Maybe for developers, but I can't imagine most people going back to the terminal. The smartphones won and has the largest market. It would be especially awkward to use a terminal on a touch display. Maybe with voice this will be easier, but I doubt people want to go around in public talking and giving instructions to their phone. UIs are here to stay.

I do not use terminal. Cursor is IDE. The point is not Cursor either. But AI agents with smart model like Opus 4.5, who does heavy work.

I got it last year, as a man in my early 30s. My doctor didn't believe me but his eyes widened as I showed him the rash. It took him one second to say that is shingles, with no doubt. If you get it you have to get to the doctor ASAP to get the antiviral medicine before it spreads. It is the most painful thing I have gone through.

I'm pretty sure I got is because of stress. I quit my job, sold my home and all my stuff to travel for a year. I was awarded shingles the week after handing in my resignation.

I’ve self medicated with OTC acyclovir before getting a stronger prescription and it worked quite well. The trick was to diagnose quickly, the tell was the itching wouldn’t stop even while scratching.

Pro tip: keep some cold sore oral medicine at hand.

I wonder if this is the new normal? Weekly Cloudflare outages that breaks huge parts of the internet.

It’s a catch-22: why build a RISC-V CPU if there’s no software for it, and why write software if there’s no CPU to run it?

Until there's a common, well-supported, and sufficiently performant family of RISC-V SoCs or CPUs with support for existing well-supported GPUs, RISC-V support will be a massive pain in the ass of a moving/fragmented target.

This has held back Arm for years, even today the state of poor GPU drivers for otherwise good Arm SoCs. There is essentially a tiny handful of Arm systems with good GPU support.

The way Microsoft are ruining Windows makes it seem like enterprise users are the tech debt they want to get rid off. Like making their servers non-deterministic by serving random ads or leaking secret content to their AI. It makes sense that they would rather have their customers run Linux on Azure, so they don't have to do R&D for their own OS.

I don't think they claim they are using semver. Lots of companies/projects use "major" releases just for the added hype.

They would want the user base, i.e. those who has gone out of their way to pick something different, than Microsoft/Atlassian, like Notion

It's got to be pretty small and not the right customer base for Microsoft.

Despite Slack's presence in the startup space, Teams dominates the market (fair play or not different story).

I'm not sure I buy Microsoft being that interested in Notion's customer base.

This will be the replacement for my iPhone 13 mini. Although I wish they would make another mini instead.

I wonder if the thinner profile will make it more comfortable in smaller hands (both in terms of reach and center-of-gravity), but I'm skeptical.

It's actually not that thinner (1.9mm compared to 12 mini) so I doubt it will. And it definitely can't make for the huge size difference (134mm of extra width).

Ditto. This adds 10.5mm of width, but shaves 4mm of depth (2mm on each side, as measured when holding in one hand). So the net increase is only 6mm. I won't be pre-ordering one of these, since I want to feel it in-store prior to purchasing.

The weight is also significantly (in percentage terms) greater.

All or nothing mentally wont get you very far. You're digital device is probably made in China, but that doesn't mean you'll want to store your personal data in a Chinese data center. I try to choose European whenever possible and avoid or limit the use of American, Chinese, and Russian tech.

I don't see the need for Lit anymore. Lately I have just been raw dogging web components without any libraries. Having a nice templating system like JSX on the server makes it a breeze.

Part of using web components, for me, is that it is just javascript. There is no upgrades or deprecations to think about. Of course those things still exist on the server though, but it is easier to maintain it there.

The great thing about web components is that you can build them however works best for you.

Native web component APIs don't have the DX that many people expect though, because they are so low-level. Lit provides just that declarative reactivity on top.

Personally I find that lit abstracts quite well some pieces of functionality that you're going to implement yourself anyway to not have to write manual <template> all over your code plus the plumbing to add it to the DOM.

Yeah, it does require some more boilerplate. I abstract some of it JSX, and with LLMs writing boilerplate code isn't that annoying anymore.

I find that there is little practical difference between "html" tagged template literal and writing JSX. Not to mention there is a compilation step in JSX.

Don't know the current state of lit-html and similar, but Typescript support was the biggest thing missing for me when I used it several years ago.

In simple scenarios like just dropping it in an html page, codepen, or something like that I really enjoyed it though.

I mean sure, as long as it runs on the server. Personally I feel JSX is way more expressive. The JSX I write runs on server side rendering to HTML. That way there will be no flash of unstyled content, cumulative layout shift, or any other jank. It looks correct even before the javascript has been downloaded, except it isn't interactive yet.
