Is there an app that unifies my [other place] and Bsky feeds?
My Christmas gift was a tad late. Now, time to let my hair grow and finally have the metal teenager moment I missed 😂
I'd like to PR a way to define "internal" attributes on Eloquent models that cannot be accessed from outside in favor of richer attributes, e.g returning a "Money" object and blocking amount/currency from being accessed.
Any suggestions for a better API?
No doubt that LLMs are a net positive when it comes to productivity, but I think a key element coding tools (e.g “build me this”) miss is the iterative, discovering process.
As you build something, you go “oh, maybe this API would be better this way”, or “that component should be split in two”.
Chatting with an AI and building allows me to retain a good chunk of that process — that’s why I feel for non-greenfield projects, this is better than using AI code editors. At least so far.

i’ve tanked two seasons of HBO’s Industry because I was promised it got better on the 3rd season
ghostty 👍
the new iOS photos app is disgustingly horrible
I swear that alone would make me consider switching to Android if I didn’t have other apple devices
hopefully they undo it, or allow us to go back to the old one at some point
Writing code that works is the bare minimum. The job is not just about that, but writing code that *is easy to change*.
It's a bit frustrating whenever architecture content is deemed as "overengineering"; apps don't have to and shouldn't grow into unmaintainable balls of mud.
whenever a new ai model is released or announced social media becomes a bit anxiety inducing for me. bluesky doesn’t!
This might be a bit of an uncommon take nowadays, but I think using LLMs to learn something from scratch is a bad idea.
They’re absolutely fantastic to ask questions to and go deeper in a subject, but compressing pages of documentation into a few responses must warrant some information loss.
Also, you don’t know what you don’t know.
When reading books, docs, etc, you’re exposed to additional, related information as you read.
With LLMs, it’s easy to only learn what you *think* is important.
A good exercise when building your models is to think “how would this be modeled if there was *no* database?”
Of course, IRL, it exists and you’re bound to it and will have to make some concessions.
Still, I feel it’s very valuable.
my muscle memory still makes me open the other app and tweet there by mistake
I've been practicing Far Beyond the Sun for 7 months and I can only play the first half so far 😅
My tip to eat clean when dieting is… to just eat clean
I feel a massive urge to eat crap (oreos, sushi, burgers, whatever) for 3-4 days, and then it stops and I feel absolutely no special desire to eat anything like that.
i’m still fat tho
