Reply guy The latest scourge of Twitter is AI bots that reply to your tweets with generic, banal commentary slop, often accompanied by a question to "drive engagement" and waste as much … Simon Willison’s Weblog · simonwillison.net I had no idea there were such things as “reply guy” as a service. I can see this as a really genuine thing where brands want to genuinely engage with their communities, quickly being taken over by slop bros to ruin everything.

Smaller and dumber If I can make it smaller, I should. daverupert.com · daverupert.com Important things to remember in the age of cheap code. More code, not always more better. More code mean, more risk, more maintenance, harder to change.
THIS, THIS is how most people are feeling about AI right now. Theres lots of “oh ai bad”, “but ai help”, “but ai company sleezy”. Cassidy did a fantastic job summarizing how most of us are feeling. Ending with well at the end of the day, I can’t do anything about the bad, the best thing I can do is learn how to embrace the good cause it aint going away any time soon.

trash (@trashh_dev) on X loving the state of development right now X (formerly Twitter) · x.com There are so many config files right now, glad to see some standards coming in around Agents.md, but so much is still specialized to a whole host of tools that have not been standardized on yet.
Silksong: Demastered by Nekodot Hollow Knight: Silksong in the classic NES-style! itch.io · nekodot.itch.io This is an abolute banger of a game on itch. It nails the nes aesthetic while keeping true to the modern silksong movements. You can play through the first boss Moss Mother, and where you start the first ascend into Bone Bottom. I was in shock when I discovered the little climb effect hornet does when you just cant quite make a jump, the hold jump for height is on point. Her downstrike with the hunters crest is perfect.
Blueskii (@LayoutPerson) on X this underground creator named "sN0UK" made Queens Garden from Hollow Knight In GD! 🗡️🕸️ X (formerly Twitter) · x.com Wyatt would absolutely love this banger of a level.
DHH (@dhh) on X I've really come to love Tmux's programmability. Next Omarchy will have a "nic" function that starts current directory with this 3-way split: Neovim, Opencode, Terminal.

uvx.sh | Astral Install Python tools with a single command. Powered by uv. uvx.sh astral silently dropped a clever uvx.sh to help builders reach a wider audience, no longer does a user need to have python installed prior to installing a python cli. It does have a hard requirement on having curl or wget available.

External Link youtube.com We are living through the js framework wars for agents and llms now. We will look back on this with clarity, and wonder why we wasted time with things like graphql, and why we couldn’t see the real winners from the start.
Such a good interview @lexfridman is such a talented interview. It’s so cool to see the other side of this. For weeks we’ve heard about the story of the name change, we’ve seen everyone shitting on the security model, buying up all the mac minis in existance, fear mongering not to install this thing. @steipete has such a cool story from the beginning talking about making this thing fun and exciting. Giving it a personality that is not “You are absolutely right”. The story of changing the name twice, and getting pwnd on every step the first time and nailing it the second time is incredible. Dude is having fun trying to make the thing he wants in the world exist.
I keep forgetting about the double gutter problem with nested containers. When you put padding on a parent and the child also has padding, you get twice the spacing you wanted.
The Problem #
.container {
padding: 2rem;
}
.child {
padding: 2rem;
}
Now your content is 4rem from the edge. Not what I meant at all.
The Fix #
Either remove padding from the parent or use box-sizing: border-box and plan
for it. I usually just drop the parent padding when I realize what I have done.
