Someone asked why RCF was not made sooner as it is not particularly special. I think it's because it cost about $50k in dev payroll (4 designs over 2 years- & this is not SF rates). Good software is not a fun hobby project, shipping is a grind and someone has to pay for it!

People who said that JavaScript wasn't a real programming language back in the early 2000s, you're our origin story. You created this monster.

Since the 80s, I have been told that LISP was obsolete. Now LISP dialects are more popular than Pascal. Clojure and Emacs Lisp have more repositories than Visual Basic.

suddenly I have all kinds of "mairix" stuff interrupting my workflow. It's in org and it's in Gnus. What in the world is this?

Difference from Mount seems to be the use of a map instead of namespaces (I'm not sure what this means), and that Clip has better parallel system support and async between components. Looks like Juxt has made another good product -- but I don't think I have any pain points on the things it addresses. Shall I stick with Mount for my full-stack web-apps? github.com/juxt/clip#compariso

"Master" is not a racist word. Does this need to be an unpopular opinion?

What's the adage about "better to use 10 functions on 100 things than 100 functions on 10"? This proves it false. [:humor]

Do you know about :is() in CSS?

It's pretty handy!

Firefox vs Brave: Brave is based on Chrome , and has some powerful hype right now. But what else ?

RT @plexus
This is what happens if you try to download and install Firefox on Windows

Bing: "you don't need to download a new browser, we recommend Edge"

Windows: "to protect your pc we recommend only running ms verified apps, use Edge"

Disgusting

A great idea, and a nicely done April 1st

A friend’s startup did a privacy-preserving voice assistant w/ on-device ML including CV. Partner built nice prototype I saw at CES before startup exited to a Big (partner didn’t go to market).

We get asked“when is Brave doing Alexa or Echo private alternative?” It could happen. twitter.com/brave/status/15098

I learn and because life is short. Programming is cool of course but honestly it's a shitshow. The complexity + dependency breakage, the "tooling" + constant changes are not healthy. I am a noob and for this I have the authority to say. I'd prefer not to.
