Claude is very good at design IF you encode your design system/specs into skill files (or similar). Opus 4.7 made this a practical approach. 4.8 improved it. Fable 5 has improved i…

Thanks for sharing, that’s an interesting framework. The self-closing tags are very nice. Unfortunately, I don’t have anything public to show at the moment. Maybe I’ll blog about t…

Yes, though often I’ll omit the tag, and just target [slot=“hero-blurb”]. Depends on the situation.

I've been doing this for about three or four years. Clever idea, tricky in practice. I don't think I'd recommend this approach broadly. But it works for me. It's definitely possibl…

AI's superpower is doing mediocre work at high speed. That's okay. Great, even. There's lots of mediocre work to do. And mediocre still clears below average. But! There's still roo…

If the gamification is fully disclosed, I don't see the problem. People should be able to agree to game themselves, if it helps them complete a task they otherwise wouldn't finish.…

Server-side JS is fine, and actually very nice in some contexts. The language and runtime(s) have come a long way. But anyone who tries it without really understanding JS is eventu…

I believe you’ve just described the RISC-V project, though I could be mistaken.

"Innovation" in this context does not mean cutting-edge technology. It just means changing processes to deliver better results. The tech is often the easy part, and there's plenty …

The Bun libraries made it very easy to create my own static site generator. Not a huge lift, I know, but it’s been a delight to work with.

I would probably spend an hour or two just writing something like that. On the surface, I'd agree. With that said, in my experience, many stand-up formats devolve into some version…

I would recommend community college to smart kids without direction. It’s a great place to explore subjects without going into debt.

It's really clear to me. (And I did account for the subsequent README commits since your comment). But that's probably because I already know Web Components well. I'm in the market…

If you're using browser APIs to do lean local interactions, then good for you. Gold star. Fully approved. That's not what I've been seeing recently from the people around me who ar…

Not much of an assumption. Many local-first solutions work from a big wad of JS. I've seen use of WASM to include things like SQLite. It's not pretty. My point is that if you're in…

Ah yes, let's ask people on spotty connections to download a (likely) megabytes-large JavaScript bundle. What could go wrong? Most of my users have old phones and bad connections. …

Sometimes, but not enough. Everyone tries to write web components like it's "Open Standards React Lite". And the results are as poor as expected. Web components are superficially s…

When you see this, it’s a sign that someone built their web components with React/Angular/Vue on the brain. The tech is fine. You can achieve amazing progressive enhancement with w…

It feels like Xbox also serves as a reference controller for PC. Viewed from that angle, basic and conservative makes sense. I still really like the XBox controllers for their ergo…
