RIP Graham Greene. Every time he popped up on screen when I was a kid, my mom would excitedly point him out for being an actual Native on the screen. Able to be deadly serious and infinitely hilarious (even in smaller roles like Last of Us), he ate up the screen. Nʌki’wah brother.

I can't wait to work with #Elixir in production...it just gets better and better! iamkonstantin.eu/blog/less-gl...

Less Glue, More Product: Why Elixir Shrinks Architectural Complexity

If you’re building a backend mostly alone, Elixir lets you avoid service sprawl and ship features faster.

Mike has world-class skill and drive, and gaming owes him so much even for just running ludum dare. Not just indie gaming, we all now AAA benefits from our labor. That he's without a project is criminal. Hire Mike yesterday please. #gamedev #indiedev

Mike Kasprzak❓🦈🍁@distraction.engineer · last yr.

So uh, is anyone looking to hire a developer with an uncomfortable amount of knowledge about #atproto and #activitypub, experience building from scratch and running a social network (@ludumdare.com), hacking on GPU drivers/network protocols/the Linux kernel, plus a couple decades as a pro gamedev? 🤷

@ludumdare.com I'm wondering if there's a sponsor or other workaround in place for the October #LDJam to happen this year? Or it's not known yet but still a 'maybe'? If not, I totally understand (please do take care of you and yours!) 🙏

I finally found the 2025 way of interacting with cookies from a LiveView. Much thanks to @steffend.me! Pretty elegant, hope it gets merged into LiveView soon. gist.github.com/SteffenDE/38... #Elixir

Google is now *requiring* you to make your address & email public to publish an app. I've looked into PO Boxes, etc., but they start at hundreds of dollars per year, which is way more than it's worth just to keep a couple of games listed. They really don't care about small publishers. At all.

I've found a pattern from adventure games that applies to programming. When you pick up an item, it has exactly one use in a future task. After that point, it's spent. Same is true for values in a data structure. Anybody else use this heuristic? Does it have a name?

Nice article from @atila.io www.smashingmagazine.com/2024/11/the-... — any timeline for the sequel?

The Hype Around Signals — Smashing Magazine

From KnockoutJS to modern UI libraries like SolidJS, Vue.js, and Svelte, signals revolutionized how we think about reactivity in UIs. Here’s a deep dive into their history and impact by Atila Fassina.

Anyone else find it weird that a) Dell has a security advisory starting with DSA-2025 while it's still 2024 and b) that it is the main reason for a critical BIOS update but not be listed in their security advisory database? www.dell.com/support/home... Sus much, or am I missing something? 🤔

If you're using svelte-headless-table, how are you handling its lack of Svelte 5 support (and general lack of updates)? 1️⃣ Reinventing the wheel 2️⃣ Sticking with Svelte 4 3️⃣ Using another project (do tell! :) ) 4️⃣ Deprioritizing your own project for the moment 📊 Show results

Sad to see really cool projects like github.com/bryanmylee/s... go unmaintained. I wish FOSS funding, especially for projects like this, were more universally available.

Took Cursor out for a spin. Pretty neat, but a few defaults could be improved, IMHO, or at least made into options. 1) Using "Fix with AI" automatically opens a new thread, where the AI loses all previous context; running this multiple times can lead to it alternating between 2 broken suggestions.

PostgreSQL: Don't Do This. https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Don%27t_Do_This

Yeah, that's an explicit philosophy in Godot that the engine shouldn't crash, and recover from errors as gracefully as possible. It can take time for new contributors to understand why. Surely developers want to find and fix such issues and a crash is a surefire way to flag them?
