This job search period is crazy. The stress of going from application to application. The lack of interviews. Almost feels like nothing is working. But you keep pushing and saying that "hey, it's going to be better soon. God's got you." And you still fight yet another day. This too shall pass.

Two-state, tri-state, four-state...why should we concern ourselves with this anyway? I say users should not get this for free at all; therefore, I introduced a new mode in this article called capitalism mode ✅ codepen.io/editor/sunka... #css

Illustration of a satirical theme settings card labeled “CAPITALISM MODE.” Large text reads, “Pay $99 to change the theme.” Below, it says dark mode is a “premium” emotional support feature, while light mode is included because the invoice needs contrast. A theme toggle shows the current theme as Light, with a note: “Theme change fee: $99.00 per vibe shift.”

Two-state theme or tri-state theme system? Which do you prefer? Here's a quick summary of the global argument about "which theme mode is the best?" css-questions.com/blog/the-the... #css

I think it's the joke phase of it that I find the most entertaining. It feels like pre-AI era of banter of "which framework is the best?"

I certainly see it as a friendly back and forth (we're starting to get into the joke phase of it now). In this current climate of slop output and skill erosion, seeing professionals experimenting with and analysing a small interface pattern at length is a very welcome change of pace.

Successfully moved from Vercel to Cloudfare. I love Vercel, but I wish I did this earlier. Especially with the high price tag Vercel has and commercial requirements pertaining to my product. We are not just there quite yet.

Why does it default to this though? Does Claude/Codex really think vanilla is often the better pick than using frameworks/libraries? I've tried it myself one time and unless specified, it would default to vanilla HTML/CSS/JS.

I ran a prompt for a completely new website without specifying *anything* about client-side architecture, just "keep code lean, modern, and elegant", curious to see whether Claude would use React. Apparently, to Claude "lean, modern, and elegant" meant "use no frameworks". Interesting. 🤔

The demand, unfortunately, is no longer in how well you write and understand code; it is in building and understanding complex architectural systems and agents to speed up product workflow or make your service "AI-friendly". We must prepare for it while still maintaining quality
