Both can be true and I have both opinions also in me. Love the progress, worry about the consequences of not being careful with it.

He does say in this post:

> I’m getting better at using them and get some boost from the models. It is a new skill, and it’s not like I haven’t constantly been trying them. You have to be really careful, they can increase cognitive fatigue, and all the vibe coded stuff is still slop (where’s all this new magical software that the productivity improvements should imply?).

But even that can be difficult at times. My roommate had once a racing bike with a tire so tight, we struggled immensely getting it on.

And even without such a difficult tire, imo most people would struggle if you’d ask them to change a tire of a bike, especially the back wheel.

They didn’t mean that Safari had a problem on rendering, but that their phone is so narrow, it often highlights pages that weren’t tested properly for mobile.

It seems the 13 mini is 375px wide, which isn’t even that narrow. The smallest I normally tested against was the width of the iPhone SE with 320px.

I’ve used asynq [1] at my past job. And although development is not as active anymore, they have a new contributor and we never encountered any bugs. It has been really solid and we relied on it heavily.

I recommend to try out Vichy Catalan[0], tastes really good and has a slight salinity to it.

I switched to Apple Passwords this week. Really good passkey support, 2FA support, best iOS integration. You can even share passwords with others. Sadly no first party cli support. If you only use Apple devices, it’s really solid.

Why not? I do the same, I tell it the exact content, but I don’t have to do all the rest. My blog is a react based (because I like interactivity) and has no asset pipeline, so it’s not as user friendly to edit the content as e.g. a markdown file.

In that instance, you are right, but there are often cases where you need to do multiple queries / updates spanning multiple tables in a single transaction, then you do need a generic transaction wrapper.

Be aware that it is bits, so 62.5kb. But I agree, the internet is still usable with that.

> Figma runs untrusted user plugins in your browser by running them in a QuickJS engine that is compiled to Wasm.

According to the linked blog article, this is not what they are doing, but rather an option they explored. They use JavaScript Realm shims to isolate the execution.

Curious, what did you get out of it? Counseling? Some action plan? A reflection? Seems intriguing to do, but would like to know how it helped you exactly if you don’t mind sharing.

That’s true, at least I would have eaten it. I did leave out boiled eggs with holes after cooking them for at least a day in the past. It depends of course, I don’t live in a super humid and hot climate, results may differ there.

Does the same apply for cooked eggs? I would have thought all bacteria is gone from the shell after the process, making EU and US cooked eggs virtually the same. A short search seems to agree with that.
