Panta @pantas.net · 02/01/2025This app is the worst. Don't use it. The reason: pg collation is subtly different on mac vs linux, where your actual stuff will be running. Run db in docker or remotely instead. 010
Panta @pantas.net · 23/12/2024"A meeting can completely kill my flow" ANY context switching can kill the flow. Even between projects, or different types of work. It's just that most corporate devs only do one type of technical work, so all their experience with flow interruptions is centered on meetings. 030
Panta @pantas.net · 23/12/2024CSS tip: if you can't get a smoothly looping animation (eg. due to quirky way percentages work in different contexts), just increase the duration. Your visitors will probably never notice it glitch out once every 10 minutes. 020
Panta @pantas.net · 04/12/2024Is it even possible to rebase a hefty side-branch without having to do a bunch of fixes afterwards? And if not, don't you just end up with a lot of broken project snapshots in git history? There's gotta be a better way. 010
Panta @pantas.net · 01/12/2024Open source programs have so many little friction points that don't get fixed, because each one is the cornerstone of some regular contributor's built up habits. But computers are now getting old enough that we'll learn if OSS can improve like science - one funeral at a time. 020
Panta @pantas.net · 25/11/2024AI codegen will never create a mascot for an internal CLI tool, then convert it to ASCII art and add it to the help screen... just because it's nicer that way. Every increase in productivity comes at a cost. 020
Panta @pantas.net · 25/11/2024This is from my current react project. Turns out I've accumulated quite a few. 😅 Generally, any rule that's used as a passive-aggressive replacement for communicating with other team-mates is a good candidate to get turned off. (still trying to figure out how to make "consistent-return" work well) 010
Panta @pantas.net · 11/11/2024TIL you can use @{u} to refer to the tracking upstream git branch git-scm.com/docs/gitrevi... 010
Panta @pantas.net · 10/11/2024I’m not an iOS dev, but apple must have screwed up their ui responsiveness support pretty badly if this is the kind of scaling you get out of the box on iPad for an iPhone app. This is some early 2000s web era stuff. 000
Panta @pantas.net · 31/10/2024AI-s remove a lot of excuses for screwing up aria, and replaces them with blaming the AI. 000
Panta @pantas.net · 18/06/2023Is this energy usage thing just virtue signalling, or is it actually relevant to my life? 100
Panta @pantas.net · 10/06/2023This is such a bad UI. Instead of warning you ahead of time your prompt is too long, it lets you submit it and THEN errors out. And then, IT DOESN'T LET YOU EDIT THE PROMPT. So you have to rewrite everything into a new tab. Ugh. 030
Panta @pantas.net · 07/06/2023Out of the loop research with ChatGPT. They say, to this day, it's still trying to figure it out... 010
Panta @pantas.net · 06/06/2023Facially project the hatred in your eyes to the Atreides scum you destroy. 000
Panta @pantas.net · 02/06/2023Lefties bullying companies to be more woke then complaining they are only woke because of the bullying is gonna be the flavor of this pride month. 020
Panta @pantas.net · 30/05/2023Ironic that Rust forgot to implement strong ownership system in their own organization. blog.rust-lang.org/2023/05/29/RustC… 000
Panta @pantas.net · 27/05/2023Seems like typescript should be able to narrow the type here, instead of erroring out. Could be a very useful pattern. 010
Panta @pantas.net · 23/05/2023If we used classes for props in React, we could have both types and defaults in one place. Just sayin' 010
Panta @pantas.net · 20/05/2023Tim Cook is gonna show up on the next Apple event like this, then he's gonna reveal these are AR glasses. 000
Panta @pantas.net · 19/05/2023Nerd emoji on Bluesky vs Twitter. Maybe I'd get a happy nerd on Twitter if I paid for blue? 000
Panta @pantas.net · 18/05/2023Copilot keeps wanting to name variables with single letters, which tells me majority of developers out there are lazy about naming. 🤨 110
Panta @pantas.net · 18/05/2023God damn it, I don't want to see webpack shit for node libraries. Stop hiding your internals and show me the actual error! 😮💨 020
Panta @pantas.net · 17/05/2023I will not eat bugs, I will not ride the bus, and I will not call it "main". 010
Panta @pantas.net · 15/05/2023Since google gimped "referer" header to not include path, it's now basically the same as "origin". Old open internet features disappearing one after another. 010
