Even before vibe coding I was already using this Photoshop copycat as webapp: https://www.photopea.com/

Also www.reddit.com is/was doing the same back button hijacking. From google.com visiting a post, then clicking back and you would find yourself on Reddit general feed instead of back to Google.

POSSIBLE FIX:

I think changing your default DNS servers to Google 8.8.8.8 or Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 might bypass the spanish sunday ban on Cloudlflare.

macOS + Cloudlfare 1.1.1.1 https://developers.cloudflare.com/1.1.1.1/setup/macos/

Google 8.8.8.8 https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using

I also didn't know the acronym IR. A good solution is passing the URL to ChatGPT and asking "what does IR mean in this url: "

New comment by giorgioz in "If DSPy is so great, why isn't anyone using it?"

giorgioz — Mon, 23 Mar 2026 16:20:44 +0000

Loved the article because I exactly hit the stages all up till the 5th! Thank you for making me see the whole picture and journey!

I think a problem to DSPy is that they don't know the concept of THE WHOLE PRODUCT: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whole_product

Look at https://mastra.ai/ and https://www.copilotkit.ai/ to see how more inviting their pages look. A company is not selling only the product itself but all the other things around the product = THE WHOLE PRODUCT

A similar concept in developer tools is the docs are the product

Also I'm a fullstack javascript engineer and I don't use Python. Docs usually have a switch for the language at the top. Stripe.com is famous for it's docs and Developer Experience: https://docs.stripe.com/search#examples It's great to study other great products to get inspiration and copy the best traits that are relevant to your product as well.

I actually didn't notice since there weren't gradients.

On one side what you are saying it's true but on the other side it rings like "it was better when it was worse" which I always despised in the past. It's hard to accept when it's your own craft that is being automated but we must move on. Otherwise we'll be like the mechnical clockmakers complaining about Casio watches.

snarky critical or mocking in an indirect or sarcastic way.

I think the constructive information is mentioning Github Pages were built on .md file and they have existed for 10 years. That's true and useful.

The snarky part happens when phrasing the sentence "Ah you guys only doing this now? It has existed for 10 years" that part is talking about something constructive but it's also trying to diminish the discovery of someone else. We all find and develop at different times. In general is better to be constructive and happy someone else is joining you in using something than underline how it was already done in some way by you or others and this new discovery is irrelevant. Everything that exists already existed (in some other shape or smaller parts).

Yes it's awesome! I'm creating a lot of CLIs with Claude Code to interact with external services. Yesterday made a CLI for the Google Search Console so I can prompt "get all problems from indexing in Google Search Console and fix them". Same with Sentry bugs. Same with the customer support "Use the the customer support cli skill to get recent conversations from customers and rank bug reporting and features requests and suggest things to work on"

The monorepo make it easier to ship the overall product but harder to ship parts of it. I've used a monorepo for the past 13 years and I got all shared packages with version 0.0.0 and I still haven't figured out a simple way to share just some parts of it like a CLI. Does anyone have a monorepo and publishes NPM packages with source code of only that folder? Sub-gits required to pull in multiple places...

that's true. Take care because in the YCombinator there is "Don't be snarky". Ask yourself how you could have provided the same useful insight without being snarky: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

The search seems keyword based rather than meaning based (like Google). Searched 'under garden basement' and got garden furniture. Searched 'gazebo' but didn't get any gazebo cads

When technology is rapidly progressing up in iperbole or exponential it looks like it reach infinity. In practice though at some point will reach a physical limit and it will go flat. This alternation of going up and flattening make the shape of steps.

We've come so far and yet we are so small.

They seem two opposite concepts but they live together, we will make a lot of progress and yet there will always be more progress to be made.

New comment by giorgioz in "Tesla’s autonomous vehicles are crashing at a rate much higher tha human drivers"

giorgioz — Fri, 30 Jan 2026 14:02:01 +0000

Yes on one side Tesla is not transparent but on the other side the author of the article is an hypocrite given they went with the click-bait title "Tesla’s own Robotaxi data confirms crash rate 3x worse than humans even with monitor" Tesla secrecy is likely due to avoid journalists taking any chance they can to sell more news by writing an autonomous vehicles horror story. Given the secrecy we don't know what happened, yet the journalist did choose to go with the worse scenario title.
