Domain knowledge is really the most important in any business. If you're making software for a particular industry you won't get very far without it.

Same. I feel like a plumber compared to real engineers.

No, I'm serious. The previous Remix was rebranded into React Router. Remix 3 will not use React and will apparently not use reactivity either. https://remix.run/ There was a pres…

Games can afford the luxury to re-render everyting on every frame. The DOM? Not so much. This bottleneck could be alleviated if browsers shipped native dom morphing or even some kind of native vdom bu…

Microsoft should be scared about the Macbook Neo. They're going to lose a good chunk of the market because of it.

I get it at least once a day. Sometimes as "Update to Tahoe" and sometimes as "Install pending updates tonight".

This sucks. Sometimes they even disguise the update to Tahoe notification as "Pending updates to install later tonight".

Are they talking about the design language or the liquid glass material? I had to update to iOS 26 recently. The liquid glass material is by far the worst aspect of it... but if it could be disabled I…

In theory a computer should be able to model any physical process so I do agree it's only a matter of time. That said I don't think I will be alive to see it honestly. The current tech won&#…

I travelled to the US some weeks ago and was anxious but everything turned out ok. I'm happy I don't have to go back any time soon.

Deno hasn't been abandoned though. The company still survives. These layoffs are probably to focus resources on the runtime and subhosting product. Bun is in much better shape than it was in 2023…

You know any services as big as X or Claude Code built with Deno? AFAIK the biggest users of Deno are using their subhosting service (Netlify, Slack, etc) to allow third parties to execute TS code.

The idea of Deno is brilliant... but they should have either focused on Node compat from the first day (like Bun did) or just keep doing their own thing with built-in APIs to solve the most common nee…
