I can promise you AI is a grift. It's not to say someday we won't figure out how to make artificial intelligence, but LLMs are basically just blockchain 2.0. With blockchain most serious companies saw how useless the technology was and didn't bother. But with AI they couldn't due to uncertainty. 1/2

when transferring HTML you are transferring exactly the data needed to render the UI on demand in a single request
often *more* efficient than constructing the UI via a series of general purpose data retrievals + a client side templating system!

delta between minified & unminifed htmx when brotli'd is 18.71kb (~23ms on emerging 4g) & should it be cached pretty much forever after first request
simplicity, visibility & debuggability benefits of unminified JS becoming increasingly compelling!

First thought after using #htmx: is this it??
Add a reference to the js, slap a couple of tags, and it... just... works?!?

What makes BlueSky awesome is when you can be corrected and learn something new. So I previously used C++ Builder when it was Borland before finally going Visual Studio. Well it has had some upgrades. Woah.

The best HTMX feature: ✨ no new features ✨
Imagine having only bug fixes and security updates, with an API more stable than a growing backwards-compatible one.
Now compare that to maintaining a typical modern JS framework.

Been waiting for weeks to upgrade to the latest #Angular version, but I’m still stuck waiting for ng-mock to catch up since Angular changed its defaults and now it’s taking time. Gotta appreciate the #htmx approach. zenzes.me/htmx-offers-...

A small comparison of Linux boot times with PasRISCV and JIT disabled RVVM (git 56f3510be) to show that my RV64-RISCV CPU emulation in Pascal (compiled with FPC) is faster than the one in C at RVVM (compiled with Clang).

In scientific computing, speed is critical when choosing a programming language. Additionally, given limited resources for funding and the challenges of climate change, memory and energy efficiency are important as well. #Pascal is in the Pareto-optimal set of these goals.

Alright, starting the new year with jumping on the BlueSky train.
Hopefully this will be a place where we can have great and constructive dialogs, instead of succumbing to derogatory and toxic attacks which are running rampant on that other platform...
