If anyone is looking for a TypeScript framework that embraces hypermedia the same way that HTMX does (and is very easy to use with HTMX), check out Hyperspan: https://www.hyperspan…

Here is a visual of where/how they are crossing: https://x.com/Karma40114312/status/2083197740218024131

Weird how these streams of immigrants are always young men, and almost never families or groups of women and children actually fleeing some real war or oppression.

If environmentalists and governments really wanted to solve this problem, they would be all in on nuclear energy. It is by far the safest, cleanest, most carbon-neutral form of ene…

Definitions vary for sure. I just mentioned them because they did well at the box office, which is what will keep "cinema" alive.

> Even cinema is dying and nobody seems to care that much. Cinema is dying from mostly self-inflicted wounds though. They keep making movies (or re-making movies ) with bad writing…

Huge props to just sticking with the HTTP spec on this one with `Cache-Control` headers with `stale-while-revalidate` support. It's amazing how many other providers mess that up. O…

I just say "no, I am opting out" and that's the end of it. They literally don't care.

They have photos , but not a voluntary full face scan.

The phrase "people will not just [...]" comes to mind here. The amount of people that let the TSA take a scan of their face when going through airport security - even when the sign…

The dealer issues are true, but we have been very happy with our 2021 Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy after owning it for 5+ years and 82k miles. Budget luxury with pretty good handli…

Sam didn't "win" the case in the sense that most people will think of when reading this headline. In the 20th paragraph of the linked article, finally getting to the actual reason:…

Cursor did this IDE -> Agents transition very well. Cursor still supports both the IDE and the Agents window, open at the same time, in the same project. I frequently use both and …

Speaking of this show... I can't find all seasons of this on DVD/Bluray anywhere. Seasons 1 and 2 can be found if you have the money, but seasons 3 and 4 are nowhere to be found. I…

So is Notion Cloudflare now?

Educated guess on why this is happening: All the people who get free water cups, then fill them with soda. Happens increasingly often now. We are moving towards a low-trust society…

Portless is a great tool for this! I use it for all my apps now. Zero config + built in HTTPS locally. https://portless.sh/ Example from the website: - "dev": "next dev" # http://l…

Agreed on the MCP sentiment, and particularly remote MCPs. They keep themselves up to date with predefined tools, schemas, descriptions of how to use them, etc. where skills tend t…

I recently noticed an uptick in cold emails and spam after publishing my new website. After a few weeks, I asked Claude/Cursor to obfuscate the email for spam protection in the mai…

This is actually how ancient civilizations safely stored the spent nuclear fuel from their nuclear reactors.

I obviously meant traditional React components, not RSC. RSC can eliminate some client code, but they can be very awkward to use in practice, and lines between server and client ge…

The basic premise of Next is good, but it definitely has more overhead that in should, has odd "middleware", and is very hard to optimize. I view this mostly as a React problem tho…

Yes. Tax season for small businesses and New Year's resolutions for personal finances are the times I get the largest influx of new signups and subscriptions.

Not really sure how to answer this, because there are varying degrees of "self hosted" vs. "cloud hosted". This is a Next.js app hosted on Render.com, which is a managed VPS offeri…
