I let a Claude do a project in Go last night instead of Rust... And was just *ASTOUNDED* how much wall-clock faster results happened. Language and toolchain economic still **absolutely** matter in post-AI programming.

This is some wildly dumb shit and ICANN what are you doing?? You have one job and it is "do not let internet naming become an untrustable wild-west shitshow", aka, very much the exact opposite of what you are doing here! [contains quote post or other embedded content]

Wishing for a norm for root-parameterized links in Markdown. E.g. `[linky text](THISROOT/foo/bar.md)` and then you define the capslock bit Somewhere Else. At repo scale, or something. Would help enormously with having e.g. multiple vaults of documents with partial overlap of subtrees.

this might be kind of an, idk, 43 degree take or something, but I think tools should not poll `git status` rampantly. Either that or we have to talk about how git caches the index. Because teaching my filesystem sync tools to ignore or specially handle `**/.git/index` is kinda Not Super Great.

Thinking about the batshit insane claims that "soon AI will generate assembly directly" multiplied by claudespeak's concept of "register" multipled by CPUs have "registers". Would Claude consider `eax` a playful register or a businesslike one?

it's 2026 copying text on android pops up a little rectangle on the screen to confirm you've copied the text sometimes it still hasn't copied the text and the paste action will not be available when you try to use it momentarily

bluesky DMs got the microthreading "reply to exactly this message, legibly" feature at some point didn't see any headline about it but celebrating it. good feature. nice when things get better.

There's some kind of a post-eternal-september problem in some things that AI "knows" about, in that if it was already popular, and had a bunch of stack overflow posts about it that were confidently wrong in various ways, now AI is likely to be confidently wrong about those things. Like git. -.-

So if you wanted to make a proglang And have mutable parts of structures be obvious, at a glance. Like you can't embed or refer to things can have them be mutable when reached via a structure or reference, unless they SAY they can be mutable. Taint. Aggressive taint. ...what would you call that

I need a feature for reskeeting of skeet pairs, specifically for this pair. The irony that it's practically a choir effort, when seen in it's original context, is also just extreme chef's kiss [contains quote post or other embedded content]

So one funny outcome of my window manager really fucking rocking at multitasking, plus also integrating with existing standards and tools like polybar... ... is I find spicy edge cases like: if you've got a LOT of virtual desktops, with long-ish names: polybar doesn't ever truncate those lol

Something has happened in video call software. Jitsi now has better noise canceling ime than google meet or facetime. 😶

Remember when we needed the "process the payment, payment processor" meme? Wonder when "provide the model, model provider" is gonna roll around.

It's funny what "skills" we still have to try to equip an AI with. Skill for Tarjan's SCC, how to build, how to use: no need. All implicit, in the weighs, forgeddaboudit; done, sorted. Skill for shut the fuck up and get to the point? Value: infinite. Challenge rating: impossible,,

Do some PLT people just say "co{thing}" to mean "kinda roughly the opposite of {thing} (but also in a completely nonrigourous way im a concept space that might be multidimensional)"? Not everything is easier to understand by calling it a dual

It's a shame that as much as git is a good version control system, it's not much for a document control system, because it's not very good at talking *about* other documents. Incredible amounts of flourishing to be unlocked if someone could address that well in something as local-first as git is.

Keyboard focus UX is **so** under-studied in recent decades. We've got places where interaction speed+accuracy actually matters -- store checkouts! -- using ancient UIs everywhere because *the keyboard actually works* and has affordances in pre-2000's software. Modern tech needs to re-learn this.

Making sure to wave the mouse over and visit all my mobile browser tabs open to @exe.dev session so I don't get auto logged out again. It's a lovely service other than that one weird bit.

if you're wondering why atproto doesn't have floating point it's basically me, and either You're Welcome or I'm Sorry depending on which camp you're in about that
