Dear startups, If I star your repo on github and immediately start receiving marketing/sales emails - I am going to mark every single one of those as spam.

Reduce syntax noise in your code with vscode-conceal (Similar to the vim conceal feature)

github.com/rocq-communi...

Because we can't always choose succinct languages for wider ecosystem concerns.

Here we have a svelte file with all closing tags concealed away.

✨ Exciting proposal alert: the CPU Performance API.

This proposal will add `navigator.cpuPerformance`, a value that measures the broad performance capability of the CPU.

That way, we can scale up/down our animations to make sure everyone has the best experience possible for their device. πŸ˜„

Not surprised that fleet is getting discontinued.

If you were using it, switch to @zed.dev - have been using it as the daily driver for months. Wonderfully stable and performant.

Signals/lazy-observables are a far better approach for reactivity and data-binding and react's popularity is holding back libraries that do it right.

GitHub - low-rb/low_type: Elegant types in Ruby Elegant types in Ruby. Contribute to low-rb/low_type development by creating an account on GitHub.

I have not been a #ruby dev for a long time, but its always delightful to see the kind of quirky userland hacks its massive flexibility makes possible.

Here we have the default argument feature hijacked to support a succinct syntax for runtime type checking. 🀯

Maybe focus on criticizing the perverse practice that is "planned obsolescence."

It is just a light syntactic sugar over passing a function to function. It just happens to compose well with inlining support in kotlin.

Far less powerful than macros, and all kotlin tooling perfectly supports it.

Gibberifier Gibberifier - Block AIs from reading your text with invisible Unicode characters while preserving meaning for humans. Prevent AI detection and plagiarism with advanced text obfuscation.

Interesting hack. Obfuscate your content from LLM scrapers while still keeping it human-readable.

One of those things that will only work until they get mainstream, but cool idea.

Microsoft Dependency Has Risks This is not an opinion, this is not an opinion... it's an opinion, isn't it?

This article is about MS but more-or-less applies to all US based bigtech now.

You need to start exploring open-source self-hostable/offline-first alternatives to software solutions on which you have critical dependency ASAP!
