Since the author asked about Alice: it was an Internet provider in France in the early 2000's. Some domains in that list are truly ancient. That was a trip down memory lane.

Great to hear, I'm excited by what's happening in this space!

I expected more than a GitHub clone, this is a bit of a let down. There's a lot of space to innovate around collaboration and version control in the age of agentic workflows.

This is a somewhat unpopular opinion here, however I do think flat UI can be done right and is well fitted to digital UIs. It's possible to have a flat style but have buttons that look clearly like buttons, and elements that have shado

I don't think that's right, professional cameras still use full sized SD cards.

I don't think making a good product is enough. X is still prevalent despite Musk's actions both as a public person and as X's owner. The alternatives, be it Bluesky or Threads, are fine to use, yet people aren't moving.

A lot of these principles are totally transparent for the user. For example, emails are a complex system but users can sign up to any email service and send emails regardless of which service their recipient uses. This could totally be poss

The article explains what's needed to run something like Bluesky (ctrl-f "To be fully sovereign you need"). My understanding is that Eurosky aims to be a non-profit ran alternative, hosted in EU. It integrates with Bluesky se

Do you have any good resources on how to work like that? I made the move from "auto complete on steroids" to "agents write most of my code". But I can't imagine running agents unchecked (and in parallel!) for any si

I'm also team USB-C wired earbuds (the Apple ones are cheap and solid, mic is also nice for calls) for podcasts and commute. I never stopped using wired headphones at home but also had BT ones on the go. When they started showing signs

This depends heavily on your use case. I'd get rid of Windows entirely if I could. For most people I'd say MacOS is the most sane and plug and play experience. The email/browser/note taking experience is better than on W

Musk is openly and heavy handedly messing with the recommendation algorithm to fit whatever views he wants to push. On top of that, he started paying people for their viral tweets, which promotes content farms and rage bait. It is not a pla

I've been trying it out on MacOS for the past couple of weeks and I'm happy with it. I have a fairly vanilla use of my code editors and I find Zed snappier than VSCode. I have not experienced the issues you describe.

I think the people who like shipping quickly probably don't like building products in the first place and are looking for other aspects of entrepreneurship. A huge benefit I find in AI is that it helps with a lot of things I hated. Mer

The security issue is real and the main motivation behind decoupling from US cloud services. Export tarrifs aren't really a thing, particularly for software. Making US cloud more expensive would only make transitioning away from them f

Trump's attitude motivated me to finally get away from Gmail. I tried several of the providers mentioned on this website and stuck with tuta.com. After almost a year, I'm very happy, would recommend. Interesting to know before goi

It depends where you live. There's no one company that's implented in all European countries. All countries have a shop similar to Amazon (often with fewer sponsored products and less drop shipping garbage). There are also a few s

I wish I found out about it earlier. Aerospace is a tiling window manager for MacOS. As someone who prefers keyboard navigation over mouse navigation, I can't recommend it enough.

I use Bluesky to keep up with software development news. The ability to default to my "following" feed is a big plus. I mostly see software related stuff and the stream of posts is slow enough that I reduced my time spent on the a

$1B sounds huge, I don't understand what Disney has to gain. Is this only to have some control over the videos generated on Sora with their IP?

I think it's good advice, the main difference is that Bsky encourages you to do that by giving you the possibility to customize your feeds (and set whatever as the default). You can have a combination of personal lists and custom algor

Indeed. Attaching the link (of the correct page) of the documentation worked in this case but I would've been faster than the AI. LLM.txt has been hit or miss. Maybe I need to adapt my workflow and have a granular plan of what needs to

That sounds crazy to me, Claude Code has so many limitations. Last week I asked Claude Code to set up a Next.js project with internationalization. It tried to install a third party library instead of using the internationalization method re

You could've stopped your sentence at "I don't know how a country filled with guns can survive." The main downside of abusing the words nazi and fascist is that it gives an out to the actual fascists out there. When it c

Fully agreed. I am however worried by the fact that Firefox is basically kept alive by Google. I assume it's just so that they can pretend Chrome isn't a monopoly, but the minute Firefox becomes an inconvenience they can stop fina

I've also made the move to Zen. I think Arc users will feel right at home there. It hasn't quite reached he same level of polish just yet but being in active development is a big plus. On top of that, Zen can be personalized with

> Their CEO seems to like trump As far as I know this is a "rumour" that stems from him mentioning his approval over one of Trump's cabinet pick. Saying he likes Trump is a stretch. Someone dug deeper into this topic: htt

Slight tangent but while this is bad with disclosed ads, I think it's even worse with algorithmic feeds. A lot of users don't realize that not only their feed is heavily personalized, but the "top comments" are also sele

It took me a while to make the switch from copy pasting in a chat to Cursor, but I do see an improvement in my productivity in a couple of ways. For context, this is doing front-end development and knowing what I'm doing. The benefits

This is one of those times where the shared article isn't very insightful but the topic and discussion that ensues are interesting. I've had Prime every now and then to watch some shows. I've now stopped using it entirely bec
