simply, more OSS projects should DO THIS.

OSS is a long playing game, if not forever. but we are people behind those projects, and we need good rest and balance to keep things sustainable. I am super happy to see this move and looking forward to see how it could change how OSS works for all of us.

it’s not a perfect metaphor, but in terms of social responsibility i think operating an autonomous AI agent account on Bluesky is like having a child, pet, or familiar — if it causes issues in public or bothers people, you as the “parent” are responsible even when you’ve done due diligence

I get what you mean. But I’m pretty sure for my country, adoption has been rather slow since most people here see it as just another twitter clone.

I just binged the latest season of The Bear and it was somewhat soothing. I feel like we're seeing that the story is making a soft landing towards its emotional conclusion. I hope they stick the landing and not try to drag the show on.

depending on your needs, onchange={handleInputChange} usually does the trick. The handleInputChange function should expect the Event object as the input with that syntax.

This is exactly the endgame & a reason for the gold rush; to become embedded in our life's supply chain. Part of a broader pattern where we willfully trade ownership for subscription convenience. In this case, outsourcing thinking to a rented robot brain. Infinite revenue for them, addiction for us.

It’s kinda wild how calm my Bluesky TL is considering my Twitter TL is on fire with perverts being blasted for digitally and sexually harassing women with the new AI feature

"in 2026 DO NOT ask yourself whether your art is GOOD

instead ask:

- Is it SINCERE
- is it CATHARTIC
- was it FUN TO MAKE
- is it MADE BY ME

and don't forget to stay silly"

I do love how convenient it is that there’s a train specifically for people going to and from the city’s airport in my city.

In the wake of the tragedy in Australia today, someone took the time to create a fake news website and made up a white “IT professional” named "Edward Crabtree" and claimed he stopped the Bondi shooting.

The real hero is a man named Ahmed Al Ahmed. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-12...

I just realized that Firefox implemented Temporal API already. I'm a bit surprised since I for some reason thought that they're usually slow on new feature adoption.

I actually think I like working, it's just that I hate that it's REQUIRED for me to live. And also that I need to do it on other people's terms. Also I hate that I can't really control my work environment much. My desk in the office has terrible Feng Shui.

I used GIMP recently but I haven’t used it often yet. I just used it to scratch some notes on some designs.

There's something fun yet calming about folding a piece of paper into a zine. I don't even put things in it. I just like folding it into shape without tools. Just sharp corners and careful tearing.

I don't 100% agree with that stance, but it does show why concentrating so much of the modern open-source frontend ecosystem under one roof is problematic – and this is something I've been worried about since the recent Nuxt.js announcement from a couple months ago.

As my thoughts develop on AI: I agree these tools have socially-beneficial *potential*.

Also, in a moment in which unabashed technofeudalists are using AI to help them execute a terrifying global power grab, you cannot be surprised that their targets don’t want to focus on its *positive* aspects.

Could programmers from the 80's understand today's code?

Could todays programmers understand code from the 80's?

My brother, I don't understand my own code from last week. Every line I write is a bespoke bit of spontaneous genius that even I am incapable of deciphering mere days after writing it.

"are you a web dev" or even "are you an artist" is a much less interesting question to me than "am i welcoming learners", "is what i am saying loving or kind?", and "do my posts result in more or fewer great works being made?"

learning how to draw is more like learning how to tinker with linux or program something than one thinks. i think the biggest stopgap is usually the free time, but the culture of learning how to draw has this very peculiar situation where people treat it as exceptionally less systematic or

I just binge-watched Stick (2025) and it was a solid show. Interesting cast of characters with satisfying arcs for a single season. I don't know if I want more but for what it was, it's simple and satisfying. Like Ted Lasso lite.

Why did you think Sveltekit made Svelte bloated? The big change between v4 and v5 was signal-based runes and that wasn’t due to Sveltekit, that’s just industry trend of better reactivity. Am I missing something??

Going to suggest something to everyone instead of just dooming. Email YouTube and Google support your concern about this. If they see so many complaints, they may backtrack.
