Israel and the US are planning a new war on Iran. Historically (in Iran and other places), we saw political and internal crises emerge/staged when the US is planning a regime change in that country.

I had Gemini 3 Flash hit me this morning with "you're absolutely right" when I corrected it on a mistake it did. It's not conclusive of anything.

Industry standards are not platform standards. React (enabled by Inertia) is in many ways is an industry standard for building UIs on the web today, yet it's not part of the platform. Same with Vite, it's the standard way to bundl

Most of the reason I've started losing interest in Rails and the DHH cult is their insistence that their homemade JS solutions (Stimulus, Hotwire, JS import maps) should be the default choice instead of industry standards like Intertia

Eventually that is the plan. Like we saw with Claude Code, they want developers to get a taste of that unlimited and unrestrained power of a state of the art model like Opus 4, then slowly limit usage until you fully transition to metered b

I just logged in to Bluesky to see what the left think of this and I wish I hadn't. I find it extremely disturbing that half the country are people who are very well educated, earning well above average from their white-collar careers,

Like everything else, practice. I like to clone repositories of open source tools I use and try to understand how a particular feature is built end to end. I find that reading code aimlessly is not that helpful. Try to read it with a goal i

I agree. I think Arc was the biggest innovation in browser UI since Chrome. I think you will eventually have to switch because it will lack behind given that it's not their priority anymore. Zen browser seems like viable alternative bu

I just couldn't love it, and frankly I don't get the hype around it. I recently found that all my use cases can be served by either: 1. A general purpose LLM chat interface with high reasoning capacity (GPT-5 thinking on web is m

I'd argue it's actually the exact opposite of minimalism. Just an abundance of colours, emojis, and marketing jargon. It shows a lack of taste.

Can I replace "islamophobic" in your comment with "antisemitic" and not have my comment deleted or my profile banned on this site?

That's not how collateral damage works. The moral and legal responsibility is on the one dropping the bombs. As horrible as the US wars were, when we decided to kill Bin Laden, we sent a special operations team at night instead of flat

Nice little app. A UX enhancement could be to add a wizard like steps so the user knows where they stand in the flow. You can also allow the user to navigate forward or back in the wizard. It would also be nice if you can choose the time wi
