I got details I shouldn't have. I can confidently say this one's 100% on Google, and I will be disappointed if Railway is unable to share more. There is literally nothing they could have done to prevent this aside from avoiding GCP entirely.

I can't believe you're accusing someone of plagiarism because they had a similar idea that "claude code would be safer if it couldn't do destructive git calls". They also added much more protection, implemented it as a plugin, wrote thorough docs and have shipped many updates since.

You wrote a markdown file. Shut up.

This article makes ME feel like I'm going insane. Have you even read the React docs?

The article you linked about "patterns" in React is explicitly referencing patterns that are 7+ years out of date. Hooks were built to REPLACE those patterns, and they did a phenomenal job.

90% of this article is immediately invalidated by introducing a simple, 20loc "useQuery" hook (or, god forbid, looking at ANY of the libraries that provide similar. Shoutout React Query)

I really wish we could get more valid critique of React from people who actually understand the framework, instead of this drivel from devs who spend more time complaining in blog posts than reading the docs.

They don't need it. They offered to "notify me before any action is taken" and I politely declined - explicitly telling them to IMMEDIATELY take it down if they find anything at all

Hey y'all, I made the most prominent fork of this extension "Material Theme (But I Won't Sue You)"

The maintainer went off the deep end last year. He pulled the (originally apache 2) source offline, then started threatening to sue people for hosting alternative versions, including them in other IDEs, etc. Genuine lunatic.

Out of an abundance of precaution, I've taken the following action on my fork:

1. I have the VS Code team auditing it as we speak, and I've given them full permission to immediately pull it from the marketplace & force uninstall it from users if they find ANYTHING malicious.

2. I have audited the code base thoroughly (nothing seemed malicious)

3. I have removed ALL code related to changelogs, analytics, Open Collective and html rendering.

The only thing that seemed slightly concerning was the html + sanity loader for changelogs, so I gutted it entirely. Two PRs removed almost all the deps and over 7,000loc (mostly package-lock)

Repo is here if anyone else would like to audit https://github.com/t3dotgg/vsc-material-but-i-wont-sue-you

hi, maintainer of the fork here

just did a pass and removed everything that was not necessary - it's even less code now lmao

The only potential risk was the use of sanity to render a changelog. I didn't want to risk it, so I gutted that and a ton of other stuff. Just published a new, stripped down version.

Hi, owner of the fork here.

I did a thorough combing of the code base when I forked. Just did another audit and still not seeing anything suspicious. Gutting all of the opencollective and changelog code to be 1000% sure.

We do - we're using a really powerful hosted cluster at Azure (they have an exclusive licensing deal with OpenAI).

Excluding the client performance wins, we're up to 2x faster than ChatGPT.com using the same model https://x.com/ryandavogel/status/1878647963507163431

I've been using Affinity's suite exclusively for about 4 years now and I haven't looked back once. Briefly tried Photoshop again for the generative AI stuff and it was slow, unreliable and crashed multiple times.

HIGHLY recommend giving Affinity a shot, I've edited thousands of images with Photo and I can't imagine using anything else now.

Anyone who makes business decisions around what tech to use based on the creator posting memes is 100% NGMI.

Honestly I love how many of y'all self own with this. Keep using old, worse technologies. Us startups will take every advantage we can get :)

I’m lucky enough to get paid by the companies I’ve shipped on top of for years. I take a huge financial hit by working with them and not working with bigger companies that I dislike.

Here are my options: - Take no sponsors, make no money, stop YouTube - Work my ass off to convince companies I trust that it’s worth supporting my channel - Grift away to whoever will pay the most

I think I found a good balance. Nobody has ever paid me to say something I don’t believe. I am confident in every recommendation I’ve ever made.
