People talk about how AI is replacing search engines. I personally prefer to think they are filling the void left when search engines prioritized ads and engagement over quality results.

Can you spot the days large models like Claude perform worse ? I sure can, they start hallucinating a lot, a good reminder that eventually rolling your own as a backup might be not just a nice to have but necessary.

The latest improvements on GNOME and Ubuntu, the latest packages that make creating custom distros with slick interfaces (e.g. https://t.co/2NfxtMhYFE by @dhh ). The wish to stop relying on centralized tech. I really feel like the years where desktop Linux will shine are coming.

Some people actively wondering why install @openclaw instead of just using claude code yourself etc... When you can only use your laptop like this you understand why an agent that can use your computer while you attend to other things is a game changer 😉

Since the Cold War, successive US governments have gaslit Americans into thinking Europeans get free healthcare, free education and decent parental leave, while Americans don’t, because the US pays for Europe’s defence. It’s a myth that also helps them justify 750+ US bases

1/ Image comprehension ⇒ Unlocks full-screen app and browser automation 🤖 We thought text-based co-pilot and writing assistants were cool, but now that GPT-4 natively understands images, automating app and browser workflows based on screenshots is going to skyrocket 🚀

If you've faced graphql codegen bloat : Why our company replaced Golang+GraphQL with TypeScript+Prisma+tRPC by @KlitonBare

@instagram 2/2 .@instagram Are we in this dark place where a bad backend function and non-existent support leaves people helpless ? For a company that originally prided itself in quality, this is disappointing.

1/2 .@instagram After more than a month of back and forth with your support, it's still impossible to pay for ads on my girlfriend's account with ANY payment method. Yet she relies heavily on Instagram for business.

I just dropped spark for @ApacheArrow Datafusion and Ballista, the performance is simply... ballistic.

Does anyone have a method for #testing complex application workflows in actor based systems (so components that accumulate state) ? I guess it's akin to functional testing in a microservice environment. Suppose it's a transactional system that can't just do away with monitoring.

Yesterday, I had the following error in rustc: Overflow evaluating the requirement `&num_rational::Ratio<_>: num_traits::pow::Pow<u8>` Does breaking the compiler make me an accomplished Rustacean ?

My latest interview with @HelloPixelart CTO - Zuka Kakabadze @scalac_io is about why you should choose ZIO in your next project. Benefits of functional programming in ZIO. Check it out! #taskforcezio #whyscala @zioscala

When making, single source of truth transactionnal system, you'd do well to use a WAL and paxos. WALs are great, because they allow you to reconcile what happens after downtime or network partitions, and paxos helps you lock operations without needing to partition the space

How to make a lightweight @rustlang program with state : put rkv everywhere.

A word of advice on @rustlang my from-scratch dev build time went from 5 minutes to 1m30 after I switched to semver compatible versions of all dependencies and let cargo update do its job accross the workspace.

The best thing about #GraphQL is probably the playground... Giving me the economy of building an interface when iterating fast on a new project, you can build the UI when you've actually finished building the API.

What is the right balance between iterating fast (over code, architecture) and finding the best solution ? #Experience The more you train yourself to find the right solution fast, the better engineer you will be, and eventually everything you produce will have stellar quality.

What is #clean #code ? Clean code is when neophytes and people who don't know your programming language can read your code. Naming is hard, but the best time you'll ever spend on your codebase.
