💥One of the best analyses, worth reading: "The defining feature of the Kremlin’s interference campaign in Hungary’s 2026 parliamentary elections is that for Moscow this is not simply an effort to keep a friendly government in power—it is a fight to retain its principal systemic ally inside the EU."

The engineering question that has the most impact: "Is this the simplest way we could do this?" If the answer references currently unresourced future requirements: be prepared to answer with: "YAGNI (You aren't gonna need it)" and try again.

One of the unique problems in React Native is naming debuggers. React Native Debugger (at least 3 projects used that name), Remote Debugger, React Native DevTools, React Developer Tools, Chrome Debugger, Experimental Debugger, Hermes Debugger - all bad. The only good ones are Flipper and Reactotron

💥🏳️‍🌈Today, Hungarian police summoned Budapest mayor Gergely Karácsony as a suspect in a criminal investigation and took his mugshot—for organizing the banned Budapest Pride march, which drew 200–300K people. His lawyer Csaba Tordai showed up wearing a Polish "Konstytucja" t-shirt.

🏳️‍🌈🇭🇺 Viktor Orbán’s Budapest Pride ban & 15 years of anti-LGBTQ laws began with Hungary’s new conservative constitution, penned by his close ally József Szájer. On Pride Day, let’s recall how MEP József Szájer was caught fleeing a party of 25 naked men in Brussels in 2020, violating Covid lockdown.

The worst part about passwordless auth is that after spending 30 seconds looking at my email inbox waiting for the magic link to arrive I don’t remember what I wanted to do in the first place.

After reading the new shiny ✨ Jobandtalent ✨ round announcement, I am old enough to remember when they fired a big part of their workforce after raising a big round with Atomico. We were in their office that day:

🚫🗣️Freedom of speech in Hungary: Orbán passed a law letting his government ban protests under the guise of “child protection,” aiming at the Pride march. Critics warned it could be used broadly—they were right. Now, Orbán to ban protests that cause major traffic disruptions. What will come next?

Going by their examples, when most folks talk about "Functional Programming", they really mean "procedural programming inside functions". And when most folks talk about "object-oriented programming", they really mean "procedural programming inside classes".

💥Hungary sliding further into authoritarianism: Viktor Orbán’s close ally, Speaker of the House László Kövér, banned the entire liberal Momentum party faction from parliament and fined them €175,000 for protesting Orbán's Pride crackdown—setting a precedent to ban other elected opposition MPs too.

There is absolutely no world in which this is a "setting" What ontological universe is Apple living in? If only we had some existing design pattern like "notifications" or "banners" to show users what's new??

The apple settings menu with a new item in the sidebar called "image creation tools are here" and a CTA that says "open image playground"
