That makes sense!

I understand why not to a full git add -A to not commit files not intended to go into a particular change. It’s a good pattern to keep things limited as you say!

Just relaying what I see some people code. lol
(Nowhere near as structured and nice as your lib)

Sometimes I’m surprised the lengths people go when trying to not learn their tools.
Like why learn you can do ‘git add -A’ and have a good ‘.gitignore’ if you and just write 3 powershell scripts to parse git status, filter and add files one by one.

It’s incredibly disappointing to review vibe coded messes but it’s even worse when your comments are replied with copypasta from Copilot.

We just shipped the Microsoft AI Accelerator! 🚢

https://blogs.microsoft.com/blog/2026/01/26/maia-200-the-ai-accelerator-built-for-inference/

Today I spent my whole day explaining another human why their AI generated code does not work while they just feed my feedback to generate more non-functional output for me to explain.

This is my career now.

I truly despise the moment someone decided the best method of news distribution was newsletters.

The last app I want to spend more time on is my email client.

Whenever I hear about Gemini/ChatGPT/Claude integration in the OS I recall how iOS 6 had Facebook and Twitter integrations baked in.
Wild to think about it now.

As useless as Astro is, at least we got the chance to ship it.

My favorite piece of trivia of my hometown is that it is part of the Resident Evil canon.

I’m so jealous of Matcha. She can sleep in a perfect circle without an issue while if I put my head in the wrong position in my pillow I wake up with a sore neck.

Not confusing at all that this code base has a CheckBreakpoints() method followed by a BreakCheckpoint() call that must be explicitly called in that order to prevent deadlocks.

The only AI I really respect is Claude.

MF pushes back hard on me when it disagrees, refuses to do things and even leaves me homework when I ask it to do things.

The thing acts like me lol

It’s barely been a week and bad news don’t stop coming.
I have barely been able to sleep lately.

See a tuxedo post a tuxedo

It’s been a week 😪

It’s very sad to hear #pocket is going offline.
It was my favorite app for a very long time and my first big sideproject was to automate delivering your articles as magazines to Kindles!
During college that was one of the big places I always wanted to work at.

Long Ago Can Do Much More Than Help Track Habits The app has just been updated with an Apple Watch version.

I didn't know that Long Ago showed up in @appadvice.bsky.social ! 🤩

The whole argument of Facebook eavesdropping you to show ads is just a fallacy of people thinking they’re so unique you would have to spy on them to know they want a Switch 2.

Happy #Mustang Birthday for those of us who celebrate! 🐴

I always do vibe coding.
I don’t code when the vibes are off, which is pretty much every day.

The discussion about there being too many stray cats on the streets causing havoc on the environment is completely wrong.
The real problem is that there’s few rats on the streets to keep cats entertained.
We need more rats on the streets.

Long Ago runs on all your Apple devices now

🎁 Long Ago v1.3 is out now!

It’s a huge update containing not only the Apple Watch app and complications but also 5 new themes, new reminder options, new chart widgets and a lot more.
Also it’s now in Spanish!

I love game dev blogs because posts go from: “Getting started with Git for dummies” to “Optimizing quaternion rotation operations for parallel rendering pipeline processing”

This comic represents my work life.

If not even AI, trained on all 3+ million NPM packages, can write good JavaScript I think we should just stop

I’ve been frankly unimpressed by OpenAI/Anthropic’s thinking models for coding tasks.
They take 10x the time and produce barely better results than non-thinking ones.

…

Maybe that’s close to what we coders do.

Not that I’ve been a victim of it myself (at least there) but feels like the indie app scene in Threads is incredibly toxic with people just calling out each other copycats for whatever reason.

Calm down guys, it’s just task manager apps.

Office life is a constant cycle of being asked if you did something fun last weekend then if you are planning something fun for the next weekend

Long Ago app notifications with preview

Just added previews to notifications in @longago@indieapps.space

I bet most people won’t notice them but devil’s in the details
