Just had a chat with my manager from my previous consulting gig. Because of new admin + tariffs + and partially AI, their clients are not starting any new projects, which means, in his words "we are doing our biggest layoffs of all time & my job is on the line". I feel bad for everyone letting go.

Yet another day I regret using LangChain. If you ever write an AI app, just stay out of it!

Reddit post from 2 years ago; same issue (minus Monorepo) www.reddit.com/r/WebStorm/c...

Webstorm struggles SIGNIFICANTLY (and very slow) suggesting TS types when used with ZOD validation and NX monorepo. VS Code works like a charm

Seriously thinking of switching to VSCode after being a loyal user of JetBrains+Webstorm for a decade. TypeScript is just too damn slow! If vim binding in VSCode was any decent, I'd probably have switched by now. How come WS so slow to show TS errors/hints compared to VSCode?

Oh, the irony! Not going to lie, it has been 16 years in the US and for the first time I am a bit concerned about this situation for myself and my family. Something about this time it makes me feel not so good.

Webstorm currently seems to be beyond broken so stay away from it for the time being. I've added some contents and they show up in the editor but if you open the same file in other editors, the content isn't there. So you'd think the file is saved but it isn't

on a daily basis I typically use @github.com copilot, and @msty.app for questions (mostly not about code). I wouldn't use AI tools to bootstrap a new project - I enjoy doing it by hand too much. if anyone (non-AI) offered to 'do' a first draft for me, I'd probably say no too ... #ama roe.dev/ama
How much do you use AI tools in your daily work? How much do you rely on it for new websites (e.g. AI prompt to generate the boilerplate code for a website, etc.)?

Started testing out msty to test out LLM models and streamlit to stop me from pulling out my teeth with front end programming boredom. Respect to the engineers who have the patience for it and do a good job. If you’re in the product space and testing out llms Msty.app is worth a look 👀

For some reasons, when a user comes in and says “I will buy a license to your app if you add this one feature”, I actually feel less motivated to add that feature. If you are already finding some values out of an app, just buy a license and then make demands. If not, just don’t. It’s a free app!

Just got a big performance boost by replacing Vue's `watchEffect` with `watch` and told the team that moving on it's an anti-pattern for us. It's one of the very few things I don't like at all and find really no use for it. It not only introduces naive subtle bugs but makes code very unreadable too

I have been experimenting with a small self executable project using Bun.sh plus ElysiaJS and the experience so far has been beyond amazing. For what I need, I couldn’t have built it without Bun.This is the future. Excellent work @jarredsumner.com

It always surprised me not to see Google being the frontrunner of GenAI as they seem to be always doing interesting stuff with AI but now with the release of Veo 2 and Gemini 2.0 Flash, I'm more then convinced that they are now leading the way (OpenAI/ChatGPT of course is more popular)

This! Although JB IDEs do a good job at showing these as warnings, I still miss it every now and then. Also, initially I thought proposed void was a good option (for its flexibility). On a second thought, I’m inclined towards floatable to enforce it at the API level.

The truth is, now that this is gaining steam, it’s clear they’re interested in joining for the followers. And that's ok with me. I get it. But just straight up own it.

One thing’s certain: we’re never going back to a pre-Gen AI world. Coding without Co-Pilot (or similar) is unimaginable now—not for solving the hardest problems (it often falls flat) but for tackling the mundane, like mapping a CSV header to a class and writing a function to read it.

I've been asked if the @msty.app will have Black Friday deals. The answer is no, and here's why: I never want early supporters to feel like they missed out or made a mistake by purchasing sooner. In fact, I believe in rewarding early adopters, not punishing them.

My monitor suddenly started acting weird - was flickering really bad and had "ghost image" retention issue. Someone suggested that I play this video for about 30 minutes. I didn't believe an iota that it would work but kid you not it actually did!! No more flickering or ghost image. WTF?!!
