What are "mini-apps" anyway? The little games you have to play on full-screen ads? Apple setting the stage for their own ad expansion?

That was just for the news headlines, nuclear isn't and never has been, "practical". Look on the bright side, so much taxpayer money will go into this, it's probably going to make someone richer.

Apple doesn’t make anything that’s “just <standard protocol>”. Something needs to make it very expensive and feel exclusive… Yes, you can have AirPods with noise cancellation, but you need a 1k€ iPhone to go with that.

They’re being slammed, the DMA is not going away. Just a few weeks ago, Apple had their latest court hearing. https://fsfe.org/news/2025/news-20251015-01.en.html

Nothing greenlit in a “closed-door EU working group session” can become law. These things need to go through all phases of legislation including the approval of parliament. So yes, if you don’t like chat control, talk to your MEPs and stop

Forgejo’s agent is brilliant to be honest. It’s a very well contained service, written in Go and builds in practically anything. Even before it was supported, I was able to setup a couple of my old Macs to become agents for building iOS app

Indeed. Very refreshing to see this approach. Also, Forgejo is a brilliant choice, I hope the talks continue.

If you tell this to someone who has never used LLMs/AI they may be curious. I have though. I also understand how the technology works and that you will have to read those research papers yourself anyway, verify every source, check ever

No, they’re examples of misuse of LLMs - “sometimes correct” is not a replacement for a search engine or a translator. Remember, Google search used to actually find you things before they shifted to replacing results with “somewhat random b

When you self host you also learn how to backup. It’s not complicated actually, you should look into it.

I bet Microsoft is sad not because people can’t push, but because the training data for Copilot has slowed down. PS: None of our 40+ engineers felt anything, our self hosted Forgejo is as snappy as ever.

I think what has changed mainly is that today we have tools, languages and entire ecosystems that exist only as means to support someone’s product line. Take Swift for example. A giant gatekeeper of a corp decided to make it the only (reaso

Because no US corp can promise you true E2EE. Even an app like Signal - are you sure the version you're getting from the App Store is always the one with "unbreakable E2EE"?

But made by a corp in the “Extend” phase of embrace-extend-extinguish. No thanks. Fanboys love a new tool but let’s for once look ahead a bit before jumping in.

It really does. The pet food store app asks me for my cat’s allergies and medical conditions. Someone needs to be responsible if they fuck it up. Same with self driving cars - the whole idea of “engineering” is about quality and responsibil

Swift is a “may you live in interesting times” kind of deal. Not the kind of stress you want in your day job.

You're right, and it's ok to lean on experience to anticipate certain constraints for a project. My point really is that is just not an absolute default and it should not be included as a "general guideline" or recommend

My comment is that this is a choice that should be made for each project depending on what you’re building - does your model require features not supported by SQLite or Postgres etc. > Unless you have a really really simple model and app

I'm not sure why your architecture needs to be complex to support CI pipelines and proper workflow for change management. And some of these guidelines have grown into satus quo common recipes. Take your starting database for example, t
