The term has broken out of programming to be (sometimes invalid) argument against local improvements in a system/product where feature contributions are (viewed as) more worthy elsewhere.

Rico Mariani has some stuff to say at ricomariani.medium.com/hotspots-pre.... Rico is always a good read on performance topics.

My favorite use-case for AI is writing logs One of my favorite AI dev products today is Full Line Code Completion in PyCharm (bundled with the IDE since late 2023). It’s extremely well-thought out, unintrusive, and makes me a more effective dev...

I really appreciate a well-thought out product and full-line code completion in PyCharm had to be one of my favorites, I use it for logging all the time

YouTube video by Armin Ronacher Agentic Coding: The Future of Software Development with Agents

I decided to record a talk on agentic programming and why I'm so damn addicted to this. I think there are a few useful things in it, but I'm sure in a month this will be outdated :) www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfOV...

I rarely post personal things. But I need to talk about my 4-year-old niece, Hope.

She has a rare disease. A drug called elamipretide has helped her survive.

But the FDA recently denied its approval.

Now, her health hangs in the balance.

Please share her story & urge the FDA to reconsider. 🧵

@covertshores.bsky.social just did a YouTube video on this.

Congrats, Dipshit, You’re a Dad Now Listen up, soup for brains. Yesterday, you were just a man. But today, a doctor snipped the umbilical cord off an angry, gray alien with your name ...

"And if you thought you’d only have sons, you better suck it up, buttercup. You’re a Girl Dad now. So check your punk-ass ego at the door and play tea party with your damn daughters. You don’t like that your new name is Penelope Fluffybottom? Tough luck."

I prefer the post, but a short video touring what is covered in the post can be helpful to review key points or concepts.

That’s impressively bad

Bob Cesca? I only know of him because he did a bunch of weird Internet cartoon stuff around 2000. I looked him up more recently and he was doing radio.

This seems like the usual problem of mapping between how they represent a design that can be arbitrary in their editor and the output. This reminds of Drumbeat-esque output that came a few years before Dreamweaver. This should fixable to an extent, but real fixes often constrain their editor UI.

My county too :(

It’s likely critical for chain of custody as it contextually presents the messages. Someone can reply to “is that your phone?”

For the base, I install 1Password, Alfred, Rectangle, Sublime Text, uv (for Python) and Homebrew. From there I remap capslock to ctrl and tweak a few Dock prefs. At that point, it depends on whether it is a dev or photography machine. I do way less tweaking now than when I was younger.

On the surface it seems harder to sell a LinkedIn account. I’d look at related accounts to see if this is designed to game the reputation system by boosting a whole segment of accounts.

Is there a static analyzer that will catch that messed up assembly binding config?

Does Real ID help in any manner here?

It’s the platform, but they struggle to struggle to resolve valid escalations. Garron Noone (www.instagram.com/reel/CwIExe9... ) was hit before the holidays. A normal level of c-word usage that is appropriate for his humour gets caught by ML and then the initial human reviewer doesn’t get it.

Joy for JavaScript Developers • Josh W. Comeau Grab both of my flagship courses — CSS for JavaScript Developers and The Joy of React — in one delightful bundle 😄

Psst! 🕵️

The Black Friday sale on my courses starts tomorrow, but I secretly just launched part of it right now! 😮

You can get my two flagship courses in a brand-new bundle, and save 50% in the process. ✨

I made a landing page for it and everything:

My preference around videos is that it highlights elements from the text to help pull things together. Going through the minutiae in video is painful.
