. Also wrong, gay marriage had 60% support before Obergefell v. Hodges.

I have one of these. Basically dead with modern MacOS but runs Linux Mint XFCE really well.

OpenAI API also supports defer_loading https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/guides/tools-tool-sea... And it's not actually necessary for it to exist at the API level. It's a patt…

+1 Its crazy that people are still discussing this. It's ancient history. Deferred tool loading, large contexts, and prompt caching have made 2026 completely different from 2025. A…

There was a time, in the early to mid 2010s, when the phrase "Fake News" was almost exclusively used by people in publishing to talk about a very real rise in editorial disruption …

I work for an "AI-native" company now and have found this to be the case. EVERYONE (engineers, pms, managers, sales) uses Claude Code to read and write Google Docs (google workspac…

If that's true, it's very unsustainable. Gemma-4 26B-A4B + M5 MacBook Pro + OpenCode isn't Claude Code _yet_, but it's good enough that if I were forced to use it I would be fine.

I love the batteries included in Helix. Just the right amount that I don't need much else. At this point I just want a decent Helix-Evil-Mode.

I had a few years of writing clojure for work ten years ago and it's still my mental model of how I think about programming.
