I would love it if "Subtractive Engineering" became more popular. An analogy (because we love those), you can get rich extruding plastic and sending it all over the world, but removing plastic and preventing plastic from entering the environment is a much harder task. htmx.org/essays/code-...

But I’m gonna find out.

HARPIST:
Yo Henry VIII -
Who wrote that sick lute riff yo’ jamming?
HENRY VIII:
Why...

PRODUCER:
Congratulations Henry
Your lute thing is a hit and your story is now one of uncomplicated musical success!
[Show a panel with lots of Beatlemania-style scenes of success for Henry the musician - swooning tudor girls, playing lute on stage, waving to fans as he descends from his golden carriage. In the middle of it in Tudor lettering are the words]:
“UNCOMPLICATED MUSICAL SUCCESS MONTAGE”.

@taurean.bryant.land thank you so much for squire.guide! My partner and I have been using it to help with our ADHD and it's been great ♥️. One small feature request/feedback, on the Today view it doesn't show the Area of each task, I think that'd be useful (at least to me)

I did not realize that emulation was this far ahead. The previous iteration was able to do very simple behavior like extending and retraction a tongue based on smell, but now they have an uploaded fly brain capable of controlling a simulated fly. Won't be too long until lobsters at this rate

Running AI agents as Unix executables that self-improve has been one of my wilder ideas lately. You can pipe agents: `think weather | think song` The agent eventually writes a determinative script after enough runs for simple programs. It’s as secure as a browser too. thinkingscript.com
Self-improving AI Executables
Write programs in your own words. Run them in a secure sandbox. Install them like any other tool.

There’s a long-standing idea that implicit throw/catch isn’t as practical as it seems, and errors should be returned explicitly (as in Go). For TypeScript, a proposal suggests returning either a value or an error so the type system enforces handling. errore.org

Btw you don’t need to be a web spec author or work for a browser vendor to contribute to this. If you spot some incorrect data (either says it supports web it doesn’t, or says it doesn’t when it does) then open an issue — or better yet a PR! Make things better for everyone, including future you!!

I’m SO excited for this! I’ve read almost every book from the Cosmere, and out of all the streamers out there, I trust Apple TV the most when it comes to faithful adaptation (especially when the author is involved, and Brandon was very clear he wanted to be 👀)
R. Alex Anderson@ralexanderson.com · 6mo agoUm... What? This is awesome because a) Brandon gets full creative input and b) Apple TV is a phenomenal studio these days. This is still preliminary (in Sanderson's own words, this would be step 3 of 8), but exciting!
