We have the most powerful personal computers ever at home and in our pockets yet we use them mostly as gloried terminals to Big Tech mainframes
A sign saying "I'm not interested in competing with anyone. I hope we all make it."

A black and white cat wearing a red necktie is giving a paw shake, looking like a tiny businessman who just closed a successful deal.

Strength is not for hurting.
I’m surprised he didn’t notice the clothes were already dry in between?
#jj-vcs has completely transformed how I work with git (in the best way). It’s worth your time to experiment with it.
[waking up as a frog] water feels warmer today. probably nothing to worry about
If only we could provide more value. 🙃
Are we training the systems that will replace us? In this DBBD clip, @ethanmarcotte.com explains how automation doesn't replace jobs overnight, it reshapes them. First you supervise the AI. Then your role is devalued. designobserver.com/compassionat...
Been trying to just build some side stuff. And that’s fun, of course, but I haven’t made any money in a while, and in a few weeks my credits gonna run out. I’d be on the street already if not for a supportive partner. Things are looking grim, but I just can’t bring myself to apply to burger flip.

Trying to not get distracted with learning a neat new VCS this Friday afternoon.

Neat. What are you building with this?
It would not be the worst thing in the world if Bluesky became known as the social media site people just hung out at and enjoyed themselves with
These plans are too big.
There's definitely enough there already that I'm planning to move away from Figma (who just raised prices) when my billing cycle ends. You can't beat free (for single professionals anyways) / self-host-able!
Penpot is looking pretty good! While there are a couple of small things missing that I'm used to in Figma (*cough* component variants), I have confidence they're building in the right direction.
