Why am I writing this? I just clicked on a YouTube link and made the mistake of looking at the suggested videos while not being signed in. MULTIPLE fake doctor videos with multiple hundred thousand of views. Some with over a million. As a tech nerd that makes me furious.

I had no idea about comby, so I can't really compare the two

Disposable Code Is Here to Stay, but Durable Code Is What Runs the World Every day I seem to run into yet another post with someone solemnly opining that “writing code has never been the hardest part of software engineering. And hey, that’s smashing.

Disposable code is here to stay, but durable code is what runs the world, and it isn't going anywhere either. www.honeycomb.io/blog/disposa...

The 0.12 version will have minimal built-in plugin manager. It is still a work in progress, so use it carefully (if you use Nightly builds) and expect breaking changes without notice.

The 0.12 version will start to use Zig language to build Neovim itself.

This should improve overall Neovim development and should not have visible effect on users.

Wow, a comment on HN I actually agree with!

Hear no evil, hear all evil, hear some evil.

Ah, very nice! I remember thinking how they managed to pull off rendering the sequence diagrams on the fly like that, but never actually bothered to check the sources

what have you found recently?

(if you're comfortable sharing ofc, I'm genuinely curious)

With great satisfaction, I announce that my PhD thesis, titled "Code Smells and Refactorings for Elixir," is now publicly available! All the results and methodological details used in our research over the past three years can be openly accessed at: repositorio.ufmg.br/handle/1843/... #ElixirLang

TypeScript team: rewrites compiler in Go.

Go community: what do you mean your new compiler takes more than a minute to compile? Unacceptable. Dishonorable even. We are so sorry for this sub par experience. Not how we do things around here.

HN: why pick Go anyway?

Never, Never Underestimate Ukraine My country is not a Banana Republic that will simply bend to President Trump's wishes, writes Illia Ponomarenko.

My piece for TIME:

"Ukraine has options. Europe is still in the game.

Ideas on how to mitigate the damage from Trump’s siding with Putin are boiling. As long as we, the people, want to keep our country we love, there is always a way forward."

The Making of Animal Well | Documentary YouTube video by Second Wind

Our Animal Well Documentary is now available!

Thanks to Billy Basso (@animalwell.bsky.social) for entrusting me with telling his story, and thanks to @javedlsterritt.bsky.social for editing it into a wonderful video.

Really happy to be making documentaries again and there's more to come!

In collaboration with AGH University of Krakow, we're offering a free introductory Elixir programming course designed to get you started on your Elixir journey! 💡

📅 Course Details:

Duration: 4 weeks
Sessions: 4 sessions, 2 hours each
Instructors: Paweł Długosz & Klemens Łukaszczyk

morning: you report an issue with docker compose
an hour later: your issue gets fixed
evening: a release containing bugfix is published

Honestly, the greatest strengths of AI-driven programming (for me at least) are:

- VERY fast prototyping (especially UI stuff)
- Utility / automation scripts that I would never-ever had the energy to write myself
- Help with debugging
- FIXTURES in tests
- Writing tests for me

...and that's a lot.

Happy to finally share that our Animal Well Documentary (@animalwell.bsky.social) will officially premiere on @secondwindgroup.com on Thursday, February 27th at 10 AM CT.

Very excited to finally get this project out there, and grateful to have had the opportunity to tell this story.

Not at all. And you'll get a handful of other quality of life improvements too

Been using it for a decade before paying for the first time (though to be fair, payment option became available only a few years back)
