This is a very accurate graph of anything in my lifetime in the US.

A graph showing two lines, one green labeled "something good" which is higher on the y axis and level for half the graph. Below is a red line labeled "some bad thing" also level for half the graph. Thex axis is labeled "some metric". Once they cross a dotted line labeled "Ronald Reagan", the two lines rapidly move in opposite direction with the red line moving up and green line moving down.

I just noticed that BOTH Apple and Google have capitulated to the fever dreams of a dictator who shits himself and rapes children.

Google and Apple maps both showing a “Gulf of America.” For shame! Google and Apple are traitors.

this probably wouldn't take long, but the obligatory snappy name and website obviously takes longer.

I've had ideas rattling around in my head for a while but not quite hitting coherence.

What does a "rich terminal" mean to you as a developer? We're in a really weird place right now with regards to UI and UX, with chat as a normal mode of operation being everywhere, yet we're constrained to two major paradigms: the terminal user interface, and the instant message. Both come with really weird limits to their affordances.

And there's prior art here — light table, jupyter notebooks, observable hq, rich REPLs — but they're usually this weird hybrid of not quite transcript not quite live program that I find somewhere between unsettling and frustrating.

I do however think it's well past time we abandoned monospaced type as the core way we think about source code, and at the same time, built better user interfaces than that allows, without going full "this is a program with its own interface”

It's weird uncharted territory.

FOR EXAMPLE:

In the claude code remote feature it is sometimes possible for the means of passing auth credentials to fail. So claude code has a fallback of writing the API key or OAUTH token to a single well-known file because sometimes one of the several means of inheriting the fucking most important secret information in the entire thing doesn't work.

I'm not a security person but that seems like a pretty bad thing to do that maybe someone should look into.

I have never heard of Ethel Cain before her tdov instagram post, but my takeaway is this:

Damn I wish I could sound like that when I sing. I was singing bass in the choir at 14 though, so I don’t think there’s any amount of voice training in the world that could get me into her range.
