I do have a question though, couldn't they just rewrite Claude Code in Rust, instead of acquiring Bun? 🤔

When did it become normal to express compute capacity using energy consumption units? It's like me saying that our team has grown to 560 calories.

subprime content crisis

The vibe of this screenshot actually made me remember how much I love to write software. It feels like a sane place, music, references to think and learn, the place where you are typing. It feels like a zen setup.

Trying to get used to Zellij and Helix at the same time. Feels a bit uncomfortable and overwhelming, but no pain no gain.

new demoscene where we tear down and rewrite a codebase by hand every year, to keep our tacit knowledge alive

I'm only writing Rust by hand this week. To keep my skills sharp. 🗡

Little update on my reflection adventures: I have extracted the core components of Pavex's compile-time reflection engine as a set of standalone crates! It serves as a preliminary step ahead of another release in the coming weeks 🛠️

I used to pick up new programming languages all the time. But since I learned Rust, I just stopped. There was no other language out there that got me curious. I know well and really like the ideas behind Clojure and Elixir for example, but I never pick them for new projects I work on.

**insert Dr. Strange meme of 14 million futures** Sometimes there is a very clear, but extremely narrow path to success.

GitHub again down? lubeno.dev still has a 100% uptime 💪

Coding agents still have a long way to go before they can compete with the best developers in their domains.

Bun is maintaining a Zig fork and not upstreaming their changes because Zig doesn't allow LLM-authored changes? I feel like I missed a huge drama in the OSS space. What is going on here?

I wrote a blog post about sandboxes, schedulers, and how we're scaling our infrastructure at @tensorlake.ai. Go check it out! www.tensorlake.ai/blog/startin...

Claude Design unlocks the project manager’s dream of making the button bigger without pushback. Half of your design team will be fired in a month, the design system and branding guidelines thrown in the trash, and the App Store ratings down one or two points in a few months time.

"It's not fun." - Luísa on using LLMs for coding

The act of insertion and removal provides a psychological gate between "starting", "doing" and "finishing". It is the opposite of The Eternal Scroll. It is the hero we need.

Didn't know @kolobara.com had a new project. The interface seems so nice!!

I was looking for where can I host my code in EU and found this lubeno.dev by @kolobara.com Looks really promising. 🤞

The US is on a speedrun to turn every market into gambling and remove as many protections as possible.

How about the AI does the planing and reviewing, and I just write the code?

Current status of the Strait of Hormuz dispute

I have used @jj-vcs.dev now for a few days. Damn, how could I work without it? Such a game changer, when using coding agents 🤯

Reinventing the Pull Request | Discussion

Good advice on #git commits chrismaiorana.com/git-commits-...

Can't wait to see Project Hail Mary in the cinema. I don't read much, but I couldn't put this book down.

Hand-crafted Rust Code 🦀

A lot of good ideas around code reviews and better pull requests ♥️ I would love to see some of them in @tangled.org too.

I don't know how and why, but we need to bring this back.

I wrote a blog post about pull requests, comprehension debt and Jujuts lubeno.dev/blog/reinven...

Big Purchases only happen on Big Computer. This is the law, I will not explain.

This week's deepdive hit a nerve. It's true: there are more and more signs that AI agents help increase *output* but they result in worse *quality.* Unless something changes. And something needs to change, clearly! The deepdive: newsletter.pragmaticengineer.com/p/are-ai-age...

Moving slowly is becoming a huge competitive edge.

I fixed my iron deficiency and feel so full of energy now! My brain just 10x-ed, don't even need the AI anymore.

me: uses password __password becomes part of training data__

Anyone using sandboxes? What are you doing with them?

Love Singer's philosophy: "A relentless pursuit of excellence". If I ever start again a software company, that's what I'm going for. "Everything is important" and "Design to delight" also hit close to my heart.

you know how everything is made out of plastic and feels like crap but still technically works we've been headed this way with software for a while but at least we used to be embarrassed by it now people are proud of how much they don't care

The nice thing about AI is that now I can get 10x more done before I get to the last 20%.

who is gonna bring back stateful CI i'm ready to spin up jenkins again

everybody realizes the layers of rigor being added to make agentic coding reliable is just reinventing waterfall from first principles, right? we all get that? i mean, i’m not knocking it, specs matter once outcomes matter! but we all see this, right?

When I went through YC the advice around hiring was: "always hire the best, early stage doesn't need interns". It feels like the meta shifted to "having 1000 interns is not that bad". I much prefer the original approach. As a founder you really don't want to be managing low quality input.

I really hate this opinion. Rust's async implementation is the least bad of all popular systems languages, by faaaaaar

Are you a builder who prioritizes shipping software? Or are you a craftsperson who prioritizes well designed code? It’s a false choice. You get more done with well designed code and tests than you do without. Craftspeople move faster than Builders who eventually grind to a tech debt induced halt.

Good news: @astrosky.eco is now fully hosted in the EU, by an EU company! 🔭 I wanted to migrate to a more cost-efficient server layout anyway, so I figured why not also move out of the US while we're at it 🎉

Took some time today to work on lubeno.dev and managed to do a bunch of stuff! Can't wait to ship it soon with some other changes.

You might not like it, but this is what peak performance design looks like.

I like to optimize my code for "rewritability". Once I have the first version done, I have probably learned so much that the rewrite will result in better performance and cleaner abstractions. However, with LLMs you don't learn anything. Makes it very hard to move away from first version/demo.
