A lot of people need to be visited by three ghosts

En UD-chef och utrikesministern hävdar att ingen av de fängslade flottiljdeltagarna berättade om misshandel då UD kom på besök i fängelset. Ren lögn, enligt flera av dem, som Aftonbladet intervjuat. En läkare och tortyrexpert har undersökt dem: ”Mycket trovärdiga” www.aftonbladet.se/nyheter/a/xm...

Edinburgh castle failing to render, likely thanks to the AWS outage

When I expect some paragraphs of text in response, ChatGPT and Claude often give me this sparse unstructured response with a lot of unexplained concepts. Gemini seems so much better.

You're absolutely wrong

"ChatGPT dies after each conversation" is a misleading statement. If anything, ChatGPT dies after each token, the same way you die after each moment of awareness :)

My favourite academic / IT story involves a phonecall to our IT support: Support: Hi, Alex. How are things? Alex: Fine thanks. Support: So, what can I do for you? Alex: It's my computer. Support: What's wrong with it? Alex: It's on fire?.......What do I do?

I wonder if LLMs would perform better on code if newlines were turned into positional encoding for the y axis.

I wonder why YouTube links keep on opening in the in app browser instead of the app.

Yeah but how big are your tokens?

Looks like OpenAI might have trained Sora 2 on YouTube videos. Look at the olive oil labeling design in the quoted post. Now look at these: - www.graza.co - youtu.be/tgHEMFM6KY4?...

@ricky.fm I think i finally understand how to explain action props to my colleagues. I will of course link the demo, but the teaching part clicked now. tysm!

I'm excited about module declarations, because sometimes all I want is to put the little "use client" code in the same file as the server code. github.com/tc39/proposa...

Yeah. This has come up more and more over the last couple of years as folks -including us in typescript-eslint- have run into those limitations. We put up a tl;dr + medium dive here that I think might be useful to know: github.com/typescript-e...

As an experiment, we (the Firefox team) wanted to try a new way to get feedback on which Interop proposals matter most. So, here's a web app where you can rank the proposals you care about, giving us data we can use when reviewing which ones to champion. interop-rank.jakearchibald.com

Fun fact: this model is not returning autoregressive results. Instead it's returning alternatives for the next product. When you add a product, new alternatives show up. In a way, the customer makes it autoregressive. The customer is the one doing the sampling.

When I was beginning to learn to code, I took advantage of Stack Overflow quite a lot. At some point I learned that if I could formulate my Google searches more similarly to how people title their questions, I got better results. Google acted as fuzzy search (which ranking).

New Era for React = Stronger JavaScript Ecosystem 💙 React doesn’t live in isolation - It works alongside Node.js, Electron, webpack, and more. A dedicated foundation under the Linux Foundation means more collaboration, security, and sustainability across the ecosystem. hubs.la/Q03MylxX0

This was really good

The latest app store reminds me of the fact that you're never in control of your creations on someone else's platform.

I've come to believe that LLM context works best if it doesn't have mistakes or backtracking. I edit the original prompt until it gets it right. No follow ups after mistakes or contradictions. It's like I hit rewind with a time machine to go back before the mistake. No recoveries.

Is there any current equivalent to this?

Segmentation is a limiting idea

React 19.2 is now available! This release includes Activity, useEffectEvent, React Performance Tracks, partial pre-rendering, and more: react.dev/blog/2025/10...

One thing I miss a little from the bird site is seeing replies to posts from strangers from people I follow. Those strangers were pretty much the only way that I found people to follow. It led to me finding my current job. I can't remember the last time I followed somehow on here.

Hey @danabra.mov, why does this work in Lean? Asking for a friend (actually)

Found this old diagram of mine

I choose to interpret “wherever you get your podcasts” not as a statement of platform neutrality but as an admission that the podcast studio is a Severance-style void and the hosts actually don’t have any clue where one could get podcasts

Seeing the face of a podcaster the first time is wild

Safari disconnected from the OS alert! Now we just need this on iOS and with auto updates.

Don't know if I want glass everywhere, but this is impressive regardless.

Oh my, this is so obvious in hindsight www.speedcurve.com/blog/web-per...

You know you've written too much Python when your browser suddenly opens the "print this page" modal.

Full on fascism now huh

Had this at work recently (auto shop, for context) guy came in looking for tires. I asked what size he needed and got "I'm not sure, I asked Chatgpt and it said *x size*" My brother in christ, you drove the vehicle here, you can get the size right off it - accurately.

Med tanke på att vår utrikesminister spridit inlägg som kallar judar som står med skyltar "alla barn är lika värda" för odjur och sagt att de inte hör hemma i Sverige, så kan man konstatera att regeringen är långt ifrån mogen och ansvarsfull nog att styra mer över folkets demonstrationsrätt.

Apparently Shinkansen is measuring time in 15s increments. Meanwhile, the timetable display for my commuter train says "now" and the train may come within 1-2 minutes.

Just read that Andor got an Emmy for screen writing. Imo it's better than anything else Star wars. It dares to be current, and it's better for it. I think this speech might have played a large role in the award. If you aren't going to watch anything else, watch this: youtu.be/KYnE2Mxayco?...

I liked this speech a lot. youtu.be/BbqR_6Qgplw?...

The thesis of this post is that React isn't innovating and other UI libraries are. But the real issue is that React's innovations are overshadowed by it's own success. www.lorenstew.art/blog/react-w...

About a year after I was sitting on a bike in southern Europe dreaming of domain names, we are launching Endform for everyone on Product Hunt. We are the Platform for Playwright E2E tests! Your support would be much appreciated, come give us an upvote! www.producthunt.com/products/end...

I wish I could define a module inside a module, and then lazy load it.

I wonder if it's more likely if you're really exposed, like John Oliver.

Why does Acme have so many different meanings?

I trained a 0.6B custom model today.
