Hey, people who overuse AI to write — we can tell. I'm sorry you had to find out this way. Unchecked AI writing is only useful to AI.

There was a drunk guy on a bench cheering for our soccer team, and hitting a tambourine. I can't square the obnoxious loud atonal cheering with bringing a tambourine from home. It's a paradox.

I want this trend GONE. I’d assume it would have become annoying by now because it’s been around for a long time, but it’s almost as if it has GAINED strength… I’m looking at you, IntersectionObserver ಠ_ಠ

1.) Videos about ONGOING events where reporters say that they are ongoing, you knew that from the title, but to justify the video they bring on people to ask them “what can you tell us about this” and the guests always say basically “nothing yet, duh”. 🧵 youtu.be/56EyKNjhUDY?...

Upon opening GitHub this modal popped open. Quite obtrusive. The contrast of the close button of immaculate. It's almost as if they don't want me to use it.

I used to consider my plugin npmx.dev/package/rema... to be such a silly hack that I considered advising people against using it. However, it turned out to be a much needed bridge, counting over 3M weekly downloads, and I'm very thankful for all the contributions ❤️

The worst thing about wanting to show how useful a dev tool is that I can't show it on a real product. I have to reinvent the problem on a demo project and pretend that it happened there, and the idea of that is very demotivating to me because I feel like much of the impact might be lost.

Never in a million years. Try again. I recommend that you finish your code review flow. You know, something that people actually need.

I’ve been taking the wrong dose of antidepressants because my doctor is intermittently perscribing me pills of different size. So that’s one more medication that I’ll have to stay vigilant about. I wonder if drug dealers will become more reliable.

There’s a fear that sleeping with a friend will ruin the friendship. I did lose a good friend this way, it was very sad and I truly regret it. But for other friendships it didn’t affect at all, I’d even say it made some of them stronger. So would that one friendship be ruined anyway?

I’m switching my Node.js version management from “tj/n” to pnpm v11+: pnpm runtime set node <version> --global pnpm installs Node.js without Corepack or even npm and npx! I’m probably going to do this for Bun as well. What are the benefits of this? 1/2

“Low poly” is when you’re also going out with other people, but being super casual about it. “We’re trying out low poly for now”

I thought Firefox would be my all-in-one, but it's pretty heavy on the CPU. Back to Safari for browsing — feels lightweight and supports fingerprint for Apple stuff. Firefox has interesting devtools, though! Very performant and refreshing after Chrome's heavy orientation around Core Web Vitals.

Ok this is getting annoying. Users generally don't need to know that something isn't available unless they try to reach for it.

Why does anyone still use OpenAI shit after Adam Raine? That was an instant switch for me.

As a very emotional person I always missed talking about feelings with boys/men. Straight men by default cannot talk about this stuff, mostly sports, video games, booze and IT. I remember opening up to a colleague, but it was really off-putting to him and he said “this was too much”.

For those of you trying out tsgo don't forget to switch to tsgo LSP as well! Not only is it fast AF, but you also remove discrepancies between what your IDE is showing you and what CLI is telling you. Might seem obvious, but I forgot to do that myself.

youtube.com/shorts/abuGc... I miss these old timey doorbells so much ❤️ As a person who is extra sensitive to loud noises I find modern doorbells fucking insanse. But most people don’t seem to mind much, so no incentive to lower the default volume 😔

I need a less ambitious Claude model.

- Chrome Developer team posted a polyfill for Prompt API - we said that we didn’t want it because Chrome rushed with the implementation - they deleted the post I went shopping for a non-Chromium browser, and Firefox is pretty cool. Seems to open faster than Chrome, good devtools, privacy, VPN…

My colleague vibe-coded a large feature, and to review all of it including subsequent reviews I spent about 12h because I had to be vigilant. I found a lot of mistakes, it took my colleague all day to fix them, making him wonder whether AI actually saved him any time there. Bingo.

Ever struggled to get heading tags right in includes/components? headingoffset could be the answer…

We've shared a few things to help you get away from big tech over time but this specific event (and the resources) looks great. di.day/en

They said “stop doomscrolling and start Claude Coding” 🤦‍♂️ Omg, give me a break, literally!

