Holy shit this list of features is enormous.
S3, Postgres, CSS imports, HTML imports, inline C, JSONC package.json, color conversions, ORMless object mappings.
Amazing!
The most inscrutable icons in my dock are in the IDE and LLM sections
Opening a project that has been only in zed inside other editors and it looks SO wrong. Not just Zed’s own font, but theme too, I guess. My eyes glaze over and I don’t want to read the code. Feels like one experience I had reading an ancient Python codebase that wrapped a C library. Weird.
Wishlist: good web UI for flipping through diffs. I’d like to be able to export a few commits to a set of diffs, which I can then show on a webpage in sequence.
Especially useful for explaining how to build something, or showing LLM changes and how I had to modify them, etc
I wish I could give o1 access to a regular Git repo and have it commit its changes in a branch, with my instructions in the commit message. Surely someone else has had this idea? Where can I buy this.
Charming captcha (is such a thing possible?) from LibraryThing
htmz is a neat hack
Finally able to give the Project Blue gift that I’ve been sitting on since February. Happy birthday Noah!
Ice crystals in the morning
Been a Gandi customer since at least 2009, maybe before. As of today, I’m fully migrated off. End of an era.
I think the funniest thing to me about the Apple privacy lawsuit which was just settled is the notion that guys wearing these things at this restaurant have tastes that could not possibly be predicted by a computer that wasn’t cheating.
[two Siri users] said their discussions about Air Jordan sneakers, Pit Viper sunglasses and “Olive Garden” caused them to receive ads for those products.
AI chatbot feature request: a button to summarize the current state of the conversation and any code or other artifacts into a single short message to send to a new chat conversation, to drop baggage of undesirable iterations and reduce token consumption rate.
Cool stats from the past couple of years
New Years Day brunch, mini baked potatoes and caviar
Every time I go on a bike ride or get in a pool it amazes me that the company from California has produced two biometric authentication technologies: one that is unusable when wet, and another that is unusable in direct sunlight.
it’s nuts how my entire generation got its feelings hurt so bad by intentional listicle ragebait that the cultural connotations are (still!) above the fold on Wikipedia for avocado toast
Baked-in-advance Christmas Day quiches (Christmas Eve whisky for scale)
btw, quiche is mega easy and the best way to elevate it is to make your own crust. I bastardize Martha by combining the ingredients and smooshing them into the bottom of the pan. Dreadful, I know. Tastes good though
