This. Blindly letting LLMs drive the unit test definition will lead to lots of useless tests. I’ve burned my fingers with it.

Having a tightly defined spec and handholding LLMs work within that context is the best way forward.

I don’t work on the Workers but let me add @threepointone.bsky.social or @chatsidhartha.bsky.social or @kentonvarda.com to the chat. I’m sure they might know about some magic incantation that could help.

I loved the nature but hated the meditation and yoga sessions. But in retrospect, that experience was worth it. I am grateful for those lessons in equanimity which help me everyday.

Yes, as a kid during summer times. But it wasn’t what you expect in a Hollywood or Hong Kong movie ☺️

I find it surprisingly meditative. Or maybe it’s the hangover from the time I spent in the monastery.

Shower time, cleaning dishes and slow walks are the best time for me to let my mind wander.

I tried opening the Germ DM link from your bio and it doesn’t wor on my iPhone 15 Safari. Bug maybe?

i think migrating away from Vercel hosting is a solid idea. i moved my Next.js blog to Cloudflare (for free) and have been very happy with that

with Next.js 16+ committing to deployment adapters (and Vercel adapter using the same API), we should hold their feet to the fire on the ease of migration

Sam: The story behind my nickname | Sam Khawasé I design products, fine-tune strategies, build teams, and create rock solid software.

Nice post and interesting to see cool stuff being done on ATProto. I loved your reference to Montaigne. Also @germnetwork.com looks pretty cool, I'll check it out.

I blog semi-regularly and pushed an article this morning.
Nothing spectacular though.

Honestly I'm lost between these various social media factions.
Bsky is nice but dead for tech and 99% stuff is US politics.
X has good non-US discussions+Tech but it is infested with wignats.

indieweb.org/POSSE is the only way forward.

I took a hiatus from social media and vowed not to sign back in unless I had produced something worth sharing. I hacked my old kindle device and created a school dashboard for my daughter using @cloudflare.social
platform. Totally worth it 💯.

Turkish is such a fascinating language. It has some unique grammatical features that are hard to translate. Agglutination, and evidentially are my favourite

My personal site uses domain from Porkbun and deployed on Cloudflare pages. There’s no static content in it, although it’s very easy to add Workers, Workflow etc if I need. It has withstood Slashdotting so far.

I can’t open your site and see “Safari can’t open the page because too many redirects occurred”.

I’m biased towards Cloudflare Pages, because it easily handles your website being slashdotted (HN’d?).

Thanks for the tip. I have few eink devices, RasPies, Microbit etc at home and wanted to get something that I can hack together with my 10yo daughter.

Dear BlueSky community: 🦋

What cool hackable electronic stuff should I get from Shenzhen?
(E.g. eInk displays, ESP32s?)

My friend is in Shenzhen and told me they can get me something on their way.

Please RT for wider reach if you like.

Dickens was a racist cunt and no amount of sugarcoating that turd is going to change it. Here’s the source:

Charles Dickens was a raging cunt and racist of the highest order even by the standards of his rotten Victorian age.

He wanted to “exterminate the (Indian) Race from the face of the earth”. Any person adoring him is a nazi of the highest order.

The kids in my daughter’s ganztagsschule who are fasting have classes the whole day. Did you have shorter school days for kids who were fasting?
