I've seen this theory pop up a lot the past few weeks. So intriguing, so many questions! How big would the _outer_ black hole be? Would all the mass/energy we have in our universe have to correlate to the same amount of mass/

The challenge I often face is having an entire _mental model_ of what I want to build already crystallized in my head, but then the realization that it will take hours of coding to actually convert that to code... That can be incredibly dem

I unfortunately pay for Spotify. I also pay for Youtube premium, but I can't even switch to that because their music player is even worse than Spotify. I really miss the good old days of music players that were _packed_ with features.

I thought it was a good idea and liked using it. I do not see how the old "global" h1, h2, h3... system we still have to use is any better.

Looks very nice! Having said that: I severely hate content in this form, where you have to scroll like your life depends on it just to read a paragraph or two.

Claude Sonnet 3.7 really, really loves to rewrite tests so they'll pass. I've had it happen many times in a claude-code session, I had to add this to each request (though it did not fix it 100%) - Never disable, skip, or com

I use Deel to hire people internationally. It's mostly an EOR company. They promised a lot though, I once thought about moving my entire HR workflow to Deel (even for local employees), but quickly decided against it.

I've successfully used it to fix a few issues here and there, but it also manages to make some pretty stupid mistakes. A few times it even started rewriting tests in a way so that the wrong outcome would be seen as a pass.

Gnome also made it _a lot_ harder to override the default Adwaita theme in libadwaita applications. Not impossible, just very annoying. This happened together with a GTK UI redesign, turning it into yet another flat UI.

Took me a while to realize this wasn't a reimplementation of the Java VM. How have I never heard of this game before? And why does Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 1 use so many guns?

I never really considered Twitch to be a platform that _kept_ videos, only stream them to the viewer. If you're on Twitch and you want to make your video permanent, you have to upload it to Youtube. That's how most of the streamer
