apologies to the people I'm not following back through the Bsky mechanism, but providing that social graph info tied to my IRL identity to all the databrokers out there (shout out, yall working hard) seems like a pretty bad deal it feels somewhat antisocial but I don't want to publish that info

There are many "tricks" for tools like Claude Code because it's so new and raw. One of my favorites is telling it to leave `// TODO`s in the code when it can't fix something in the current pass -- for the Claude 4 models this avoids a lot of busted reward hacking. Same process I've used for years!

Claude Code today cannot be trusted with cd (doesn't follow its state) or sed (can do serious damage, lol amounts), and personally for my current workflows I have git denied too (sometimes this means it fails to search history tho, I need a better solution)

"bigger on the inside" feels helpful for LLM intuition, they're little finite information multiverses "next token predictor" acknowledges linear time but I don't think it's as profoundly limiting as it sounds, especially for machine-compressed time at many hz

I don't think the scifi I've consumed has prepared me for all of the cults that AI tools will enable

I like thinking of LLMs as information telescopes, rendering views or summoning portals into their massive latent space

My instinct would have made $state/$state.raw instead reversed like $state/$state.deep users wouldn't have to reason about "how does $state affect this particular value?" in the default case, with $state.deep opt-in for arrays/POJOs/etc but I can see how it's more "natively reactive" as is?

Svelte is a beautiful synthesis of HTML with JS and CSS it just gets out of my way without it I obsessed about performance in many more cases; the default overhead is lower than some key threshold and it's nudged me to be a better dev - I value a11y/SSR/progressive enhancement more than I used to

One of the roughest DX edges in Svelte right now IMO is reading the deps of $effects - overall it's ⚞incredible⚟ I've seen some ideas floated like listing them in an editor placeholder comment - here's another, but can it be done in vscode? and what would be the ideal styling that doesn't conflict?

I'm making a toy 2D web game engine with a focus on topdown action RPGs www.dealt.dev It's pre-alpha, can't make+share games quite yet uses Svelte, TypeScript, PixiJS - github.com/ryanatkn/dealt collaborators welcome! lots of interesting problems - architecture, perf, UI/controls, game design 🔮

polishing my Svelte app like `transition:slide` work complete.

underappreciated that they didn't namesquat googol, it's a good word, that's what I'm thankful for this season also Bluesky getting the web folks I follow I'm v. thankful for that

I often see people lament the loss of HyperCard type tools for building non-linear experiences. But there are actually a bunch of HyperCard-esque tools and app knocking around.

In hindsight I think the Node-compat story with Deno and Bun threaded a needle to turn out great. we get to choose between mostly-compatible runtimes now, maybe some frictions to using/authoring, but lockin is opt-in - a good outcome for devs and the commons and they still get to innovate and push

exciting times to see the #js ecosystem speed up from blazing to lightning 🔥 -> ⚡ -> ..?
