Okay, I'm gonna go work on something good. Will return with questions.

Why would I read something you couldn't be bothered to write?

> Not slop, though. What would you call 2k commits in 2 months by a single committer if not slop?

You're right to be suspicious: it's slop.

This appears to be vibecoded but not disclosed as such. 2k commits from a single author starting from June 1st with really long commit messages and source code comments. The GitHub org has 19 additional projects that are all recently create

What are the best books/papers/blog posts to learn about Morphic's architecture? I'm not a user of any Smalltalk implementation but I'd like to learn more as the Smalltalk approach to UI is very interesting.

The moment I see anything LLM-generated it's an instant close tab.

Posts like this remind me how much JavaScript could benefit from something like Lisp's quasiquote. JSX is a terrible creation but templating in JS is pretty unpleasant without quotation operators. That said, I think Mithril's &#x2

This project is 5 days old going by the commit history and seems to be entirely vibecoded.

I'm not sure what they mean by "native" here but (ref extern) is for host references, JS or otherwise. The i31 type is for "immediate" values, things that can fit in 31 bits and thus don't need to be allocated

We're so close to a full circle moment. Next up is "npm stable", a curated set of packages (a "distribution", say) known to work well that are supported for a couple of years with security patches.

I sympathize with the developers. Mobile OS push notifications are a big impediment to the adoption of p2p technology and it's hard to do anything novel in the chat space because there's a million chat apps.

Hoot is also not a 2 day old vibecoded project.

Such a refreshing take after all the marketing nonsense from Bun. Zig is a glimmer of hope in a world of slop.

This was a nice little experience report. Most of the deficiencies in Hoot can be blamed on me. > The error messages can be cryptic. Apologies! Happy to receive issue reports about specific things that we can prioritize. > It's e

The OCapN group is actively working on a milestone for 1.0, the first interop target. It's getting close! https://github.com/ocapn/ocapn/milestone/2

I was wandering around the expo floor at PAX East last year when I noticed Earthion at the Limited Run demo arcade. I had a lot of fun playing it on the floor so I bought the full game on Steam. It's a quality shmup! For me the difficu

Sure am glad I moved everything off of Gitlab awhile ago. Trainwreck of a company.

It's my favorite comedy of all time. It's been going for over 10 years with a lot of little spin offs along the way. For those that want to take the plunge you can watch the first first ten seasons, Oscar specials, Decker, etc. fo

On one hand atproto has content-addressed storage and portable identity that AP still lacks (but could have!), on the other hand atproto is far more centralized. The data layer is decentralized but everything on top is effectively centraliz

It couldn't get past a vote in the Wasm community group to advance from phase 1 to phase 2. Here's a quote from the "requiem for stringref" article mentioned above: > 1. WebAssembly is an instruction set, like AArch64

This is my main confusion, too! I have an existing Wasm GC language implementation and I'm not sure how to reconcile it with the component model.
