Rochester Castle yesterday
A lively festival crowd gathers in front of Rochester Castle, with the medieval stone keep decorated with a large Progress Pride flag. People sit on camping chairs and blankets near a festival stage, with trees and a blue summer sky in the background

Adding AI features to GItHero (coming soon). It uses the GitHub models API so no additional setup is required. No API key, nothing. It just works.

@joshwcomeau.com hey, I think this is not working correctly in your blog. The second counter is not updating automatically. It does when scrubbing only. Tested on Chrome/iOS.

Like I said weeks ago I’ve been leveling up my cooking skills. Following recipes is good for getting good results but it’s better to understand the underlying structure of them to create new recipes based on what you have and what you like. This way I’ve uncovered some “cooking frameworks” 🧵

Morning ☀️😋
The image shows a well-balanced breakfast with a mix of sweet and savory items.

On one plate, there are scrambled eggs seasoned with black pepper, along with a slice of toast topped with thinly sliced prosciutto. The plate has a decorative brown and white swirl pattern.

Next to it, there is a white bowl containing a breakfast mixture of oats or yogurt, topped with fresh sliced strawberries, blueberries, dark chocolate shavings, and what appears to be chia seeds.

Beside the food, there is a cup of coffee with a light crema, served in a modern white cup.

The setting is clean, with a neutral-colored countertop, and the meal looks nutritious and appetizing.

Editing tables in GitHero.app just got a big improvement. You can navigate cells using tab and shift+tab like in a spreadsheet, and you can prettify the markdown with a slash command.

This is the general mental model that I have 👇
class Context {
  stateHooksValues = []
  stateHooksCounter = 0
}

const stack: Context[] = []

function useState(value) {
  const currentContext = stack[stack.length - 1]
  if (!rerendering) {
    currentContext.stateHooksValues.push(value)
  }
  currentContext.stateHooksCounter++

  return [currentContext.stateHooksValues[currentContext.stateHooksCounter - 1], () => {
    // ...
  }]
}

function createElement(Component) {
  console.log(`createElement(${Component.name})`)
  const context = rerendering ? new Context(/* TO DO */) : new Context()
  stack.push(context)
  const returned = Component() // when using useState() in the component, it will use the latest context from the stack
  stack.pop()

  return returned
}

I don’t get these LinkedIn emails. Someone shares a post, I don’t know the title nor the content and they ask me to “comment” it? How can I comment on something I haven’t read yet?

Jaja. Me corrijo: hago pull ups con kettlebell si es que se llaman así. Aquí una imagen (pero yo no las hago desde abajo, que para eso ya hago squats).

During the last 5 months I’ve lost 10kg (22pounds) by eating a bit healthier, walking more and doing exercise at home (15min almost every day). This is my only equipment. I don’t have the time to go to the gym and I thought I’d never be able to do it at home. AMA

When I follow someone from their profile, I usually want to go back immediately but this banner hides the back button and I need to wait for it to go away. On twitter you can swipe up to dismiss it. Making it dismissible would be great. Thanks!
