Did you miss the Anthropic and OpenAI blog posts screeching for regulation?

For the last 60 years, whenever AI achieves something revolutionary, some people immediately say "well that wasn't particulary revolutionary". Every single time. It's a tired argument, and we should strive for the intell

You audit the code, then you run cargo update and you are pwned. Asking the user to not make mistakes is the c++ approach to security - it doesn’t work.

cargo add + rust-analyzer instantly executes build.rs before you have a chance to audit the code. Cargo, please PLEASE give me a way to disable third-party build.rs and whitelist the ones I need. And please loudly mark any update that adds

The problem is that build scripts run automatically without user consent or intevention. `cargo add` is sufficient to compromise you, before you have a chance to even vet the code.

We are serving over HTTP/2 and currently testing HTTP/3. I don't have direct HTTP/1 vs HTTP/3 comparisons, because 0% of our requests are over HTTP/1 today...

The primary problem with SPAs is actually that the server state is duplicated client-side, which inevitably leads to state desync bugs. The secondary problem is SPAs approximately double the amount of code you need to write compared to a se

The library is small enough I simply load the entire datastar codebase in the context when I need to ask how something works. Once you have sufficient context in your html, this is no longer necessary.

Absolutely not, even on HTTP1.1. Our webapp is achieving 800:1 to 5000:1 compression ratios pushing down the entire HTML page over brotli and zstd. The first render is about 20:1 compression, every interaction after that is 800-5000:1. We a

You do you, but thankfully the rest of the industry disagrees with you.

Trump was elected by the electors, not by the people. Not entirely dissimilar from how VDL was elected.

However "world models" have been a thing for the entire history of computers. They have changed names over time: "rules engines", "expert systems", "semantic web", and so on and so forth. And they hav

If BEM is regular CSS, why would I use BEM instead of the actual thing? It's a layer of indirection for no reason if it's the same. You use Tailwind in the same way you use BEM: becuase it makes it easier for frontend developers t

If that is so, why are people getting up in arms about tailwind?

by Aeolos 2mo ago
The poster I responded to, specifically asked for how to implement this in tailwind, with a worry about "do you really style each component separately for dark mode? Repeating the same modifiers over and over?" I simply answered h

by Aeolos 2mo ago
That’s exactly how I’m doing this using tailwind and daisyui though, so I’m not sure what point you are trying to make? My global tailwind.css defines two sets of css vars for the light and dark theme, and it all gets applied globally with

by Aeolos 2mo ago
You just make a design system in your tailwind.css, following the documentation. You can optionally use something like daisyui if you do not have designer skills or the time. That handles consistent sizing, spacing, text, colors, dark mode,

All the evidence is against you here, sorry. Just read the google or microsoft security blogs, linux kernel mailing list, or any of the published security research about bug density in Rust vs C++. Or you can bury your head in the sand whil

It is obvious that you are just trolling, but for other readers: our production app went from 50-100 unexplained sentry errors in typescript to 0 sentry errors in rust. The language absolutely helps fix logic errors. It's something tha

Fat services, thin routes. Try moving your business logic to a library and consume it from both your UI and API routes. That minimizes duplication and decouples your public API resolvers (with backwards compatibility requirements etc) from

Having used both in anger, I find d* has a lot of very real advantages over react if you care about performance and application stability. It's simple enough that you don't need training or lengthy guides about "the rules of

You either buy a datastar license to get their debug tools, or you spend a couple of hours to build your own. I'm sure you can find something on GitHub too. One of the cool things is how extensible d* is. Everything is a plugin, and yo

Our UI is highly interactive: think 3d visualizations with toggle-able overlays, various display settings, searchable lists, drawing tools etc. We made a lot of progress with htmx, but eventually hit a complexity wall where we were spending

by Aeolos 2mo ago
I highly recommend everyone to give htmx or datastar a try, especially if your main experience is react or nextjs. We recently rewrote a half-million LOC codebase from react to datastar, with a detour through htmx first, and the results are

The Rust type system helps you catch logic errors at compile time. Same with Haskell or Ocaml.

There used to be a time when you had to write in assembly and count bytes to fit your code into the vanishingly small ROM you had available. Nowadays, you can just write in python with no care for the hundreds of thousands of cycles and meg
