wait audiobooks is = reading? Do you find the retention of info as valid? I have a hard time focusing at least in my experience haven't tried audiobooks in a long time.
At least for me the effort of scanning, reading, and thinking about the authors perspective and the grind is where the knowledge sinks in for me.
I don't really care about the web builder, a better slide deck creator I'm down for with MCP capabilities, pulling in things like Atlassian & Dyantrace metrics for slides would be nice including github issues etc.
if you loose an edit jj op log is incredible, I've saved a ton of work more-so now with AI's making mistakes. Also workspaces are super fast compared to git worktree's - same concept, different implementation.
I agree, that was a bit of an interesting approach but more-so than not it's been better in DX even though you have to 'unlearn' long term it's been a benefit IMO, but a soft one, not something you can measure easily.
So glad to see this on HN, here to support it. JJ is amazing, the hardest hurdle was not the tool but the toolchain and ecosystem when I started ~ 2 years ago. It's grown rapidly and is incredible to see the community grow!
YES YES YES! Excalidraw is amazing, I recently embedded it into my vibe coded project to add version control integration with it. Honestly one of highest quality tools I've used for my workflow, does what it needs to do and doesn't get in your way.
Jujutsu honestly is the future IMO, it already does what you have outlined but solved in a different way with merges, it'll let you merge but outline you have conflicts that need to be resolved for instance.
It's been amazing watching it grow over the last few years.
I get your points here; I've had a similar discussion with my VP of Engineering. His argument is that I'm not hired to write `if` statements, I'm hired to solve problems. AI can solve it faster that's what he cares about at the end of the day.
However I agree there's a different category here under the idea of 'craft'. I don't have a good way to express this. It's not that I'm writing these 'if' statements in a particular way, it's how the whole system is structured and I understand every single line and it's an expression of my clarity of the system in code.
I believe there a split between these two and both are focusing on different problems. Again I don't want to label, but if I *had to* I would say one side is business focused. Here's the thing though - your end customers don't give a fuck if it's built with AI or crafted by hand.
The other side is the craftsmanship, and I don't know how to express this to make sense.
I'm looking for a good way to express this - feeling? Reality? Practice?
IDK, but I do understand your side of it; However, I don't think many companies will give a shit.
If they can go to market in 2 weeks vs 2 month's you know what they'll choose.
Honestly the M$FT thing might be the greatest thing to happen to the Linux community, so much fresh blood and hopefully far more curious tinkers will continue to make the ecosystem better.
I believe 2026 will finally be the year of Linux desktop.
A book I read 'spark' by John J Ratey, discussed this in a few chapters. Cardio/Running at 70% maximum heart rate lead to brain plasticity and even allowing new synapses to make connections and grow. However, he did argue an exercise that also required concentration e.g dancing, basketball, skateboarding would have better results.
It's absolutely crazy, that we misunderstand how our brains are intended to work in the old world. Our brains are for movement, the ability to think, plan and utilize tools appears to have been a happy accident that allowed our ancestor an advantage in survival.
Just a shout out to https://github.com/mbnuqw/sidebery. My favorite productivity extension. I'm a tab hoarder, this makes my life manageable and gives my Firefox all the screen real estate by using keyboard shortcuts to open/close the tabs easily.
I also use the Firefox css to hide the top sidebar, so I get maximum screen usage.
Is there a name for this phenomenon, where with limited resources humans get more creative? There are still some astonishing technologies that are ongoing today, but much more limited to the early era of computer science.
hey just curious, any reason why some of these articles I see from time to time don't apply some simply CSS? I don't mind the raw html, I'm mostly wondering if there's some benefit to it that I might not be aware of.
