Sharing conversations with LLM as research/explanation/fact/solution is a broken communication pattern. Also, “AI suggested it” is a worst prove/excuse ever possible

Everyone’s joking about the Apple App Store source map leak, but “security through obscurity” isn’t security at all. Apple could open-source the entire front-end and only win from that — that code isn’t their secret sauce. Congrats to @svelte.dev team anyway. P.S. Do Apple still use svelte 4?

DRY is often confused as "don't repeat code," which was never the intended meaning. DRY is about knowledge. Don't repeat knowledge. You can repeat identical lines of code that don't repeat or leak knowledge. 1/2

front-end world moved from “new framework every month”(which are mostly the same nowadays!) to “new rust-based tool every month”. Just started a new project with Biome/Vite/Rollup about month ago - now I’m already being nudged toward Oxc/Vite/Rolldown… while my older projects still on webpack/eslint

Threlte 8 is Here! 🤗 Six months in the making, Threlte 8 redefines performance, flexibility, and developer experience for 3D web graphics using Svelte. It’s our biggest leap yet, powered by Svelte 5, exciting updates from Three.js, and tons of community input. 1/9

How Well Can You Hear Audio Quality? www.npr.org/sections/the... My results were not so impressive, from the 2nd try I've got 4/6 correct answers(1/6 on 1st try) with Sennheiser HD599 connected to laptop. Honestly, 128kbps, 320kbps, and uncompressed audio sound nearly identical to me!

How Well Can You Hear Audio Quality?

A hi-def test for your ears (and your audio equipment): Listen to these songs and see if you can tell the difference between an MP3 and an uncompressed audio file.

Gartner reports look charming, but in my opinion, they're often overvalued. The Hype Cycle & Magic Quadrant are good example of great storytelling, but they're rarely useful (and sometimes even harmful) for real decision-making

Obsession with having an opinion on everything is everywhere: monoliths/microservices, FP/OOP, React/Vue/Svelte, Android/iOS, Mac/Linux/Windows, static/dynamic typing, left/right - classic examples of tribalism While there are only two answers on all of these: “it depends” or “potato-potato”

Had to tweak UI for our long-untouched #Shopify App. Packages conflicted, so I tried upgrading everything - ran into tons of errors due to Polaris deprecations. Froze libs for now…

I’ve designed enough A/B tests to conclude—with 95% significance and 80% power—that A/B testing in business is pure gambling

I deleted Copilot after a year of using it, and I feel 76.54% more productive now. It’s like a prison break for my mind… Meanwhile, this post still got autocorrected by ChatGPT.

Sitting here for a while, and was never sure how to start. I think it make sense to post own thoughts here, so I hope I’ll be very subjective
