I'm noticing a trend among companies adopting AI that leaders no longer write requirements, user-stories or anything before passing it off to development. Not only is it exhausting to read these long-winded spec files - but, we're losing the conversation. I miss that!

Imagine a future where your TV/box can seamlessly search and play any streaming catalog you have access to. Now is the time to regulate streaming. These horrible apps, not the cost of content is driving people towards piracy.

One of these Bun forks should be called - "Dough" for reverting back to Zig - "Loaf" for after baking - "Sourdough" because they're sour over the Rust rewrite Endless possibilities folks!

I think launching a full browser for rendering PDF or SVG is absolutely bonkers insane! It's like shooting pigeons with an elephant gun or trying to hit tiny nails with a sledge hammer. Please stop and smell the complexity.

I self-host a little n8n instance. I also subscribe to their security newsletter. I have my concerns about trusting this platform with automations and public web hooks. Are there any more secure alternatives?

This e-reader checks a lot of boxes for me: - Compact - Backlight - Supports custom firmware - Great battery-life But, I just recently got to a place where I only need ONE cable to charge all my devices. I'm not going to let Xteink ruin that for me, so I'll wait for the next one.

I tried Fable briefly. It read my requirements document and told me that it violated the terms of use. The project in question was a shopping list app without implementation. Guess I'm waiting for the open-weight models to catch up.

It's hard for non-technical people to understand that #atproto (Bluesky, and friends) really is a different breed of social software. One where our data, and connections are no longer taken hostage by the platform and we're free to store our data wherever we want

After feeling overwhelmed with large spec files, I'm playing around with a compact YAML based requirements format for projects. I just ran an LLM discovery of an existing project where it did a browser/code sweep and captured the requirements with minimal edits.

Parents of the skies! How are you managing your kids' Internet access? Both in terms of blocking, but also monitor what they're searching for and stuff like that.

Our freedoms stem from the fact that most of us can voice our opinions, and vote without revealing our identities. Without that secrecy. Bullies can strip those freedoms away with a carrot, or a stick. Banning encryption and requiring identify-verification is dangerous. 🧵1/2

If security-capable models are outlawed, only outlaws will have security-capable models. It's far too late to put the cat bag in the bag. Welcome to our new reality.
