If only it were so simple to block all of my coworkers.

The article you linked is about social media as the proxy for information discovery as opposed to search. > …clear that mobile is the future… And also, "mobile" is tangential to "app" vs "website".

I've used git-bug[1] for issues and it works pretty well. The web-ui is lagging behind and PR support would be everything you'd need to ditch a central-hosted web instance. [1] https://github.com/git-bug/git-b

I really wish this weren't the case, but I'm afraid that we're heading to a place where if we flood reports to officials, they'll just jump on calling bike lanes "DEI" and take them out.

Four of them were regarding AI/Copilot. So that's really just one long running incident and will probably continue to be 50/50 chance of being down.

I also like that the article uses whatever system emoji you have, so everything is just showing apple emoji in text for me. All I see are a few 3D video renders of theirs.

Can someone explain the actual use-case here? I'm struggling with this because it also hides the message from myself, making it incredibly hard to type because I have no confirmation that I hit the right keys on the keyboard.

Also some instructions. I had no idea what I was supposed to do at first.

`git history split` is really going to help me help juniors break up their large PRs into smaller more concise changes. If only it had the option to split an entire branch in two easily.

I closed the page and gave up figuring out what this was about because of the poor contrast ratio and tiny font. [edit] apparently the contrast ratio is technically okay. But this is one of those cases where raw contrast ratio isn't ac

localStorage is not sent to the server when you request a document. So now you threw out the ability to do server-side rendering. This is only fine if you've got a application that always requires authentication, otherwise you risk ser

It's all the AI bloat for me. It keeps getting shoved in my face and they _really_ want me to use it. But I neither want nor need it. The product itself was so good that it doesn't need this whole guessing-machine-layer on top of

They've been using AI to shove a lot of AI into their product and trying to force everyone to use AI. I really don't understand the why of any of it. The product was working great for what it needs to do. I don't need AI to m

Zen has been working as a full replacement for Arc for me since the Atlassian acquisition. There are only minor things that I miss from Arc ("development mode").

I agree with a caveat: Default date pickers on mobile devices are very good. But on desktop browsers they are terrible. They break design continuity in a very ugly way and have quirks between browsers and systems. And personally, the popup

The images will always need a network request, but the non-JS version requires another request for the new HTML source. And with the previous implementation, all users would get the progressive enhancement, not just non-Firefox users.

This is a weirdly unpopular opinion here when it comes to HTML & JS, but there's a time and place for everything. This is a neat small example, but hardly worth the effort of changing something that was already working fine. With t

Seems like they went through a bunch of vibe coding only to come up with a half-baked copy of Astro. And why not just use Astro? It's got the exact features that they've built, many more, and a large and bustling community.

I'm in the US and it's off for me. I believe I've previously opted out of everything copilot related in the past if there was anything.

Thanks for pointing this out. I had no idea it existed. The other options in the comments just didn't quite work the way I would like. - The main topic requires me to pull python dependencies, build, run manually on Mac - All others ca
