Sam talking about #GPT7 in 2021 That's cute but that knowledge he mentions belongs to everyone, not to private corps' internal agenda. We are not ready for what's coming in 2027. I didn't want to believe what many analysts said last 2 years... but it's becoming real.

I don't get how Mistral is one of the most valued EU companies in AI, and how they got so much funding

Higgsfield plugin for Blender is definitely better at modeling than GPT alone but it is incredibly expensive. This Gequa was created from a refernce 2D image (official artwork). First one: Higgsfield prompt, second: created procedurally with primitives with GTP6 #PokemonWindsWaves #Blender #Pokemon

My first game with #GPT6 Astra 😆 It is kind of good at modeling worlds but so bad at character modeling #godot #blender #gptastra

Fable was able to create a design system, a Linear clone, without any visual guidance... 😮 SVG icons and everything

timeless.build I am cooking modern Web Components for humans, robots and aliens as well 👽 HTML-first, CSS-first, A11Y-first Progressively-enhanced and SSR-friendly 0% runtimes, 0% dependencies. Styles will be a drop-in Component showcase coming soon 🥰 #webdev #frontend #devcommunity #webdesign

I think it's time for a durable UI library and recipe book that builds on top on latest modern #WebStandards and survives frameworks. Working on timeless.build 👨🏻‍🍳 🍳 👀 #webdev #frontend #webcomponents

Happy #PrideMonth now more than ever, specially after a pullback in corporate support due to political and anti-DEI pressures, and legislative restrictions on LGBTQ+ expression. We are only supported when it's financially interesting to big corps? Your masks have fallen off.

3 settings you should always configure in your pnpm-worspace.yaml : - blockExoticSubdeps - minimumReleaseAge - trustPolicy This time it seems chokidar trust level has decreased 👀 #webdev #npm

What's coming next (my prediction): - Android with improved Gemini + Chrome integration to generate PWAs hosted in your phone - On-device native app generation, integrating any service you need. - Your IDE is your phone. - Paid apps having a hard time. - Raise and fall of AI slop in marketplaces

This is a months project but I got a working Coolify alternative in just a weekend. It involved a strong planning phase with ADRs, PRDs, and implementation checkpoints, all documented in the repo. Coolify is cool, but I wanted something more opinionated that has a builtin docker registry + graphana

It's mindblowing that for the @remix.run framework v3 they are building everything from scratch including an Auth lib, an ORM, a UI library probably as well. I wonder what's the plan for essentials like FE state management, markdown, caching, a vite plugin to glue everything together, etc. #Remix3

#Windows11 was supposed to be the last Windows? They got that right - just not for the reason they intended Why are they still pushing Copilot features no one asked for? Best Linux adoption campaign ever. I think it's time for #Microsoft to embrace Linux, the same way they did with Chromium.

I've released "dnd-manager", the library behind the box drag & drop functionality in PokéPC . I needed something ultra simple and performant able to handle large grids of draggable items and none of the existing and well-known libraries were convincing Docs and playground: itsjavi.com/dnd-manager/

#Cursor did it again. Changing price model without a proper communication. You are forced to use "Auto" + Composer, or pay extra if you exceed the limits. For the same amount of work I was doing in one week, it now costs me 4x or 5x more API tokens, using the same models.

What if we used AI to spread good news, verified facts and love instead of hate? Bot farms and AI have been used for many years to spread hate and misinformation. It’s time to re-balance this, because I am afraid it’s not going to work with censorship or more regulations.

Completely vibe coded using GPT #Codex 5.3 + #Cursor, I created a port of pret/pokecrystal GBC assembly code to #TypeScript with vite in just one afternoon 😱. Still struggles though making WebAudio sound like a GBC. No game frameworks, just canvas and web technologies.

👀 Snorlax 💤. Well it seems that #Openai has soft-blocked me because I clicked too many times on their "stop generating" button. Why blaming the user for a flaw in the UI design?

I'm now officially a Senior Tab Key Engineer 😀 thank you for the gift @cursor.com.web.brid.gy It's been a busy last year building a lot of things on the side. It wouldn't have been possible to ship so fast without the help of AI for rapid prototyping and code reviews. #cursor #cursorIDE

Despite the unfriendly and toxic tone and that no one is forcing you to use @bun.sh 's APIs, I agree with some things said there in points 2,3,4. There are some of the reasons I keep using Bun just as a script runner and not as a production Node replacement. github.com/oven-sh/bun/...

Adding a border/stroke to the shape of an image using Sharp and Node. For a long time I thought this was only possible with imagemagick, but I see it's also possible with the Sharp lib. gist.github.com/itsjavi/7fc6...

My journey into #selfhosting has just begun. I’ve spent many sleepless nights getting many of these services to work together. It's worth many tutorials. I still can't decide between Plausible vs Umami but we will see. Despite many struggles I am very happy with #Coolify + #Hetzner

Scrolling a large virtual list of variable-height items (1550) with tanstack/virtual in Firefox vs Chrome/Brave/Safari Even after using overscan (of 25), and optimizations like requestAnimationFrame, the Webkit/Chromium browsers can't beat the rendering performance of #Firefox on my M1 Max Mac.

I was a little hyped about #Nordcraft, but after trying it you quickly realize how vendor-locked you can quickly become. You don't own your code, everything is on their platform. Even exporting components to Web Components depends on calling a script on their side
