jorisw··on Canceling "Hey"
Downvoted for 'socialist society'.

May want to read the Wikipedia entries on both Denmark and socialism.

My problem with the part about housing is that DHH acts as if cities have enough shelters to accommodate everyone and these 'gypsies' are refusing to go there. I don't buy that for a second.

jorisw··on Scriptc by Vercel: TypeScript-to-Native compiler, no JavaScript engine in binary
Don’t see how compiling Typescript changes how little Electron cares about the host OS in terms of UI and how it just ships Chromium in order to show any UI at all

> The apps are just their Hacker News.

I like this line, but respectfully disagree that they're a 1:1. The difference being relevance and some of the dynamics of use.

Hacker News pertains to my profession. It's high relevance tech news with comments from peers.

I'm not following anyone just because I know them personally (or worse, because they're famous). I'm not posting photos or videos of activities that I want friends to know about.

There's no infinite doomscrolling either (I view the front page a couple of times a day) nor are there notifications interrupting me.

Software will never be truly stable as long as their environment (the world, ultimately) is not stable

Recommend checking out Ponytail — a pi extension that behaves like a senior engineer who keeps the LLM code generation in check, and the processing of your prompts just the same

jorisw··on It's getting harder to focus every day
I wish people could just admit to themselves how irrelevant all this social media content is, lose interest, and keep the apps shut (or uninstall in case there's no DM feature that keeps it installed). I can't imagine needing to switch devices for this.

I couldn't give a single shit what friends or acquaintances (much less strangers) are doing in their free time day to day. They can tell me next time I see them. I have Instagram installed, but only because certain people message me there. I never scroll even a pixel.

My biggest distraction? Hacker News.

I do the Do Not Disturb + whitelist thing on my iPhone.

I also disable any and all notifications of apps other than direct messaging apps. No group message notifications.

If 'mostly' means over 50% you could call this clear.

Otherwise I don't think this is clear at all.

Otherwise, what is mostly?

Mostly at the outset, or at any given time? Must the project move out when it goes from 49% to 51% AI-assisted code?

jorisw··on Codeberg bans vibe coded projects
So 'mostly' is the clearest they get here. Meaning more than 50% of lines of code? At any given time?

It's not really that Emoji filled. The screenshot is supposed to've been taken when a click on a heart reaction invoked a little animation.

I don't see anything about 'nailing' the physics either. It's just a design instruction.
