En historie i 4 faner. Ser ut som Norge og jeg har en ting til felles: Vi liker å utsette viktige ting. Klimamålene er som masteroppgaven min, la oss vente til tidsfristen nærmer seg. Etter regn kommer... mer regnvær?

@spang If you haven’t checked out @LFeldmanBarrett’s work yet, I really recommend it!

@rcbregman Could this be solely about «bad timing» with the Jan 6th speech edits commotion? I mean, do you think the reaction would have been the same 6 months ago, or in N months when the dust has settled around the speech?

I'm so sick of authentication in 2025.

I spend no less than 30 minutes a day authenticating to services. Passkey is awful, yubikey has gotten replaced by it, we havent removed the infinite OTP flows, corporate SAML is a tire fire.

This thing needs completely gutted.

rules, boxes, and the big game

most people think the boxes around them are permanent, but they're just constructs. rules exist everywhere and yes, you need to learn them first — but most are just little games pretending to be the big game.

if you're just starting out, you're going to feel like everyone else knows some secret rulebook you don't have. they don't. they're just playing by someone else's rules and calling it wisdom.

the little games? metrics obsession, design system orthodoxy, bureaucracy trying to feel important. the big game is more about creating meaning, beauty, and helping humans flourish. you get to choose which one you play.

i've watched teams spend weeks chasing a 2% conversion bump while their users are literally screaming that the product sucks. i've seen designers torture themselves making 12px work when 10px feels perfect, all because the style guide said so. i’ve seen endless ideas die just because they don’t match some conventional wisdom.

but here's the thing — the best work comes from trusting yourself. every breakthrough i've seen happened when someone said "this feels wrong" and had the courage to try something different. they know when to bend the rules and jump out of it.

learn the rules first, understand why they exist. then trust your gut and break them when they don't serve you. eventually you'll be making new rules that others follow. it's like learning music or color theory so you can break it beautifully — the rules teach you the language, but your instincts know the poetry.

your uncertainty isn't weakness, it's potential. when you can tell the difference between little games and the big game, you're free to create something that actually matters. don't get stuck in boxes someone else built for their problems.

@X can you please stop sending me notifications about people I don't follow?

@joeytitanium @thekitze If I’m not mistaken, they used to (mistakenly) get applied when clicking things.

@evenstensberg Big IFF, but it’s worth a shot: if you’re using Postgres, I highly recommend @TimescaleDB

Hey @calcom, heads up - your .dev TLD is a couple versions behind (v4.1 -> v4.5) and isn't hiring 🙃

@jamonholmgren Have you played around with @deno_land? My experience with it sounds very similar to yours with Bun, but it also have good support for JSX, giving you prettier and linting support.

Build this AI product and I'll pay for it:

Write articles out of interview and podcast transcriptions.

I love too take notes/quotes from videos using @ReadwiseReader. However, spoken language is messy and difficult to highlight and quote. Processing it with AI should be easy.

@rauchg Tip: I stopped using this in favour of @raycastapp - _much faster_ and the search is a lot better. Just re-bind the keyboard ctrl+cmd+space shortcut, and you're off to the races 🚀

@henrikruscon Hi, I'm experiencing a slight delay with Klack (M1 2020). I guess there are limits for how real time this can be - but I figured you might have some benchmarks/tests on what to expect?

Just want to compare and see if this is a "me" problem or not :)

This goes hand in hand with the recent documentary about @yanisvaroufakis "In The Eye Of The Storm" - recommend both!

Re: algospeak.

If you work in a field that have a pathological struggle with naming things (software), you don't really have to make an effort to mask your search terms. This is one of my more memorable Google searches:

Hi @reflectnotes something I didn't mention in the yearly feedback. I find myself using iA writer just because of the nice writing experience. Some kind of integration here would be 🤯

Or just let me change the font to a nice serif-variant - I think that should take us 80%.

@0xca0a Finally I can spatially arrange photos throughout the year!

We all agree that a year is a circle, right? And that it has new years at the bottom and July at the top and moves against the clock, right?
