Awesome work. I'm really interested in the parametric-driven recipe card. I wanted to do something like this for bread recipes where you can tweak the hydration / salt levels to alter the recipe but still get a traditional recipe

For me the price of components rising increases the barrier to entry into enthusiast computer hobbies. If they stabilise at the current price long-term then I'll be pretty sad. As for coding in particular, I think it's natural to

Not sure there is much of a point in reviewing a port of this size. It has >1000 instances of `unsafe` and uses the same patterns as the zig code according to Jarred. It feels like a vibe-ported version of what the TypeScript team are do

Is this when you add a commit through VSC or does the editor add some git hook?

Sure but that turns my IDE into a text editor, where as Zed is a great backup IDE.

I've always thought of Zed as a good Sublime Text alternative. I can tinker with and potentially break my Neovim config, but I'll have Zed as a backup for when I need to do a quick edit. Their Vim mode is the best I've used o

Probably just a legacy thing. Might as well have a vanilla cake trigger an age check for all the good it'll do.

I've found that nowadays I largely like it for the taste (which often surprises non-beer drinkers) and so I'm quite pleased that non-alcoholic options are becoming more widespread. My main wish is for non-alcoholic craft beer to b

I'll be excited to buy one of these (or the newer iteration) if component prices ever return to pre-2025 levels. AUD$800 for 32GB RAM is insanity (which is of course not within their control, but my purchasing impulses are - at least f

Bonus: if you pick cal.zone you can have fun with pizza puns.

Unless I've misunderstood something, the Cloudflare price is like 3x of AWS SES. It probably won't matter for small scale products, but it definitely makes a difference at a large scale.

Excited to try it out. I'm perhaps less excited about having to wrap RSC's in special functions, but given the Query example I suppose it makes sense. I'll reserve judgement until I've properly tried it out. How does thi

Zoom out a bit though, and you quickly realise it's not the norm. There is vastly more farm land throughout the country and Hjolderup is the exception, not the rule.

For decades I've been pointing to Denmark (partly out of national pride) as a successful model for renewables as Australia dragged its feet on the issue due to fossil fuel industry lobbying. The positive I take from the article is that

Not quite - it totally takes over your branching strategy and locks you into GitButler.

Is InstantDB no longer about local-first or is the AI angle just a marketing thing?

Often but not always, and if they're a solo developer then maintenance might not be too bad as they might be able to keep all the logic in their head. I'm not advocating for that kind of approach, but if it lets people focus on th

Since it's a multi-discipline craft it's hard to get good at every aspect for indie development, focusing most of the effort on one or two aspects. I think the programming aspect for indie games typically matters very little unles

Some fantastic hobbies involve learning a new skill that'll serve you in the long run outside of tech, or teach you something interesting that will last after you drop the hobby. I personally love making things, especially food-related

It is very rare that I've come across a well-defined ticket. The most well-defined tickets were the ones I wrote myself, and even those had gaps because I wasn't typically the product owner. It's the same story that it's

It's not my kind of workflow but you can download a graphical client like Neovide, which I think has options for opening directly from your file browser. I typically have a terminal-heavy workflow so it's very rare that I'm b

It's still not super intuitive with a non-trivial config and plugins. I had enough things that hooked into LSP (Mason, linting, inlay hints, etc.) that I needed to spend a couple of weekend afternoons moving my configs over. For a lot

What a time to be alive. It runs surprisingly smooth on Firefox/Linux and doesn't appear to put much strain on my 9070 XT.

Hopefully this means less misinformation and slop on social media, but maybe that's just wishful thinking.

The government of the day did not and never used the word "tax". They essentially turned pollution into a commodity, which could be traded between companies who wanted to pollute more and rewarded companies who transitioned to cle

In Australia the answer is political lobbying, without a doubt. We had an emissions trading scheme[0] in 2012 meant to help in a transition to clean energy sources that was aggressively lobbied against by Australia's largest polluters
