“The Pitt” is a blistering allegory of America and simultaneously
a mournful, defiant celebration of Americans that is in sharp contrast to the story of the USA that is being fed to us today. This is the counter-narrative we need in this moment.

uv is pretty great
Lookie here a brand new book on Learning #Filemaker Pro, by Mark Munro. Sweet!
Native drawing/Apple pencil support. This part of Obsidian feels like a hack. Exaclidraw is great, but sketching is a foundational aspect of meaning and sense-making, and it needs to feel deeply integrated.
Working in React sometimes makes me curious about how programming languages are designed and why certain mental models are the way they are. Svelte pushes the work to the compiler, React wants you to be explicit. Which do you prefer, and why?
// Svelte
let count = 0;
let name = "Bob";
const unchanging = 42; // const is fine because it never changes
// React equivalent
const [count, setCount] = useState(0);
const [name, setName] = useState("Bob");
const unchanging = 42; // still just a regular const
@obsidian.md iOS widgets would be much welcomed, especially a way to do quick notes. I know, we can shortcuts and advance URI it probably, but native would be nicer!
Conventions are cool. Reasons are better. Conventions without reasons is just dogma.
iPhone mirroring is an intrinsically goofy idea—probably even a bad one from a design perspective. Yet, I love is so much, LOL. 😂
Huh. I expected diminishing returns but not actually getting worse. #ai #retrieval #reranker
