imbnwa··on Claude Integrations
Feel like middle management is gonna go well before engineers do with LLM rate of advancement
imbnwa··on Someone at YouTube needs glasses
And yet they make searching that library as painful as it can be so they can funnel you into an engagement pit
imbnwa··on Someone at YouTube needs glasses
Proliferation of middle management as a separate track killed software
imbnwa··on Cozy video games can quell stress and anxiety
Superliminal did this for me recently. Also had me reflect on some things.
imbnwa··on Why Fennel?
If I'm writing an advanced Neovim config, I'd find YueScript[0] a lot more pertinent. Personally I can't deal with Lisp paren noise, I can hardly deal with semicolons.

imbnwa··on Trump exempts phones, computers, chips from ‘reciprocal’ tariffs
Trump didn’t learn like he should’ve when he was under the thumb of Sammy the Bull
imbnwa··on New Windows 11 trick lets you bypass Microsoft Account requirement
This is why need SteamOS
imbnwa··on Apple needs a Snow Sequoia
How does Apple Music not have an equivalent to Spotify Connect?! Renders Apple Music unusable, and no, we're not talking about Airplay, and no, we're not downloading iTunes Remote (can't believe it still even has 'iTunes' in its name!).
imbnwa··on A 10x Faster TypeScript
Will the refactor possibly be an occasion for ironing out a spec
imbnwa··on Kagi Is Bringing Orion Web Browser to Linux
I've liked things about macOS Orion but some key extensions basically only work with Chromium browsers. That's not really on the Orion team, Chromium has a bunch of stuff neither WebKit nor Gecko support specifically around the file system and in-memory blob sizes
imbnwa··on Trump Moves to Increase Logging in National Forests
Teddy Roosevelt rolling over in his grave
imbnwa··on My washing machine refreshed my thinking on software estimation
And like James Cameron innovating underwater shooting with "The Abyss", software developers may innovate a domain on the way to solving a business problem
imbnwa··on Basketball has evolved into a game of calculated decision-making
How much of the NBA economy is predicated on those regular season ticket and arena sales? And despite viewership dropping off, it isn't zero so the ad money lost is still a thing too isn't it, unless they charge more?
imbnwa··on TikTok is back in the App Store
Yeah, they do seem to be quite busy illegally destroying New Deal Federalism and any judge loyal to the constitution is gonna be occupied well into the future with that
imbnwa··on Trying out Zed after more than a decade of Vim/Neovim
I use Neovim with Copilot assistant plugins all the time for work
imbnwa··on Trying out Zed after more than a decade of Vim/Neovim
Made the same reply elsewhere. You can do everything he desires and stick with Neovim. He just pretends he never heard of Astro or Lazy. He uses Packer though, so he might not keep up with the state of the ecosystem or something. I caught myself wondering if this was marketing.
imbnwa··on Trying out Zed after more than a decade of Vim/Neovim
You can literally do all of this in Neovim. Just use a distribution if you wanna outsource config (Astro, Lazy, etc), which is what Zed is. I use LLM in my Neovim, I get autocomplete in my config.
imbnwa··on Supreme Court upholds TikTok ban, but Trump might offer lifeline
There's a Chinese creator on there Huey Li who just made a whole video about that as part of a story about how, now living stateside, he can no longer write in his mother language
imbnwa··on Understanding Memory Management, Part 1: C
Which is why it sucks the top comments are pedantry over what is proper C code, or other comments are about how to optimize the article's code, all missing the point that we're learning concepts that can be corrected later
imbnwa··on David Lynch has died
The Sekiro of Lynch movies. I was defeated by the first dance routine.
imbnwa··on Should more of us be moving to live near friends?
2022, though 2019 was marginally lower
imbnwa··on Should more of us be moving to live near friends?
In the case of America, violent crime is at a 50 year low. New York City, for example, was far more dangerous back when La Cosa Nostra was calling the shots than it is today.
imbnwa··on Spotify Shuts Down ‘Unwrapped’ Artist Royalty Calculator with Legal Threats
Terrible app, variable quality since they clearly re-use music uploaded originally as video with a static background. Apple Music is king of streaming quality, however neither Apple Music nor YTM can beat Spotify's algorithm as far as the kind of music I listen to is concerned.
imbnwa··on macOS 15.2 breaks the ability to copy the OS to another drive
Didn't they originally buy PA Semi while Jobs was on watch?
imbnwa··on AI Guesses Your Accent
I honestly thought that's what this was about lol
imbnwa··on React 19
This is the whole thing right here in this comment.

I work with mobx at work which just does a better job of letting us focus on business logic. Components observe computed models directly, no prop drilling, no context. The `createTransformer` map function is the key to mapping dynamic collections to computed models, handles GC in cases where you want to go from computed model to another computed model so you don't manage a bunch of WeakMaps yourself.

The React maintainers and community buy into complexity too readily. Probably why SolidJS (which unlike mobx also provides the view layer) is gaining traction.

imbnwa··on Go and Java: Rethinking Type Safety for the Pragmatic Age
They really ruined Optional not solving this then and there
imbnwa··on The myth that you can’t build interactive web apps except as single page app
Ah, yes, didn't know that service workers belonged to such an larger business plan like that.
imbnwa··on Teen behind hundreds of swatting attacks pleads guilty to federal charges
Specifically, SWAT teams didn’t exist until the 1960s. I’d wager their escalated use against civilians in their homes likely coincided with the War on Drugs in the 1980s.
imbnwa··on The myth that you can’t build interactive web apps except as single page app
>This whole direction is being silently discontinued anyway. Running browser apps has become harder, not easier.

I'm outta the loop, can you expand on how this is the case?
