I just had a disturbing thought. What if the LLM providers start blocklisting certain codebases? “I’m sorry Dave, I can’t do that. This codebase has been identified as proprietary.”

Consider what you might choose to do for the public good with the 30% of your income that is taken from you in the name of the public good. Philanthropy is a predictable outcome of an individual having met the basic needs of Maslow’s hierar

Woah woah, slow down there. Pythagoras applied his aesthetic desire for pure ratios to an idealized model for musical intervals. Funny enough, this ended up being the reason that the west discovered that such an approach does not scale (fig

The Nix Language, while goofy at times, is built for config-as-code and is hiding a decent little functional language in what looks like just attribute assignments. Likewise, CUE Lang is built for config (esp merging docs with shared refs)

A couple of months ago I switched from Neovim with a carefully crafted config file to Helix with zero config. I haven't looked back. As far a performance, well, Helix + Alacritty is the fastest thing I know of. Snappy AF. You're s

This gives me hope. I've been thinking lately that one of the ways that we get through this intense disequilibrium is through a youth counterculture that treats social media as something deeply uncool that only their out of touch paren

I'm also used to functional programming. The only thing I can not stand about Dart is that types are coupled to classes. If you want to use stateless functions and typed data shapes, you're out of luck. Compare this to TypeScript

The `create-react-app` project has existed for years, and gives you a standardized stack the bundles and boots with a single command. Rails 7 has abandoned JS bundling in favor of using somebody else's CDN. Have fun with that.

My compromise has been to use [flutter-rs]( https://github.com/flutter-rs/flutter-rs ). Flutter is a powerful and performant GUI/Drawing framework, even if you need to hold your nose when slinging Dart.

I hope that some day the 90s demo scene and its music gets a documentary film made about it before all the pioneers pass away. It's such a special cultural moment. The early steps into the distributed artistic movements we take for gra

I'd love to use this as a clock pane in my window manager. If you added the local time and removed some of the large text, it would be a great background.

Yeah that article presents a poor understanding of cymatics. However, you can think of the resonant body of the vessel that contains the water as one half of the interval. It's the relationship being the note and its environment that p
