Godzilla: The Series surprisingly managed to correctly predict the advent of Gen AI in 1998, and had an appropriate lesson at the end of the episode.

Engineering is the intersection of Curiosity and Capability

When your curiosity outstrips your capability, you expand your capability and grow

When your capability expands, it allows you to see farther and grows your curiosity

Don't allow your tools take away both your Curiosity and Capability

Local-first search A tale of frustrated dreams, utopian user experiences and calculated tradeoffs.

How are you solving this in your app?

The Context Wars: Notes from a Gathering of the Rebel Alliance What side are you on?

We wrote this after a gathering of folks working on the messy edge of identity, memory, and intent in agentic systems. The ideas are still forming, but the stakes are clear: whoever shapes context, shapes the future.

Get in touch if you're work around this.

Whatโ€™s a technology that you think is overhyped?

Iโ€™m going to give a sideways answer to this, which is that the venture capital business model needs to be understood as requiring hype. You can go back to the Netscape IPO, and that was the proof point that made venture capital the financial lifeblood of the tech industry.

Venture capital looks at valuations and growth, not necessarily at profit or revenue. So you donโ€™t actually have to invest in technology that works, or that even makes a profit, you simply have to have a narrative that is compelling enough to float those valuations. So you see this repetitive and exhausting hype cycle as a feature in this industry. A couple of years ago, you would have been asking me about the metaverse, then last year, you would have asked me about Web3 and crypto, and for each of these inflection points thereโ€™s an Andreessen Horowitz manifesto.

Itโ€™s not simply that one piece of technology is overhyped, itโ€™s that hype is a necessary ingredient of the current business ecosystem of the tech industry. We should examine how often the financial incentive for hype is rewarded without any real social returns, without any meaningful progress in technology, without these tools and services and worlds ever actually manifesting. Thatโ€™s key to understanding the growing chasm between the narrative of techno-optimists and the reality of our tech-encumbered world.

why didn't anyone tell me that building a database is a lot of work ๐Ÿฅฒ

Seriously though we're marching along; currently working on a Rust version of the query engine and a refactor of the search tree (focused on encoding/allocation/write optimizations).

Coming up soon: sync topics!

Yeah, just spelling it out here: Valve is a multi-billion-dollar corporate run storefront that skims 30% off the entire PC games industry.

Itch is a handful of people running a scrappy indie games n' smut store on literal donations. They *recommend* giving 10% to support them, but don't demand it.

It's wild what you can achieve with CSS alone on a multi-page website in 2025.

No JS at all. Just one CSS keyframe animation and a declarative opt-in to the view transitions API.

I believe that 'climate change' as a frame is doing more harm than good. People need to understand that we are actually living through widespread ecological collapse, mass extinction of the majority of Earth's species, and surpassing the regenerative capacity of multiple biophysical systems.
