Cool to see this @grain.social. This year I migrated off of Instagram to my personal website kuhrt.me/capturing. But I do enjoy a healthy social experience. Maybe that's what Grain is/will be/remain as :). I am sceptical that pretty much any social platform of sufficient "success" (scale) will ...

I would appreciate a TypeScript LSP MCP, Claude Code could turn a laborious non-deterministic process (easily 1+ minutes on large code bases) of identifier renames into a few seconds deterministic process. For now I try to do that for Claude but steals some degree of flow from me.

TIL! How subtle is that, damn. Seems like a good candidate for a lint rule.
learned something new in #TypeScript today. an arrow function is only analyzed as a never-returning call if it has an explicit annotation on the variable name (distinct from a return type on the arrow function)

I've been making big strides with Graffle the past couple weeks, such as around the static builder and support for variables, docs, and type level string parser. Accordingly I revamped docs to cover everything one should need to know about these features. Here's a rundown:

So last month I gave two talks at GraphQL Conf in Amsterdam and it was a lot of fun and challenge for me but unfortunately a glitch means my talk on Polen (polen.js.org) will never see the light of day, though my shorter talk on Graffle (graffle.js.org) will.

I've seen lots of agentic workflow tools popping up this year. I started my own called flo github.com/jasonkuhrt/flo :) -- Starting simple but will iterate over time. So far combines use of Claude Code, GitHub issues, Git worktrees, and some naming conventions.

I am excited for voidzero.dev/posts/announ... and will begin using it this week on some of my projects (more on that soon). Thanks @vite.dev @vitest.dev etc. and all the peeps involved reaching this point. Every tool in the chain scratches an itch I have.

Today I shipped a static document builder for Graffle, learn more here graffle.js.org/guides/gener... (PR github.com/graffle-js/g...). It unlocks new usage patterns like defining queries outside of a Graffle instance, at module level, totally static, reusable, passable to instance.

Today is my last day at @the-guild.dev! I still intend to continue my work on projects like polen.js.org, and graffle.js.org. I've been head down for a few months culminating to my talks at @graphql.org Amsterdam conference two weeks ago. Feel a bit burnt out but also excited for new adventures.

I want to make a @zed.dev extension that leverages @typescriptlang.org semantic analysis allow syntax theme authors (including would be me :)) to apply rules 🧑🎨 also on arbitrary static analysis ala. what @typescript-eslint.io is doing for listing. Leverage TS Go to make it perform.

@ieni.dev! Please bring Glimpse ( marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemNa...) to @zed.dev! ❤️ This time you'd get to write it in 🦀😄. I think it would integrate really nicely with Vim concept of key chords since they do exactly that: <...key> -> do something 🚀.

This is going to be great, we can finally steer people away from using POST by "default" (PO's require effort et all) on GraphQL because QUERY is an ideal replacement 😍
It's been a long time coming but the http QUERY method spec is nearly done www.ietf.org/archive/id/d...
The HTTP QUERY Method
This specification defines a new HTTP method, QUERY, as a safe, idempotent
request method that can carry request content.

I'm so happy @zed.dev exists. Finally made the switch yesterday. Never going back to VSCode. Thanks for the great last ~7 years. But it became too buggy and slow for me on an hourly basis. 🤷 (being a vim user definitely made me hit more rough edges than otherwise would have).

Went down a rabbit hole on TS "... cannot be named ..." error. There appears to be a bug in TS with ESM re-exports and namespaces, but I'm not sure! Tricky whatever it is.