Anthropic: with Dispatch you can now continue Claude Code from your phone! Me: yeah but why? Anthropic: you know, when you’re walking your dog, or even during a bio break! Me: if I’m touching grass or if nature calls I’m going to want to continue my Claude Code session…? AI burnout right there ☝️

An FBI agent told me to my face once that there were so many moving pieces, that I would likely end up with more charges than my trafficker. Full disclosure, this is the america ive always known.

Whoever thinks that cats don’t give a f has never owned a cat.

"If you haven't figured out how to use [AI] by now, it's a signal [to hiring managers] about how you learn" This is quite a statement ... and yes, this is a sub-skeet. Being an AI advocate should be a red flag...

When you REALLY want to keep up with the competition.

Polyane will add another great emulation to their arsenal, this one’s useful for a11y! See the difference between using px and rems before your very eyes ✨ I also recommend reading: www.joshwcomeau.com/css/surprisi...

An excellent explanation that well-known people aren't distancing themselves from Trump because they changed their mind, they're just protecting their brand. Similar to with Eppstein, Trump asked "are we still talking about this creep?" but, of course, Trump doesn't think he was a creep at all.

This is just going to keep happening, just like Tailwind 💔 There was a strong appeal and charm to learning from people, and then knowing that stuff forever. AI outright says “X doesn’t exist, I made it up”, so the focus moved from learning to getting things done. Knowledge is becoming a nuisance!

So GitHub now displays PRs without comments, no loading indicator or anything, and then they suddenly appear? I would honestly prefer a slower page load if I have to choose.

I heard domestic abuse for the first time and reported it. I'm not sure if it was the right thing to do. Violence is so scary even when it's not happening to me 😰

AI and CEOs

I watched it again recently… such a good movie, damn, I really enjoyed myself. Have a friend over and go down the memory lane.

When job candidates submit tasks with tests written by AI… why?? a) I’m gonna find out, and b) I’m interviewing YOU, if you don’t know how to write tests, either learn or don’t write them! Is this what AI does to devs now? Less and less curiosity about what anything does anymore?

Yeah it doesn't really work that way.

I secretly wished for a Network tab in Polypane. That wish has come true 😯 They did their own spin on it, categorized requests into origins, included Core Web Vitals… it's an exciting fresh take ✨

Two photos. Same room. Same flags. Same astronauts. In one, the President stands with them, smiling, centered, human. In the other, the President sits scowling, rambling, diminished. Four astronauts. Two presidents. And the faces tell you everything.

Jean Claude van Code

Wow, Wayward is some progressive-ass show. I assume it was personal for Mae Martin to have a non-binary character, but it's great to see one where it's also not about gender identity, it's just about whatever else is going on. I think gender identity being portrayed so casually is very valuable.

Goddamn, something that would have been difficult to approach before — because when I'm manually extracting hundreds of icons my brain starts gasping and it's harder and harder to make decisions — is now totally doable with AI within just two days. And I still get to watch TV!

Claude Dispatch notifications popped out of nowhere a couple of times now. I guess I have to figure out how to turn them off… I really don’t want to have to do that… Claude is saying “glad you’re here” but I’m very much not there, hence the notification! This is what I’d expect from ad-driven apps.

Reading file foo.tsx, bar.json… Ok, now I have a clear picture! Doing some more work… Ok, now I know what to do! Doing whatever… Ok, now I can totally start! Oh, I guess not because I'm still doing more…

Take a first look at the new @vitest.dev Browser Mode's trace viewer 👀 Design is not final 😄 Thank you, @hiogawa.bsky.social for working on it! main.vitest.dev/guide/browse...

I remember saying “fuck, Trump is president”, and my friend saying “great, that means I won $500” The outcome is not fine just because you won money. Prediction markets are weird as shit. - youtu.be/0_ItmnR9r_g?... by @somemorenews.bsky.social - youtu.be/ZN4njIQcSR4?... by @lastweektonight.com

"I'm sorry" means either: 1. "I apologize" or 2. "I really feel for you", right? For some reason when I say that I'm sorry people keep saying "it wasn't your fault" when I was clearly referring to the 2nd meaning. (It couldn't have been my fault!) Anybody else has this problem?
