Handy is awesome! I used it for quite a while before Claude Code added voice support. Solid software, very good linux and mac integration. Shoutout to Parakeet models as well, extremely fast and solid models for their relatively modest memory requirements.
AI-generated code can be useful in the early stages of a project, but it raises concerns in mature ones. Recently, a 280kloc+ Postgres parser was merged into Multigres (https://github.com/multigres/multigres/pull/109) with no public code review. In open source, this is worrying. Many people rely on these projects for learning and reference. Without proper review, AI-generated code weakens their value as teaching tools, and more importantly the trust in pulling as dependencies. Code review isn’t just about bugs, it’s how contributors learn, understand design choices, and build shared knowledge. The issue isn’t speed of building software (although corporations may seem to disagree), but how knowledge is passed on.

Oh in that case bsky is basically the same stack, they happen to have a react-native-web app with Expo. Maybe its the dozens of analytics that is being processed every minute.
Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but why does Bluesky feel so much faster to load and interact with compared to X? On the surface, both have similar interfaces and equally rich content, yet Bluesky consistently feels snappier and more responsive, even though it’s the newer platform.

I used to be overly pedantic about the kinds of things programmers often obsess over—like micro-benchmarks, the whole “I use Arch, by the way” attitude, and other obnoxious quirks. But this quote stuck with me and helped me move past that shallow, one-upmanship view of computers. Great show to ones who haven't watched yet.
Not surprising. This reminds me of HBO's Silicon Valley:
Ron LaFlamme: So Pied Piper, You're one of Peter's compression plays, huh?
Richard: One of? How many does he have?
Ron LaFlamme: Not too many, like six or eight.
Richard: Okay. Why are there so many?
Ron LaFlamme: You know how sea turtles have a s*t ton of babies because most of them die on their way to the water? Peter just wants to make sure that his money makes it to the ocean.
That's amazing! It's a really healthy approach, and even though it could easily be automated, it's impressive that you take the time to personally connect with them.
By the way, I love your new venture and have already signed up. Wishing you all the best!
Hi! Congratulations on the launch; the product looks fantastic. Are you experiencing any slowdowns with a paid service like Tiptap? Last I checked, some of the most basic and popular features were behind a paywall. Have you considered using an alternative like Lexical editor?
