How do you feel about matrix? I've heard it as a counter point to the point you made but never really looked into it.

Very cool! I've been thinking a lot about how to do this in a good cross platform way for tab history on a browser I've been building ( https://synth.app ). I think a major issue is that pinching is very necessary to cha

Agreed. They're harder to debug, MITM, trace, etc. As a silver lining: I have been less worried recently seeing that most of the adoption of http/2-3 (at least their odd features) have been at the edge. Most developers are still w

Let's be honest here. Curl to 98% of people is http/1 requests with some post params and maybe json body, with some custom headers. Most language standard libs (which might be using libcurl) can facilitate writing that relatively

Why do people act like governments are some benevolent entity that corporations must do favors for? It's like any other market. You create jobs, tax revenues and opportunities and different governments create incentives to lure them in

Agreed. The top comments on this thread are wrong, overconfident and silly. Read the article people.

Citation needed. Show me a Makefile + IDE combination that executed code by simply opening a file. I think you’re missing the language server part of this.

Thanks! Looking forward to you trying it!

We ( https://synth.app ) do something similar to tab suspender with some slight modifications. My browser CPU/memory usage has dropped significantly and it’s really noticeable. One thing we learned is hot-swapping screenshots

It’s a great tool. It wouldn’t work in this case would it? Also, IIRC it checks types, doesn’t just strip (sometimes I prefer to just run the thing and do my type checking at the IDE/build level). Also still leaves the multiple tools p

Curious. When will JS tooling ecosystem support executing typescript by stripping the type information? Are there any plans to add generic soft type annotations to the spec? It’d be great to write these in TS without changing the runtime to

Surely you’re not going to make me spell out for you why comparing a little window widget in JavaScript with features of the Windows operating system, isn’t helpful just because there was a soft analogy in the title. Surely, you could’ve se

Or, you know, it’s little cool window panes for the web and not a clone of Windows’ window system... Does this person owe you something?

No problem. It is. I an curious how you feel about that. The engine is a bit agnostic of the rendering layer (we will have a similarly powerful iOS app at some point too).

Thanks -- Yes, full time! It's been the only browser installed on my computer the last few months. We have a bunch of friends using it exclusively but are still polishing a things for a broader release.

I can't wait to see what comes out of the channels/goroutine generic packages! Given go's culture it would be really interesting what they deem should make the cut and what shouldn't.

Wonderful and very well written, thanks! I too experimented with a p2p golang webchat setup. All the jargon was confusing and very hard to look up. This post has already given me much more clarity!!

This felt genuine. But I must admit, asking someone launching something if they're looking for a job rubbed me the wrong way. :shrug:

A few months ago, I swapped my iTerm with Alacritty (another Rust based project) and have been really happy with how snappy it is. I highly recommend it. Looking forward to trying this as a replacement for my tmux setup. I like the idea of
