I've been waiting 7 fucking years to delete this Firebase project. Building on top of Firebase has been one of the worst decisions I've done in my dev life. Only a single project remains and it will die in a couple of weeks. Let's go!

They also decided to not fix major memory leaks in the Zig version. They even used those as marketing for the Rust version ffs.

You would think Google having the best engineers and unlimited AI usage would be on top of things... And yet the Google Cloud Storage client has had a vulnerability since April when CVE-2026-41907 was reported. github.com/advisories/G... npmx.dev/package/@goo...

Re-sharing this for all creatives out there. It's so easy to get lost in the woods. Thanks @eiscreamsherlock.bsky.social

a photo of page in a book with the test:

"Ahndraya Parlato
Hibernation
Stop actively looking at photographs and stop making them for a period of time. No blogs, no books, no websites. Visually hibernate. Try to forget what you think a "good" or "cool" photograph is. Try to forget what you've been taught in school.
After forgetting all that, try to remember why you wanted to make pictures in the first place. Do you still feel compelled to photograph? What do you want to photograph? Write down your answer.
When you feel hibernation is over, begin making images
again."

Won't be reporting it given there are already multiple issues about this... but I wish Mozilla would focus on improving the browser instead of useless stuff (AI etc).

Here's the @firefox.com FOUC bug in action on the new NodeJS docs. beta.docs.nodejs.org I see this multiple times per day even with cached CSS files. It's quite annoying.

Loving this psychedelic prog rock album. Polygondwanaland (2017) by the Australian band King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard.

From the Schneider report you referenced it looks like it's essentially how large/complex a model is how big the training data set is. I don't know but I find "traditional AI" to be a weird term which doesn't convey this to me.

I was very excited about trying @rocicorp.dev Zero and then I saw it needs 375 deps. Yeah no, I'll pass.

The Dish (2000) is probably my favourite Sam Neil movie. It's a low budget Australian film based on a true story.

I was looking at the @tanstack.com docs for Start and quite frankly this is insane. Not only is verbatimModuleSyntax extremely common these days... but how is it even possible for the user do anything that can leak server code into the client?

The @solidjs.com team is making an amazing job with Solid Start 2. Dependencies have dropped from 479 in v1 to 137 in the last v2 alpha version. And apparently a Rust version of vite-plugin-solid is coming up which would drop all the 50 or so Babel deps.

I get a ton of these... Sometimes they load after like 10 seconds but often they never load at all.

APPARAT A Hum of Maybe It's chef's kiss. So far my favorite album of 2026. It's been super interesting to see (well listen really) how Sascha's work has evolved over the years into this unique blend of genres.

PSA Bun will no longer fix bugs on the Zig version. github.com/oven-sh/bun/... I will keep my current Bun projects on 1.3.14 (the last Zig version) for the time being. Going back to Node for upcoming projects. Maybe in a year or two I'll give a shot to the vibe coded Rust port. Or not.

We also have plenty of examples that went nowhere... or that took decades for very little progress. Eg solar cell efficiency. And I imagine there's been a lot more effort and money thrown at AI compared to probably most technologies.

BTW most data centers are not in Queretaro *city* but a municipality called Colón. They already struggled to keep farmlands irrigated even before data centers started arriving. There's a huge water deficit in the whole region.

Come on Rich. Querétaro (the state) is not Cancún. It has a semi desert climate and is suffering from severe droughts. This is a typical landscape during the dry season:
