Kinda ironic coming from the country that keeps trying to get chat control passed in the EU.

This site makes a big point of using the term "RESTful" repeatedly, but it seems to be JSON-based by default?

I don't know why modern web frameworks insist on continuing to misuse or misapply the term despite a fairly large amount of messaging recently about how exactly this term is misapplied, and the resurgence of frameworks and tools that do correctly apply it, e.g. HTMX, Datastar, Alpine AJAX.

Otherwise, this looks cool. I'd encourage you to un-roll-your-own docs and use something like Starlight or Docusaurus so you can have usable search and versioned docs.

What’s with the pivot away from the purely speed based testing? I recall getting the ick when I saw it as your primary metric for engineer goodness not too long ago and I don’t see any mention of it anymore on your site. Have you pivoted to something more sane?

ETA on international calls availability? Will there be another announcement, email blast, etc? UK, Canada, Australia or EU to start?

Nope, just the installer, win11

Rather poetically, this C software in 2025 segfaults on launch. I would file a GitHub issue if this was open source, but alas, nope.

You should make it draw from a palette of colors, like an actual terminal does, and easy to customize. Base16 would likely be enough given the web has opacity and a bunch of other ways to slightly modify colors. I'd also like to see how much of this doesn't need to be React™, even if your application is entirely React. Maybe splitting the CSS and the component logic?

This thread is crazy, it reads like 2 people arguing but there are actually zero repeat commenters, like some sort of debate conga line

Using this tool requires disabling SIP, so not "easily bypassed" at least from a malware perspective.

This title is super weighted, Valve makes it quite clear that users do in fact own a thing, a license for a product on Steam. This is fundamental to games with online DRM.

Ent heavily uses joins and does support multi field indices, you should read up on the docs. You can show the queries it’s running using a debug client.

It’s not a Graph DB under the hood and uses any normal relational db quite normally beneath the DX

Also, firebase? seriously? this is a company with like, low level software engineers on payroll, and they are using a CRUD backend in a box. cost effective I guess? I wouldn't even have firebase on the long list for a backend if I were architecting something like this. Especially when feature-parity competitors like Supabase just wrap a normal DBMS and auth model.

I'm a self taught software engineer who has built products for startups from whiteboard to production. I'm looking for roles where I can learn new things and build cool products. I thrive in builder roles where I am given the ability to fully own large projects.

I don't think they are planning to do this; they are at least maintaining support for whatever MacOS (Metal?) and the Nintendo Switch use in addition to Wayland, which suggests to me they are dropping X11 as a hard dependency not as a usable backend.

Only way to get interview experience is to do a lot of interviews.

I don’t know what you’re trying to prove here.

This is totally different tech and a totally different video.

It’s pretty easy to create photorealistic work in blender when you have high resolution textures and photogrammetry of what you’re reproducing, I’d challenge you to find similar textures of planets or every building in New York City.

The video authors focus seems to be mostly on the shaders and volumetrics used for the large scale “simulations” not on making insanely high fidelity assets for the speaker or etc.

It’s also worth noting that the most jenky thing by far in this video is the animations/facial simulations which are not even consistently solved in billion dollar productions yet, let alone one guy

I also added a bit about accessible text contrast

Should disambiguate from https://astro.build/ and various other name collissions in your title somehow, maybe "Astro App | Explore the Night Sky" ?

Also the "Identifiers" section and some other things have extremely low contrast text, 2.35:1 instead of the recommended 4.5:1 for body-size text. You can check on issues like this using the accessibility tab in Firefox or Lighthouse in Chrome.
