The fact that tsz can compile to wasm might actually give you an even more interesting feature that tsgo can't (yet): using the type checker for data validation at runtime.

Very interesting stuff. Are any builds of Sail still available for use?

My view is that side projects are not meant to be finished at all. Ideally they shouldn’t be more than an outlet for scratching a creative itch, and like any creative project, if your main motivation shifts from a personal goal to something

Good grief that codebase is absolute hell, almost too good of an example of accidental complexity.

Agreed. Lerner has an unique way of digging into solipsism that's truly genuine and comical (whereas I feel Knausgård and most of the autofiction crowd's stuff comes across as glorified navel-gazing). It's no wonder he's

I don’t see the need to buy it back other than for boosting the brand narrative.

I don’t know how to phrase this without sounding like an arrogant idiot but seriously: what are people actually programming with agents + worktrees + harnesses + tasks + skills + whatnot? Most workflows I see people adopt involve large amou

I stopped looking for fonts after I got comfortable tweaking the metric settings of Iosevka. My current setup exports a set of really compressed cuts (more compressed than Pragmata Pro) which I've always found hard to come by.

You have to realise every single UI up to that point was solid white or grey and unable to access alpha channels. And the fact that they expanded upon this design “language” with the transparent Imac cases made it all cohesive and 2YK hip.

This type of slop comment is somehow worse than spam. >After a week, scores of iterations, it can reverse engineer any website Cool, let’s see the proof.

Build steps are realistically speaking inevitable because of minification, tree-shaking, etc. which is not even a big deal these days with tools like esbuild. For a "true" DOM-first component reactive system just use Web Component

I've always remapped ctrl+r to U as u (undo) and U (redo) feel more consistent with other shortcuts. I suspect this already is very common.

How is this different than simply committing between changes? Or even asking the agent to commit changes as it edits files.

Comparing something like next.js to other frameworks doesn’t make much sense anymore given that most webdevs choose DX and easy deployment above anything else. Vercel’s growth is proof of that.
