The biggest nuisance aspect for me is when it is trying to do things that the LSP can do 100% correctly. Almost surely it is my tooling setup and the LLM is squashing LSP stuff. Seeing Copilot (or even Cursor) suggesting methods or paramete

I’ve never understood how John Gruber presents himself as a connoisseur of fine UX and typography, and then for decades publishes a bland, often difficult-to-read site.

I understand the perspective and generally have the same stance. But, a subtlety is that you know that "user425712" (made up) is you, and you can see your contributions being upvoted, quoted, discussed, your overall karma increa

Appreciate the thoughts on this. I've been very conflicted about this topic lately. I'm an old Vim programmer, but I've leapt into AI-assistance earnestly. First it was out of curiosity and some amazement at how well they wor

I fell victim to the line offered by certain indie devs along the line of, "Sure, it's hard to get a big piece of the pie, but with a BILLION users even a small piece is significant." I'm seriously considering a simple w

I'll say, this has been the worst part of my little indie dev adventure. I knew I'd be uncomfortable with a lot of it, but I also didn't realize how flat out bad I am at it. I've spent so much time fiddling with keywords

Nice. My son likes the YouTube videos of these sorting demos and I’m sure he’ll get into this too.

I so miss the basements of my midwest youth and early adulthood. They were the place for projects. I built so much. My west coast home since 2010 doesn't have a basement, and we've not much interior space for projects (esp when

That makes sense. The mug version of Ember ( https://ember.com/products/ember-mug-2 ) is open on top, which seems like a fancy Bluetooth version of an old-school mug heater. I could see the sealed one (the "Cup&quot

The old (maybe incorrect) advice I was always told was that continuing to heat the coffee fouled the taste, hence the recommendation to use an insulated mug/thermos as opposed to a Mr. Coffee style warmed carafe. What makes this gadget

Aren't banks sort of the poster children for legacy practices though? Only works with this or that browser, here are some weird password rules, yes I have an SVGA monitor, no I can't search older than 90 days, etc. I'm used t

We don’t even need to ditch the electoral college, but "just" get the states to more proportionately assign their electors, as Nebraska and Maine have done. But good luck with that, too. Can you imagine trying to convince, for exa

Trying to build a chess club management app for our school/district. It's mostly basic CRUD, though it's an avenue to learn Svelte & SvelteKit. I'm becoming more involved with the club and can't stand that every

Not specific to this update, but I wanted to chime in with just how useful Claude has been, and relatively better than ChatGPT and GitHub copilot for daily use. I've been pro for maybe 6 months. I'm not a power user leveraging the

I've got a less robust version of this (also as Ansible -> Hetzner) that I've toyed with. I'm often tempted to progress it, but I've realized it is a distraction. I say that about me, and not too negatively. I know th

Definitely considering a dedicated Postgres VPS. I've not looked yet, but I'd like to locate a decent cookbook around this. I've installed Postgres on a server before for playing around, and it was easy enough. But there are

I'm currently using SQLite + Litestream with one app, though it's strictly Litestream as a backup/safety net and I'd be manually standing the thing back up if it came to building the server anew, as that's not autom

I'm always curious what folks use for their database for things like this. Even though I like SQLite--a lot--my preference has become that the app is generally separate and mostly stateless. Almost always the data is the most important

I think they’re saying that instead of having to try, for example, an iOS app by downloading it from the App Store, they prefer to visit a URL.

Learn skimming? I say this as a old person who actually had "skimming" and "scanning" (different things!) as part of my elementary reading curriculum. We even had to practice skimming the whole (printed) NYT in 5 minutes

That’s a name I remember from my youth. I became pretty interested in all these curiously named file transfer protocols (Xmodem, Zmodem, Kermit, bimodem, etc.) and learned what I could from poring over microfiche archives of magazines and p

My guess (and it's just that), is that a role on newish, high potential project like this would be quite something to land for the right person (i.e. they're already sold on Zig), and some reasonable funding allowing them to not h

We're seeing (and contributing to, if I'm honest) this parenting mindset that you have to keep kids busy to "keep them out of trouble", thus the schedules get loaded up with organized activities. At least one outcome is
