the state of github has truly become embarrassing. can we have a slop free version that works?

1/ I’m still processing what’s going on in tech at the moment. I used to feel at home in that world. It used to feel incredibly creative and positive. Now it’s increasingly full of bugs, dark addicting patterns and AI slop. 2ality.com

a nice DX trick to not bother with injecting your request logger everywhere : ES5 getters reading from an AsyncLocalStorage, this way you'll get the most relevant logger at any point when calling `logger.warn(...)`

does that mean Bun single-file executables with bytecode optimization working with top-level await soon 👀

best TypeScript/PG DX I've come up with yet: → Bun → GraphQL with Pothos/gql.tada → dev mode with either PGLite or docker → build executables with --compile → tests on apps created on each suite with their own in-memory PGLite over actual HTTP calls (fully isolated, flakiness disapeers)

how did GitHub manage to downgrade their review page to the level of GitLab?

it's been 6 months at least that I can't accept/decline a calendar invitation sent from a Gmail account on my iCloud one on iOS. works without any issue on macOS. I love software.

who the fuck decided that popover dialogs would be inert if any modal is open, regardless of the order where the show* methods are called

if you'd task software engineers to design a bike they'd find a way to get rid of the chain because coupling the pedals and the wheel is a ✨ bad practice ✨

who the hell at apple figured out that a progress circle filling up with GREEN was in any sense a good way to indicate the expiration of an authenticator code

the tech industry is filled with people who believe that anything new is the new default, maybe let’s calm down

this drives me crazy

here are the slides from the talk I gave today at apidays: GraphQL, Pothos & SQLite: a perfect match speakerdeck.com/bloodyowl/gr...

ReScript 12 is here! A major step toward a leaner, faster, simpler toolchain. This release refines the language and embraces ReScript’s own identity. Blog: rescript-lang.org/blog/release... Notes: github.com/rescript-lan... Huge thanks to everyone who helped move ReScript forward.

lol I released an album apple music: music.apple.com/fr/album/ok-... spotify: open.spotify.com/album/3WNLZH...

So this crab jumped into our build system and things got out of hand. End result: a brand new, super fast ReScript build system. rescript-lang.org/blog/reforgi...

the *OS26 update is BY FAR the buggiest I ever went through as a user. it definitely seems like every interaction waits for the end of an animation to perform the action you intend, which breaks regularly.

ReScript 12.0.0 RC2 is out. Give it a spin and share feedback before the final release. github.com/rescript-lan...

modern development is just distributing your problems over HTTP calls that are billed by AWS send post

added `matchPattern` and `matchesPattern` to rhums (React Hook for URL Matching and Subscription (it's a router)): github.com/bloodyowl/rh...

the SQLite evolution & ecosystem is slowly turning it into a no-brainer solution for most production applications with today's hardware fly.io/blog/litestr...

fuck vercel

tvOS 26 misses video and audio sync over airplay connected homepods half the time, but thank god I can find confort in the light diffraction effect on buttons to restart the device!

at some point we’ll need to adapt to billionaires and make some books have a « dystopian nightmare » label on it. (prior art: « do not drink » on bleach bottles)

just passed 1M downloads on npm! 🎉

il se pourrait qu'on relance une publication au format audio avec @moox.io @zoontek.me et @jojmaht.bsky.social dans un avenir proche mais 🤫

why the fuck do people believe they need a dependency injection framework?

cloud and LLMs have one thing in common: their success is the direct consequence of companies actively fighting against computer literacy as a strategy to increase their profit.

what a missed opportunity to call a movie « the neural network »

fast forward 5 years from now: the maximum attention span you can expect from anyone you're talking to dropped to 1 second because summarizing conversations with AI seemed like a good idea back in the days. to address this, new AI product helps you keep track of the conversation context for you!

this tells you everything you need to know about building a great tech company culture, even though it’s about food and restaurants. (in french) youtu.be/UO5VrO9v9SQ?...

Absolute banger

I’m starting to understand how cloud hosting is one abstraction too much. the illusion of simplicity never seem to overpower the heuristics you can have from running things on a computer.

I don’t think anyone can top up pothos-graphql.dev in terms of GraphQL schema DX.

youtu.be/5LxbmaXQa-E stumbled upon this today by chance. I’ve been waiting for this game for 15 years

I've been a bit in disbelief recently on our industry: we've never had hardware that fast & cheap, and rather than making our programs more efficient to make them fast with lower resources, we started shipping code that take orders of magnitude more CPU cycles to perform the exact same tasks.

from *very scientific* assessment considering the average tech architecture & hosting choices, I estimate that startups generally pay AWS about 10-50 times what they would pay if they didn't over engineer stuff and just rented actual servers

for web applications we should *mostly* not focus nearly as much on unit tests but rather focus on making locally ran tests closer to end to end tests

never tell me I don’t know how to enjoy a week off

cooking some software experiments and mark my words: the future is bright and it comes with the glorious Bun, SQLite and Pothos stack
