Any good matte screen protectors for iPhone? Last one I got shattered quite easily. Like within days.

The bummer about youtube w/ kids is even the educational content plays to the algo and mentions "like and subscribe" and they start repeating it/working it in to their normal language patterns.

I had some gaps in my understanding of SSE even though I've been reaching for it a lot recently. Wanted to close those and thought it might be helpful to share my new understanding.
Misunderstanding SSE
On my path of practicing simple software my existing understanding of systems, protocols and tools are challenged. My mental model for SSE (Server Sent Events) was a way to keep a connection open and send updates to the client from the server. Broadly this is correct, but read on as I break down what SSE actually is to see why you may be underutilizing SSE in your applications.

I'm excited to have stumbled across Datastar: it feels like the missing UI layer I've been looking for.

What I find ick about Sora is it's casually training everyone to let their guard down with ai generated video. This is in addition to already gross uses of it today. This 404 is about how TikTok does this with surveillance bsky.app/profile/jaso....

@leaflet.pub is there anyway to customize slugs? Having the ID is fine, but would like something like example.com/my-post/someid.

Wrote some thoughts about pure UI/ui = fn(state) after spending some time with http://data-star.dev. If you've been feeling modern frontend dev has felt overly complex and the juice isn't worth the squeeze then check this out.
ui = fn(state) done right
If "ui = fn(state)" has ever resonated with you as a frontend developer you owe it to yourself to consider we as an industry have been going about it all wrong for years. Likely your state already lives on the backend and by syncing it to the frontend to render UI we're adding measurable amounts of unnecessary complexity. If you're to radically simplify if you development environments and production deployments then read on…

Thinking a simplified PDS hosting platform could separate compute from storage wrt ownership.

Seems like barrier is setting up and deploying infra.

Most people could probably figure out how to provide their own s3 buckets/credentials.

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador.

Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

I'm excited about atproto, but seeing parallels to long-standing tech like:
lexicons -> json schema
pdf -> hosted website
decentralized data -> html+microformats
firehoses/feeds -> rss

Not trying to draw any conclusions, but just squinting it's like… hey this is all familiar.

@kyle.bricolage.io any thoughts on creating tanstack/db+esql collections dynamically for on-demand syncing? Been reading the lifecycle PRD/implemenation and docs, but not 100% how to best set up a collection for on-demand syncing/subscription that's parameterized.

Agent use cases that have stickiness in my workflow:

- Creating minimal reproductions when encountering bugs with 3rd party libs
- Synthesizing curated articles and producing "best practices" docs in the codebase
- Bake off that iterates through 3-4 approaches to defined problem and goal w/ summary
