I wonder what it felt like to work in the dotcom boom. Was there a pervasive sense that the internet is inevitable but also that things were insane in ways that obviously wouldn't work?

Had a fantastic time at @localfirstconf.com. Started off relatively stark with discussions acknowledging the general political instability of our times and how much data sovereignty matters. Ended with an absolutely wild demo of @inkandswitch.com's patchwork project. Lots of good bits in between.

Anyone interested in an effect meetup in NYC?

Yo @davidcrespo.bsky.social, y'all been running any local models on the oxide racks?

Published my first crate in a while. Made a webview cli last night: crates.io/crates/webvi.... It's great for letting a CLI agent dynamic general some UI tool for you.

crates.io: Rust Package Registry

VoidZero is joining Cloudflare. Our mission stays the same: to make JavaScript developers more productive than ever before. Vite, Vitest, Rolldown, Oxc, and Vite+ remain MIT-licensed. Evan and the VoidZero team will continue leading them.

Didn't expect a random Thursday to be one of the hardest days of my life, but here we are. Life is weird. Lovely and strange and sometimes absolutely tragic.

Web 3d explorer for @oxide.computer. Built in three.js/r3f. Tonnes of little interactions and details in this. Poke around, and take a look at the guided tours. explorer.oxide.computer

One cool thing we're doing at @jazz.tools is reimagining migrations. Instead of migrating your data, you tell clients how to read it, inspired by @inkandswitch.com's Cambria paper. Last week I built this interactive diagram to show how it works. Check it out in our docs: jazz.tools/docs/schemas...

The nascent HTML-in-Canvas API is exciting to me not because of flashy effects, but because it extends the semantics that the DOM can (tractably) represent — as a tiny example, it's possible to show an element in multiple places, cheaply, under arbitrary transforms. folkjs.org/demos/html-i...

Cirrus (my single-user PDS than runs in a Cloudflare Worker) now supports granular OAuth scopes and permission sets. github.com/ascorbic/cir...

Gonna be 36 on Saturday. Come help me celebrate by building cool things at sideprojectsaturday.com

NY's requirement to publish the creation of a business in the paper for 6 weeks is kinda insane. You even have to post if you're doing a new DBA. I get it's likely just a subsidy of legacy print media which on the face of it is fine. It's $1.4k to do a publishing in BK, so everyone uses Albany.

I'm so fucking tired. Just so, so tired.

I keep finding all these new & exciting tools and services. Historical me would be delighted and dig into them and build some mental context about where they sit in the ecosystem. There are *so* *many* now. It's cool, but also so very exhausting. Too much of a good thing?

Ahh, claude code doesn't let you override tool call behavior on PreToolUse. That's too bad.

Was trying to publish some NPM packages for the first time in a while and wooo... the DX there definitely still needs a lot of love. JSR is *so* easy, heck, they'll write the publish action for you.

All my projects tend to have the same redirects /chat -> discord /on/:platform -> other social /gh/:repo -> repos Put together a lil @bomb.sh page to surface these!

When I'm working on a difficult piece of software there are all these moments of introspection dredged up by the friction that make me continually question if it's the right way to do things or the appropriate direction. Coding agents remove a lot of that. It's easier to go the wrong way longer.

Love @astro.build, hands down my favorite metaframework. Glad to see they're joining @cloudflare.social, I think that's a great fit.

Heya friends! It's been a minute! sideprojectsaturday.com is happening tomorrow! If you're around NYC and need something to do Saturday morning, you should come out!

The nice thing about AI is that I can ask it any question, no matter how stupid and feel fine about it. The bad thing about AI is now anytime I ask a human an informational question I feel bad about wasting their time.

I'm just out here doin' the best I can

I bought some open ear head phones made for running and have been just playing ocean sounds at work in the morning. Kinda helps ground me while also not blocking folks out.

@recurse.com's local host last night was awesome. Great talks, wonderful company. Frederic Kettelhoit's Komucha lang (github.com/fkettelhoit/...) was particularly inspirational. Love me a lang with an effect system.

Yo, side project saturday is happening again this weekend: sideprojectsaturday.com/rsvp

As I reflect on this year, I'm grateful for all the wonderful people whose paths I've intersected with. My life is better for knowing each of you.

This is cool: github.com/coder/ghostt.... The stated goal is to replace xterm.js using ghostty's vt-ghostty lib compiled to WASM.
