  • Fun look at making of "infinite monkeys" experiment (I 🧡 the web btw). If you're into #webdev or #javascript it might be worth a look, not a long read. https://www.lukeschaefer.dev/posts/making-of-monkeys/ I love how the (bad) state management library was called StateFarm. Also reminded that https://lit.dev/ exists. #HTML

  • My hobby these days seems to be collecting blog posts on developer experiences with coding and #AI. From the "it's God" (rolling my eyes) to "it's trash" (bias exploded). Most of them land in some range in the middle.

  • This is close to my take on #AI #webdev #programming as I've seen. https://kyrylo.org/software/2025/03/27/learn-to-code-ignore-ai-then-use-ai-to-code-even-better.html AI is a x10 multiplier – but 10x good or 10x not so good. If you know code then use it as a tool, it's good IMO. But just like copy/pasting from StackOverview without looking, using it blindly or with ignorance…
