We all have days like this

After a great response from Chris Giles, one of the authors of the AVBD paper, a new +>100% performance boost for the #WebGPU physics engine just landed on github.com/jure/webphys... Thanks Chris!

Android CLI: Build Android apps 3x faster using any agent News and insights on the Android platform, developer tools, and events.

`android docs` is the superpower we need for everything.

NPM / pnpm should have similar `npm docs` that would allow humans and agents to search for type-signatures and JSDocs.

Yeah it is almost like there would be better words for this!

I don't know though why Huang seems a bit agitated. He seems to misunderstand the questions as Dwarkesh's own views on things. It could be way he delivers the questions, he could frame them "Many in politics ask..."

Jensen Huang – TPU competition, why we should sell chips to China, & Nvidia’s supply chain moat “If our next several years are a trillion dollars in scale, we have the supply chain to do it"

Oh boy, when Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang starts to talk like @robertwrighter.bsky.social you wonder what is up.

He is advocating solving the "China problem" with AI chips by negotiations and agreements instead of shutting China out 1:18:00...

What I don't like TUIs is the exciting new ways they all handle keyboard input in text fields. Every app has own ideas what home, end, ctrl+left, ctrl+shift+left etc. means. I would much prefer normal GUIs because of that.

meshoptimizer 1.1 is out!

Featuring two new major features, meshlet topology compression and opacity micromaps, as well as a few smaller features and improvements! More information in the infographic and release above :)

Boosts and repository stars are welcome!

Bevy 0.19 is releasing soon, which means it's time for a blog post! jms55.github.io/posts/2026-0...

Just got back from Revision demoparty—my 64KB intro took 1st place. Huge thanks to @alkama.bsky.social for the audio work that made this possible. It’s a fully procedural 3:40 animation packed into a 58KB executable. I had a blast building it, and the audience reaction was incredible.

I have it too as my wallpaper, also the eclipse on second screen. However, as they day progresses, I seem to be switching to another and another, just because there is now too many to choose from!

the past decade has been all about figuring out how shitty software can be without drastically impacting revenue

LLMs are mostly accelerating this search

If one were to replace frameworks, then app code would be just one huge functions. AI is good at making spaghetti sized functions, that then break after a while.

AI is also good at following patterns of well made frameworks.

I know what I choose!

pglite competitor! I like pglite but they've taken a long time to make native library for it. For one I would like to use pgmicro/pglite in Rust apps or C# apps etc. as postgres replacement.

Postgres compatibility remains the USP for any database tool. And sqlite remains the USP for anything database in the agentic era[tm]. Just a PoC at the moment though.

AWS API Gateway caching doesn't seem to have collapsed forwarding / request collapsing. What a crappy product it is. Cloudfront has it though.

AWS API Gateway caching defaults to caching only by URL and not by query string. What sort of default is that? Then if you want to have full URL and query string included as caching key, it is not possible, you have to whitelist every query string parameter you want to include. Insane!

npm’s Defaults Are Bad The npm client’s default settings are a root cause of JavaScript’s recurring supply chain security problems.

They did solve something meaningful, Knuth-Plass justification is usable with browsers.

That alone makes this useful, since CSS justification is so terrible especially with e-book readers.

My erosion filter is out! Video, blog post, and shader source.

It emulates erosion without simulation, so it's fast, GPU friendly, and trivial to generate in chunks.

...it could stop publish vulnerabilities, zero days would still exist in different form.

And I know pnpm's cooldown setting, it is not the same thing.

Would NPM and other package repositories benefit from similar practices as Linux package repositories? First the update goes to testing, then to the stable, and some has few weeks between etc. Presumably with NPM being so important it could stop zero days.

I found AWS dependency from PI Coding agent, since I don't use AWS' bedrock, I found out I can just skip it like this:

"pnpm": {
"overrides": {
"@aws-sdk/client-bedrock-runtime": "npm:null-package@1.0.0"
}
},

Null package to the rescue!
