What's everyone's thoughts on the new VSCode copilot agent versus Cursor?
I think that the performance of Cursor is snappier but the papercuts due to it being a fork make me lone for VSCode.
Also, can anyone provide a primer on incorporating MCPs into the mix?

How is it that in 2025 SquareSpace does not have a way to transfer blog posts between sites? They can suck them out of Wordpress, export them out, but there's not transfer to a newly designed site?
Seems like table stakes to me...

Everytime I hear "oh baby" by LCD Soundsystem I can't help but think of the fantastic music video and wish it was turned into a feature length film.

My father would womanize, he would start land wars with Denmark. He would make outrageous claims like claiming ownership of Greenland. Sometimes he would refer to the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America.

bluesky request.
do not follow or reward quote-doomers. people who quote an article and only add something like "you have no idea how bad this is" or "it's over" or "say goodbye to everything you love".
they succeed from your stress. they're bringing you down with them. stay awake; not like this.

so far the only explanation i've seen that doesn't smack of "if only she'd listen to me she would have won" is "global discontent with incumbents because of inflation and post-pandemic malaise + toxic information environments"

I love this. So true.
I didn’t realize, as a child, just how often and to what degree, the attribute of courage would be required to live in the world as an adult.

Anyone have a recommendation on an iPad friendly Bluesky app? The official app appears to be iPhone only.

I'm now about three weeks into migrating one of my apps from Heroku to Hetzner (via Kamal) and I've noticed effectively a 100% drop in request timeout errors.
I still employ the rack-timeout gem and keep the same limits, but it just doesn't happen anymore.
Anyone else seeing anything like this?

@joshuawood.net I just finished migrating one of my apps from Heroku to Kamal, and @honeybadger.io Insights played a pretty substantial role in helping me get a handle on my server health/performance. So thanks for that!
