Two recent blogs from someone I follow: How I close 30 PRs a day with multiple agents Debugging when everything is on fire 🤔

Never thought mac OS would feel like a chore to use, but man Omarchy has changed the game. Really starting to wonder if I just go all in with it on my intel macbook

Grok code Fast 1 is.. good, and fast, and cheap. I'd really prefer to not use Elon stuff - what else is good?

I always feel like I am 15 minutes from The most cracked code you will ever see / A complete re-write

I have been messing around with openAPI, and using hey API to generate a typescript client (with react query options). This is insanely cool. Why do we do anything else!

I think Ecto is the most impressive example of metaprogramming with elixir. Blows my mind

Are there any open models that don't suffer the "I refuse to say anything negative about anything" problem that makes AI useless at evaluating options?

Tailwind is great until you need to read it

Gemini CLI is utter trash. lightyears behind the competition and completely unusable

Surely whoever wins this LLM arms race is just going to price the product into oblivion within the first year of monopoly. Claude's updates show that its completely unsustainable. Chuck in the fact that all agent improvements seem to rely on gratuitous token usage.. I really dont see a happy future

AI smoking gun #187: bg-indigo-600 hover:bg-indigo-700

ngl gemini -> deep research -> create website did just blow my mind. No idea how accurate any of this is.. but man - what a way to quickly get exactly the information I want in a very digestable format

I wonder if the confident fallibility of LLMs is going to negatively affect public opinion on other hyper-focused machine learning advancements in the near future (cancer detection, robotic surgery, etc). half a step forward, three steps back in the long run?

Thank goodness accessibility is only a web thing.

So is anyone here using the @zen-browser.app as their daily driver? I've been letting it cook for a while and going to give it a shot. First 10 mins and its + for UI but - for 'scrolling snappiness' compared to basic firefox.

I’m finding @nuxt.com a very pleasant experience so far, but struggling massively with having to constantly restart the dev server because HMR seems to break. Usually when server routes are changed. Is there anything I can do to help?

Thank goodness AIs now search the internet and provide sources to increase confidence in the accuracy of the answers. Source: Clearly AI generated article 🫠

They could have just remade gladiator with a new cast, and not called it gladiator 2

#css people: what is the general advice for nesting selectors? I'm coming from using tailwind loads recently, where we style in place, but man I feel like I am suddenly remembering the magic of deep deep selectors 🤯 What could go wrong?!

Something I need to improve: I’m always inspired by people sharing their work on here, but never feel impressed enough with my own output to share.

Why would anyone NOT learn CSS? Its how you do everything!

Trying out Claude Code and its taking about 15 minutes and a $1 already, to update some old Sass @imports to @use. Why are we excited about this?

My first contribution to a popular open source project is *checks notes* a zsh script fix? Crazy! github.com/spaceship-pr...

Yep, www.better-auth.com is the one

Astro with Solid sprinkled in is an excellent combo for probably like 90% of front end use-cases

Should we keep calling it remix? Na let’s call it:

We are destroying software claiming that code comments are useless. antirez.com/news/145?utm...

I swear typescript devs will send you straight to jail if you even think ‘any’ , but will throw ‘as’ and declare typesafety every day of the week

The @tailwindcss.com v4 fresh look is 🔥btw

Thinking of learning a bit of Swift and some native UI. Why does everyone hate XCode?

What are the current go-to indie game publications these days?

Im refreshing my portfolio and wanted to go back to just writing CSS. Its so much fun having full freedom, but man sometimes I feel like a deer in headlights just thinking about how I should structure my styles. Chuck in component architecture as well and there are so many ways to skin a cat.

Does anyone have any tips to just jump start your 🧠 when you are just staring at the screen instead of reading?

OK.. Thats cool

Surely no one does the left.. surely..

Ps: I acknowledge (..so what do I know?): Next.js is the clear front runner in the js web framework space. Next’s biggest fault is the singular focus on being the default React Scaffold, instead of focusing on, and communicating, its core strengths

Back writing javascript after a christmas break learning elixir. God I hate trycatch

Any #elixir and #neovim devs here? Can you give me some pointers on how you setup your lsp and comp to work nicely in heex files? ~H""" templates seem fine, but separate files arn't working correctly

I just got a like and a follow from a mixologist because (presumably) I used the 🍷 emoji. Are we going to have a bot problem here?

absorbing the good stuff from the community (remix) is a pillar of open source

@tldraw.com please help I can't figure out how to turn off the snow!

That feeling when you complete the example in the text book without reading it and its correct

I am spending the weekend learning a bit of functional programming with elixir and so far I am really enjoying it but god damn, recursion for looping is making my brain itch

I am a recent self taught web developer - I skipped the jQuery era and landed straight on React. Currently challenging myself to build a portfolio with Astro and vanilla js and let me tell ya.. jQuery must have been a revalation

I don't know why it took me so long to write a 45 line script to remove .DS_Store from my directory.. but I am glad I did

Ok it was actually super easy to setup my own domain here. Fun!
