guys, this is how you lose the time war

Got to talk at @aidotengineer.bsky.social conf last week about the need for collaborative AI engineering. All our current coding agents are single player. We're trying to scale up individual productivity, but creating tons of alignment problems in the process. We have no good tools for...

i was annoyed that this isn't explained how i want in the docs so i wrote my own mini-guide to publishing lexicons:

We’re still hiring someone to come own the video medium for @ngrok.com. This level of unhinged behaviour extremely encouraged.

You can use alt text just because it helps disabled people. What’s so wrong about that?

“The researcher found out about this success by receiving an unexpected email from the model while eating a sandwich in a park.”

Reminder: including alt-text on your images is helpful in many ways! It increases accessibility, can add context/detail, makes search more effective, & can improve your reach (a lot of us won’t re-share images without alt-text). If you set it as required in accessibility settings, you can’t forget!

This is so, so well-articulated.

sounds like it’s time to take local models seriously

Same graph, but with the time series expanded to three years. Honestly, it's a minor miracle that a social media company not backed by oligarchs or the state, with no attempt at establishing a revenue stream, and with multiple established competitors, had so much growth in such short time

*tries to teleport to waffle house* ... sir, this is a wendy's

"It's unlikely that he would've been able to, given Waffle House's sealing jutsu," said Hiruzen Sarutobi, who holds the Sandaime Chair of Ninjutsu Studies at Leaf University. "But some Sharingan users have been able to use unconventional space-time techniques, so we can't rule it out."

Warning to open source maintainers: the Axios supply chain attack started with some very sophisticated social engineering targeted at one of their developers simonwillison.net/2026/Apr/3/s...

Another really important point is that they didn't explore the cultural context of the weights. An LLM trained more extensively on non-Western literature would probably have a strikingly different emotional landscape than Anthropic's models.

I've just relaunched CSS Demystified! Rebuilt from the ground up, on my own custom platform, and here to help you start writing CSS with confidence 😊 thecascade.dev/courses/css-...

me: decides to sell house because I'm tired of this never ending slowgoing trainwreck DIY renovation for 3 years also me: oh now I have to finish the entire DIY renovation in 6 weeks to avoid financial ruin 🥲

The cool folks from the Eurosky team just brought you a new site: eurosky.tech, portal to the Atmosphere. I'd say it's the crispest explanation so far of what the Atmosphere brings: 1. one account 2. that works with a bunch of apps, and 3. your data from all apps is yours, portable, interoperable.

Rather than the same old boring internet pranks, I thought I'd build something more fun this April Fools. CSS or BS. Can you tell your CSS properties names from BS? www.keithcirkel.co.uk/css-or-bs

That’s one hell of a cover…..

Oh so now copyright matters.

Its unsurprising AI is so divisive on Bluesky. We're at an intersection of devs – for whom Claude is a useful tool used by most – creatives and artists where AI is bad and damaging, and blue wave who just see it as sama and grok. We're arguing about different things from very different perspectives.

i think it’s very funny / unfortunate that people who would appreciate what’s being done are mostly on the other site, while the other site’s architecture would have never allowed such technology to be made without special first party access. spectacular mismatch

I built a visual explainer of the CSS Cascade, the algorithm that determines the "winning value" from a list of competing declarations. It's built on work by @bram.us and @miriam.codes. cascade.arpit.codes I wrote about how it came together on my blog: arpit.blog/notes/2026/0...

CSS nesting is now Baseline 🎉 Write nested selectors directly in CSS — just like Sass, but natively. .card { color: black; &:hover { color: blue; } .title { font-weight: bold; } } No preprocessor needed. Learn more 👇 developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/...

JJK Season 3 finale is the best episode of the entire series, and potentially the best shounen anime episode I have ever watched.

Lettermatic ✕ GitHub Next: the inside story of Monaspace, a truly groundbreaking advancement for how we display code. We knew that Lettermatic would go deep, but we were still amazed by their level of knowledge and craft. See their case study below, and get the fonts at monaspace.githubnext.com

The Brazilian flag is one of the best, this is just a fact, but what is going on with all these stars in the blue circle? Why are they scattered like this, unlike the field of stars of other flags (eg US)? Which stars are these and why these? EXPLAINING BRAZIL FLAG STARS: history and astronomy 🧵

important if you use Vercel for web projects they've updated their ToS to allow using your data to train AI models, and free plans are opted in to that by default you can opt out under Settings > General > Data Preferences

"A Resume.org survey of 1,000 hiring managers found that 59% say they emphasize AI’s role in layoffs because it “is viewed more favorably by stakeholders than saying layoffs or hiring freezes are driven by financial constraints.” Only 9% said AI had fully replaced any roles." /3

NOT NOW, MYSTERIOUS LARGE STEEL CYLINDER

"AI can write the code if you figure out what needs coding but coding is 5% of the problem" 🎯

A story in four parts. 😭

“i don’t let an AI think and make decisions for me, i do my own thinking and decision making” the average human outsources their own thinking & decision making in unfathomable, countless, and unseen ways every single day… well before LLMs emerged — it’s not a simple binary case of is it good or bad

One CSS property just killed every auto-resize textarea script you've ever written. Seriously, one line. The property is field-sizing: content

It's looking increasingly like these guys thought that if they could wreak more death and destruction than the other side then they would be respected as strong powerful men and they would "win" and that would make them big important heroes. Very possibly they had no rationale deeper than that.

myth: LLM-assisted coding means everyone is forced to use The Popular Framework forever reality: agents will happily migrate your entire app to The Good Framework inertia is a powerful drug but we are entering a world without moats, plan accordingly strawberrybrowser.com/blog/react-t...

Human beings are worth more than the fucking tech and tools we use.

The idea that anyone will be “left behind” because of their particular skills and experience, and become “irrelevant” is revolting. “Individuals and interactions over processes and tools” Those words matter now more than ever.
