This is what I'm doing right now to learn Electron, I essentially had Opus write me a tutorial to write the application I want to have, and I'm modifying bits and pieces as I go. It's been enlightening thus far, and the bot

If they're skimping on their posters, what else are they skimping on? It's cheap, looks cheap, and signals laziness. This is the sentiment I'm getting even from non-technical people on Facebook these days.

Prebuilt machines have a terrible reputation, I could see people wanting this for a PC that you don't need hardware expertise to boot up. If you're reading this you could probably pick out your own parts and assemble them for che

Trip report: FFXIV does great, but both Hades and Hollow Knight have atrocious lag. I don't know why different games are different for Bluetooth lag performance, when they're all great on my Windows machine.

I hope the Bluetooth audio latency issue I've been having is fixed. I have two Bluetooth pairs of headphones, one open-ear and one noise-cancelling, and they both have either a half-second or one-second latency between what happens on

Stalin's Russia didn't have a cult of machismo quite like Germany or Italy did, they measured themselves by industrial and intellectual might, rather than how manly they were. Yes there are quite a few similarities I'll gran

This, I've been using SpecKit for a while for my side project and it's been working beautifully. I generally spend more than half my time working on the specs, until implementation is an afterthought, Claude already knows what to

Glad to see Anthropic continuing to invest in the longevity and quality of their open-source dependencies! If you missed it, they bought Bun a while back, which is what Claude Code is built in: https://bun.sh/blog/bun-j

Same, it feels like Bootstrap but much, much more customizable. When I'm not using ShadCN that's what I reach for by default, it's been much nicer to work with, personally.

I've been having a very good time with Zed. Great vim motion support, and fast to the point where using VSCode feels like driving a semi truck by comparison. https://zed.dev

Before I clicked the article, I said to myself "The victim's gotta be Black", and lo and behold. AI has inherited police's (shitty, racist, and dangerous) idea that any Black person is a dangerous monster for whom anyt

It's extremely refreshing to see the editor's memory and processor usage be smaller than the webapp tab I'm working on. I'm really liking it thus far!

People keep comparing LLMs to automated looms, but I find them more comparable to cruise control than autopilot. I've been working on a character sheet application for a while, and decided to vibe-code it with Spec-kit to help me write

I 90% agree with you, though Apple did stand up to the FBI some years ago. The US gov't at least is much more restricted on what data it can collect and act on due to the 4th Amendment among other laws, and as another commenter said A

I've fallen in love with using Vimium when browsing, and the real thing elements are much easier to use than JS substitutes. https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/vimium/dbepggeogbai...

Probably the same thing I'm trying to do as a side gig now, building software to help solo/small company artisans keep track of customers/payments/taxes. Essentially, make tools for others in my position that are going t

Hardest possible concur with everything OP said. Knitting and other fiber arts are the grandmother of computer programming, and I'd go so far as to say your CS education is incomplete without at least passing knowledge of fabric weavin

When I first saw this, I thought it was a joke to make fun of vim fanatics, but once I installed and started using it, it fit my hands really well almost immediately. Amazing, good work!

You owe it to yourself to give this a shot if you have the time. I find it less of a Civilization game, more a sci-fi horror novel presented with Civilization mechanics rather than paper, if that makes any sense at all. Play on Civilian an

POTUS fired two Dem members of the FTC, and the remainder voted to delay enforcement. Some people like this, where companies get to effectively scam people by deliberately not enforcing rules preventing it. I don't know why people lik

Why do regular people like this? For real, is it all "Those People Have it Worse", or do they just like the government making things worse for it's own sake? There's people who like this who will never benefit at all, d

I find that Copilot's suggestions are not quite what I want in most cases, so I have to edit what they give me anyway. I know Primagen had a similar experience that you had, he found it useful to keep the AI chat out of his direct edit

Would that it were possible, it's been sold out for years and it's $485 on Amazon for a used copy as of this writing. If you know a cheaper way to get a hold if it please let me know!

I got those and I love them, but that same thing happens to me if my sideburns get in the way of the speakers. It's a good signal to me to get my hair cut. Mostly, I use them to listen to stuff in the house and still be able to carry

You just described Numenera, if you've never read/played it I'd highly recommend giving it a shot! It takes place billions of years in the future in what it calls the "9th World", when some mysterious beings just
