I went to a concert last night and wore a T-shirt I made that said "Fuck Warner Bros." The band was j*Davey. Warner Bros signed them over fifteen years ago and then shoved them into a box. The show last night, fortunately for me,

I've been spending the last week casually looking at strudel.cc. They have a notation that looks similar (basically a JavaScript port of the Haskell version). I like this, but I'm curious why I would want to use this over strudel.

I'm really excited about Ghostty (and Zig mostly because of my exposure via ghostty). Until ghostty I hadn't really considered that a terminal would be a catalyst for innovation and even startups. But, libghostty is REALLY fascina

I 100% agree with everything you said. But, when I use open source, I assume user support == "me supporting it". That often means reading the docs, reviewing source code, (and lately, asking claude...) I'm just saying I want

This is so incredible, musically, visually and didactically. Absolutely amazing. Absolutely amazing.

Reading this article makes me want to point out the difference between commercial music software and open source software. What stands out here was that Eno used very simple sounds and looped them. This was not a complicated rube-goldberg m

The comments here make you think about whether this is an issue or not. But, regardless, I wish that Amazon execs were literally shackled to their data centers. If they move to avoid taxation, like when Bezos moved to Florida, at least they

Are you building MacOS apps? More specifically, are you doing code signing and notarization and stamping within CI? If so, is this written up somewhere? I really struggled with getting that working on GitLab. I did have it working, but was

That's so brilliant. Wow. I'm struggling to wrap my brain around how they not only support OCI (docker) but also APK (alpine) and APT (debian) packages. That's a very cool feature.

Wait, forgejo offers a built-in container registry? How does that work? I don't see that in the admin section at all.

I setup actions yesterday. There are a few tiny rough edges, but it is definitely working for me. I'm using it to build my hugo blog which "sprinklylls" in a Svelte app, so it needs to have nodejs + hugo and a custom orchestr

I've been messing around with GitLab as a self hosted alternative for a few years. I do like it, but it is resource intensive! For the past few days I've been playing with Forgejo (from the Codeberg people). It is fantastic. The b

Did you make up A-Lot-AI? Can I suggest "A-Lott-a-AI"? If you did, this is the greatest thing created in 3 ABC ("After Bullshit ChatGPTification"; ChatGPT launched in 2022.). NB: Since ChatGPT is basically the new Messi

I can't for the life of me figure out who would fund this, other than Saudi oil money or Russian petro-oligarchs, both so they can whitewash or launder their cash. This just makes no sense to me otherwise.

The shitty lesson here is that this crime will never be remembered as a crime, but as a missed opportunity. This will mean it will happen again. The people that perpetrated this will learn they can attempt more of this without consequence,

This is terrific writing and what we lose when we pretend AI can do terrific writing. The biggest problem we face right now is that the large majority of people are terrible writers and can't recognize why this is awful. It really felt

That's a good point. Email is much worse than slack. But I still think it is impossible to manage all the things happening in slack. And the expectation is that it was said in slack, so you should know about it! Whereas, I definitely g

100%. I also moved to VSCode years ago. Then, I got disillusioned by the performance, and by M$ telemetry. Zed is so much better in so many ways if you have to go with a GUI for all those reasons.

by xrd 11mo ago
You make some good points, and I need to revisit Zed+AI to see where things are at. This probably proves you are a better developer than me. But, also, after reading your comments, I'm just not sure I need an "editor" anymore

by xrd 11mo ago
I love Zed. I, mostly, love the direction they are taking the editor in. But. There are now two times I see Zed going in the wrong direction. The AI integration was one. This feels like the wrong direction again. I never really liked the AI

Fascinating stuff. For some reason, this reminds me the way video encoders compress video: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_compression_picture_type... It makes me wonder if you could use a similar technique (iframe

Consider this: you could, given enough time. You probably haven't had management that gave you that time. Or demanded you take the time. Writing things down takes a lot more time than you think. It is hard work. You get better with pra
