I don't post much here, and I do consider that a moral failing.

About a year ago, I started to work with @nuevotokyo.bsky.social on what would become VWFNDR™ + MBL: a camera app for Android (soon iOS) made with @nuxt.com and Capacitor. We released it to the public in May. Today, two months later, we just crossed 100K downloads and 1M photos taken. Thanks 🖤🟥

The Full Stack premieres this Thursday at 12pm PT on @codetv.dev’s YouTube channel — join to watch these teams of builders compete to create real products over the course of 6 episodes hosted by @kelseyhightower.com and presented by @awscloud.bsky.social

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

More and more people I deeply respect and have learned a lot from over the years feel like they are speaking into a void, to the point where they are losing motivation to continue making content, which got me to write my first post on my site in over a year... www.kevinpowell.co/article/tell...

It's not fun to make tech content as much anymore, too. I'm doing some because I actually like it, but it feels like I'm shouting into a slop-driven void nearly everywhere. It's really tiring. I get so much joy reading individual blogs and newsletters still (like yours!), at least.

>I desire to connect with people. I long for the days where I was vulnerable and shared my struggles with engineers who charitably stepped up to support me. I miss taking what I learned from those struggles and sharing them back out as a blog post or presentation All of this.

If you have a developer education budget at work, I would really encourage you to use it on your favourite developer educators. A lot of us are deciding whether or not to keep doing this stuff, and that support would help send a signal that we should keep going. ❤️

It's the best.

✨ It’s the final day of the launch sale for my new course, Whimsical Animations! The price will nearly double in a few hours. whimsy.joshwcomeau.com You can see the exact amount of time remaining here:

What do you all use to track your book reading? I've been using literal.club off and on for a couple years, but haven't really stuck with it. Trying to get back into reading atm and figure I'll give it another try. literal.club/trostcodes

Someday soon I'll likely tell someone that I'm a pretty big fan of InfoWars. Didn't have that on my bingo card.

Goodbye, get lost, and we'll see you soon.

Watched Hoppers last night. It's funny how all children's movies feel like wOkE pRoPaGaNdA because of extreme messages like "we're all in this together" and "humans are animals." Good movie.

Introducing Cursor Camp, a website to hang out with other cursors. Out now :) > neal.fun/cursor-camp/

I wrote about why I quit my job, and how weird and tiring tech feels these days.

Do I belong in tech anymore?

On quitting, the spread of AI, and the loss of an ideal.

I personally almost immediately click away. I rarely—if ever—read through the post. And I do take note of the author, unsubscribe from their RSS feeds, and stop reading their content. This may sound drastic but if the author is using AI to write their posts they're likely to continue doing it.

Cynthia Dunlop@cynthiadunlop.bsky.social · 4mo ago

When you hit an article that smells like AI, do you immediately click away? Hold your nose and keep reading if the topic is interesting? Take note of the author and never read their work again? Please share! forms.gle/UcpUPzZjaV8W...

It’s finally happened. After 18 months. Finally, a media merger you can root for.

✨ Have you ever heard of Disney’s 12 Basic Principles of Animation? The very first rule, “Squash and Stretch”, can make motion feel *way* more satisfying. I just dropped a brand-new blog post that shows how I’ve been using this technique in my own work: www.joshwcomeau.com/animation/sq...

do the people getting bent out of shape over this, despite apparently having no clue what it is or does, also fly into a vicious rage over, idk, spam filters? i must have missed the seminar on differentiating Good Linear Algebra from Bad Linear Algebra

We hear the concerns about AI. Our goal is to use this technology to give people greater control, not to generate content. Attie uses AI to help you create custom feeds without having to know how to code.

I spent 2 months learning about quantization and am extremely proud of the post I've written about it. I think these are some of the nicest visuals I've ever made, and I love how this compression technique invented in 1898 is being used on the bleeding edge in 2026. ngrok.com/blog/quantiz...

important if you use Vercel for web projects they've updated their ToS to allow using your data to train AI models, and free plans are opted in to that by default you can opt out under Settings > General > Data Preferences

Yesterday was my last day at Deno. From today, I'll be cheering the talented team on from outside the org. This also means that I'm now considering my next move in the DX/DevRel/Technical marketing space.

DOOM fully rendered in CSS. Every surface is a <div> that has a background image, with a clipping path with 3D transforms applied. Of course CSS does not have a movable camera, so we rotate and translate the scene around the user.
