I think it's an incredibly common use case in places where biking is the default transit mode. I like biking for exercise, but I don't necessarily want to be a sweaty mess after my commute for work, or when lugging my kids around,

IMO a huge missed opportunity for these indirect-drive bikes is marketing them as a home exercise bike 2-in-1. If the pedals are going into a generator with fancy software to emulate the feel of a bike, there's nothing stopping the bik

This feels like another one of those stairstep ML/AI advances that makes computers behave eerily more like humans. We tend to think in images rather than plaintext, and here we are discovering it's more efficient for a computer to

This might be hot take, but I really wish Elixir had more variety in its ecosystem -- particularly in its client-side ergonomics. I absolutely love the language, the way it fits into the Erlang runtime, and especially Jose's stewardshi

I didn't get the sense that this article was trying to help people rationalize away social anxiety. Rather, it seemed much more that it was trying to get the socially anxious to accurately assess the nature (and effects) of their react

BEAM's concurrency model makes it the ideal runtime for web servers IMO. Similarly, the ubiquity of JS in the browser makes it an excellent runtime to target as well. I agree though that it would be amazing to compile Gleam code into u

How does brake dust compare to tire dust in terms of quantity? My understanding was that most of the black soot that accumulates near roadways is mostly tire particulate.

Excellent read! This is the first time I feel like I finally have a good handle on the "what" & "why" of RSCs. It has also sparked a strong desire to see RSCs compared and contrasted with Phoenix LiveView. The distin

IMO talking about the “heaviness” of popular web frameworks is way too simplistic to be actually meaningful. How light or heavy an app feels, in my experience, has very little to do with initial bundle size, and far more to do with how adep

Somehow didn't know this --I can't help but wonder why. The effort to make JS work on the server has been much more successful than any attempt to make server languages work on the client. Nothing jumps out to me as an obvious tec

I feel like Gleam's ability to compile to BEAM and JS is underutilized. With how many people in the React/Typescript ecosystem are super excited about full stack type safety, this feature of Gleam feels like it's flying under

This isn't competing with normal desktops. Better to think of it as a competitor to Mac Studio & Nvidia Digits, which are much less repairable by comparison. The soldered memory is an unfortunate reality of these "unified"

Repair-friendly form factor for a "Unified Memory" platform. For $2000, you get 128 of system RAM, 96 of which is addressable as VRAM. Only ways of getting 96GB of VRAM in a desktop are to either: 1. Drop ~$5000 on a (very non-upg

Discovered this time-management/todo-tracking system by way of Ben Vallack's YouTube channel[0]. It's been working well for me thus far -- I quite like the simplicity, and the brain-hacking aspect is surprisingly effective. [

The biggest difference in my (admittedly limited) experience, is that you need to start a "podman machine" before you can start running containers. This is architecturally different from Docker's use of a daemon, in ways I&#x

I hope this kind of thing can shoot up the priority queue! Battery-stealing and generally janky behavior is likely the main reason folks stop using a piece of software. Thanks for your work, and for talking about the issue on a public forum

Agreed. On re-read, my prior comment sounds almost negative towards React's lack of opinions. That couldn't be further from the truth! While I appreciated having a path laid out for me when I stated out, 10 years end I much prefer
