The load bearing realization

[Rishabh Sharma @rishitells]

@sid_thinketh Try Jujutsu! (https://t.co/6JObw7zpRp). I switched to it completely 6 months back and have not used git since then (jj is git compatible so PR workflows work smoothly).

The 3–4 litres is only the distillery step. The crop water is part of producing ethanol by definition (no cane, no ethanol), which is exactly what a “water footprint” measures across the full supply chain. By your logic every product uses almost no water, but that’s just not measuring the thing. The standard figure is ~2,855 L/L globally (Gerbens-Leenes & Hoekstra, UNESCO-IHE 2009): https://t.co/I3FSIFkBG2

@Gaurav_LFC7 @jokeperaalta Sugarcane ethanol requires roughly 2,450–2,995 litres of water per litre of ethanol produced (Brazil to India), with a global average of ~2,855 L/L, according to UNESCO-IHE’s water footprint research (Gerbens-Leenes & Hoekstra, 2009): https://t.co/9siFCyAitK

I strongly believe there are entire companies right now under heavy AI psychosis and its impossible to have rational conversations about it with them. I can't name any specific people because they include personal friends I deeply respect, but I worry about how this plays out.

I lived through the great MTBF vs MTTR (mean-time-between-failure vs. mean-time-to-recovery) reckoning of infrastructure during the transition to cloud and cloud automation. All those arguments are rearing their ugly heads again but now its... the whole software development industry (maybe the whole world, really).

It's frightening, because the psychosis folks operate under an almost absolute "MTTR is all you need" mentality: "its fine to ship bugs because the agents will fix them so quickly and at a scale humans can't do!" We learned in infrastructure that MTTR is great but you can't yeet resilient systems entirely.

The main issue is I don't even know how to bring this up to people I know personally, because bringing this topic up leads to immediately dismissals like "no no, it has full test coverage" or "bug reports are going down" or something, which just don't paint the whole picture.

We already learned this lesson once in infrastructure: you can automate yourself into a very resilient catastrophe machine. Systems can appear healthy by local metrics while globally becoming incomprehensible. Bug reports can go down while latent risk explodes. Test coverage can rise while semantic understanding falls. Changes happens so fast that nobody notices the underlying architecture decaying.

I worry.

It's been 3 months since the 100x vibers started 100x vibin'! So, post your 25-years-of-work-equivalent project here, so we can signal boost and everyone can celebrate the Life's Work that you did in 3 months. Looking forward to it, Let's Go!!!

@persuingdreams It is AI generated. / altered There is no established iconographic tradition in any South Indian bronze school of Vishnu holding or displaying a Shiva Linga.

Wrote an article about how React Server Components integrate with a bundler. It's a deep dive into how code splitting works, how RSCs eliminate network waterfalls, how environment directives like "use client" work, CSS loading, etc. Check it out! https://t.co/LzcdzszrG3

[Devon Govett @devongovett]

I’m biased but if you’re looking for something new try React Aria! It has by far the most components and features, and the best a11y/i18n of any headless component library out there.

If you tried the Hooks before and were put off, try the components! Top-notch DX now. 😊

[patagucci perf papi @kenwheeler]

by the way, the science to prompting is knowing what the fuck you’re talking about in the first place

[Fernando Rojo @fernandorojo]

the react compiler is a rare technology. it’s worked exactly as expected, i’ve had zero bugs, and writing react is enjoyable again.

i spend so much less time thinking about object references as i code, and the performance improvement on native is big.

[Rishabh Sharma @rishitells]

@jordwalke With file tree on the left, esp. on wide screens your code stays in the center so you don’t have to turn your neck to constantly the leftmost part of the screen to read the code. File trees on the right are not neck friendly!

[Rishabh Sharma @rishitells]

@ryanflorence I wonder how different this would be from what @deno_land is also trying to do with their Fresh framework, which is based on Preact as well, and centers itself around web standards.

@jpedroschmitz Congrats!!

[Lynx @LynxJS_org]

Thank you for creating the game-changing library that has inspired a generation of declarative UI technologies. @reactjs

[Rishabh Sharma @rishitells]

This!

[Тsфdiиg @tsoding]

LLMs for coding are just non-deterministic compilers from natural language to programming language. And if you argue that this is what Programming actually is you are the kind of person who's gonna be replaced by them, congratulations.

@elegantunivers9 Even summaries. Imagine crafting a carefully and eloquently worded email to someone only for it to be dumbed down and summarised in 4 lines by an AI model. What seems like a great feature on surface is a tool that would kill nuance. Truly dystopian.

[Rishabh Sharma @rishitells]

We've been cooking up something special for months, and it's finally ready! 🍳 This ambitious rewrite of our codebase lays the foundation for a more scalable future. Kudos to our incredible team @hygraph for making this happen!

[Hygraph @hygraph]
