I like Ryan and think he's well intentioned. At the same time, he has provided air-cover for folks who serially polluted the digital ecosystem for those less well-off, and was happy to dismiss me, no matter how much quiet work I did in the background *before* raising my voice publicly.

simple enough it's possible to reason about from first principles is much more important than "the agent knows it"
drk@drk.wtf · 2mo agoI see the justification for going w/ React is "agents know React". Yes this is true. Still a bad call.

pai-sho continues to be, the coolest thing i've built with @iroh.computer a util i use daily, that's essential in my stack thank you for everything iroh!
Andy Gayton@ndyg.ca · 7mo agoa little util that's become essential in my stack. if you work on remote vms and want to interact with services from your local laptop, pai-sho makes specified ports available on your localhost. ports reconnect when your laptop wakes up. built on @iroh.computer 🙏 github.com/cablehead/pa...

new release for http-nu :: v0.17.0 :: the embedded cross.stream store jumps to 0.13.2 (new unified `xs.<kind>.<name>.<event>` lifecycle topics, data-safe but a breaking change for `--services`), Datastar updated to 1.0.2, and Nushell to 0.113.1 :: github.com/cablehead/ht...
Last year, Mythwright reached out to the fabulous @indiebard.co and got her help with making a new trailer. This was featured in Frosty Games fest (@frostygamesfest.com). The wishlists continued to grow. Meanwhile, Mythwrights awesome designer team helped me firm up the core game loop.
I've finally got around to documenting the `cross-stream` crate. It's a standalone cli / binary, but you can also embed it into your projects; docs.rs/cross-stream... (it's built on @fjallrs.bsky.social !)
blessings to deb and ian, though their love could not last, their operating system lives on

After reading the Github write up on their PR page performance improvements I wanted to see how quickly I could prototype a performant diff viewer using Datastar. largediff.fly.dev largediff.fly.dev/doc

bit of an easter egg.. the ux is still a bit rough, you can give an LLM the stacks2099/README.md and then the url of the instance it's running in, and ask it, "embed the site we are working on, in our current stack"
stacks2099 release :: v0.4.0 lots of focus on international keyboards; öé alt-* keybindings are gone, trying a <leader> style of ux, mod+k and then plain character style actions. there's a navigate mode for plain characters, only diffs will be in the next one github.com/cablehead/st...
