After reading the homepage and the docs homepage, I still don't know what it is. What's the key API difference that lets you write only 10% compared to React? What's the "hello world"?

I wish this "connect to my DB" architecture was more common in SaaS. I don't want to write synchronization code or extra APIs. Synchronization always gets out of sync anyway. I just want to set appropriate permissions for wha

> Traditional computation closely aligns with System 2 thinking: It’s formulaic and inflexible Hmm, "formulaic and inflexible" is exactly how I'd describe System 1, not 2. Am I misunderstanding their analogy?

This makes so much more sense than langchain! I read all the docs for langchain, but the abstractions seemed broken and it wasn't obvious what was happening at the LLM level. In contrast, I grokked the entire llm_agents API within 5 mi

Why do these systems use hash-based fingerprinting? Wouldn't it be "better" to have a "browserspace vector", or "browser embedding"? So that if one fingerprint tactic fails in incognito, you don't com

This would be a good post, if only I could read any of those images on mobile. Substack, fix your damned user-scalable=0! Even clicking on the image doesn't provide any way of zooming in on it. Do they do any usability testing?

Oh hi, author here! I tend to agree on `hangIf3`. I have a habit of mixing in other kinds of puzzles. Sometimes they're fun, but sometimes they're irrelevant to the main point ... I'll rethink this one. p.s. thanks for the co
