Just want to emphasize: this is entirely built with CSS scroll snapping and view timelines – no JS gesture handling or animations. This means we get high frame rate fluid momentum and elastic physics matching the platform for free. It feels native because it really is – modern CSS is pretty amazing.
📢 Introducing the React Aria Sheet component! ‣ Native swipe gestures powered by CSS scroll snapping ‣ Gesture-synced animations ‣ Snap points ‣ Stacking ‣ Elastic over-scroll ‣ Keyboard aware Wrote a blog post about how it works! react-aria.adobe.com/blog/sheet

it's a new season for technology & for technologists, and our labor and its impact to the world are both more greater and more dangerous than ever. how do we make sense of work in an industry many of us no longer recognize?

insane how much good will, longstanding trust, and real business 1Password is willing to destroy just so they can donate some money to a racist project — this is such a catastrophically dumb move that should’ve been a no brainer to walk back within the first 12 hours
In an internal Slack message obtained by The Verge, 1Password’s Karimov downplayed the overtly racist comments from DHH, telling staff the following: www.theverge.com/tech/988536/...

feels like it’s inevitable these days that every tool you rely on is one garbage founder or funder away from their app’s version of this post

Yep. If code was never the hard part, software wouldn’t be so goddamn buggy and broken. If “code” only ever meant thoughtlessly churning out the next endpoint, you missed the point entirely. blog.senko.net/code-was-nev...

I have Gas Town derangement syndrome and spent the last few weeks writing thousands of words on agent orchestration patterns; how they shift our bottlenecks and force us to ask whether and when we should stop looking at code maggieappleton.com/gastown

Facebook's Static Hermes is kind of incredible. It can compile JavaScript into C, which is then optimized into native machine code. I just compiled the Less.js source code into a C library. Then I called it from Rust as a native Parcel plugin (no Node). Wild. 👨🔬 devongovett.me/blog/static-...

StandardSchema now supports a new interface to generate JSON Schemas ! 🙌 I started working on a StandardCodec RFC, for bidirectional data type transformation (which encompasses (de)serialisation), like what @zod.dev codecs & Effect schemas can do. Could be a sign to push it a little further 👀
Hey @tylerjfisher.com I’ve been using @sill.social for ages now and it’s great, but I’ve had an issue for the last few months where my auth session doesn’t seem to persist, so I have to log in every time I use it. Is this on your radar?

The problem with adding "help wanted" issues on @github.com is that people just feed those to their agent, and loop over PR review comments like drones 🫠 I don't have a problem with using AI, but submitting vibe-coded slop is wasting everyone's time. I doubt this will be enough, but it's a start:

📝 I'm a curmudgeon for doing menu items without icons (unless you can give a good reason to include them). And apparently Apple used to recommend the opposite of what they now do in Tahoe. blog.jim-nielsen.com/2025/icons-i...
