It’s a little tricky. Performance per dollar is still skyrocketing at about Moore’s law speeds, but software has to be weirder and weirder to see real gains.

this is great news, electron needs more competition

really makes you wonder if we should get rid of the enormous html/css abstraction sitting between application code and the hardware which contributes nothing but complexity for the same end result

busted animation aside the fact that these controls are buried in a dot menu is just tragic, total abdication of the design principles of a once-great platform

what? design work is np-complete?

thanks for replying respectfully and in good faith man i really appreciate it

atproto is cool because it reduces this network effect problem to an interface problem (much easier) there is no underlying difference between a @standard.site post and a bluesky post, same for comments, follows, etc the network exists as a whole, and it only needs to win once

markdown rlhf is a model welfare issue

a future where your text editor's intelligence at times rivals your own but its native language is derived from the most cursed spec ever authored

not a day goes by that I don't think of xkcd 1425

atproto can save the open web

turning a big dial labeled "Haskell" and constantly looking back at the programmers for approval like a contestant on the price is right

my hot take on atproto private data is that "permissioned" is an awful word to pronounce and we should just call it private data because that's what everyone thinks it is anyway

from here we can bundle the answers together and organize them into tranches, with a class A tranche being the most likely to contain genuine answers

a little-known fact is that you can actually win any internet argument by tricking your opponent into explaining how closures work

pdf is one of those technologies where if I think about it too much I completely lose faith in computing and I have to crack open an old copy of apple's human interface guidelines to remind myself that any of this is worth it

kinda surprised that the dedicated wasm runtimes are several times faster than node/bun, but maybe it's just the benchmark? 00f.net/2026/06/23/w...

does anyone else find Raft to be meaningfully more confusing than Viewstamped Replication or is it just me

unironically the easiest path to a billion-dollar valuation right now is to write an agent harness that doesn't suck and resist the urge to vibe it into oblivion, unfortunately this has proven to be impossible

WHY????? What are the benefits? Who is this for? Who asked for this? How many are turned OFF by all this meaningless talk and promos? More than those who want it. Can't our lives be SIMPLER with ONE, as in 1, social to do it all? Like FB but not with elitist MZ or Meta. That would be great!
