Loool. I'm indeed not serious people, the piece is meant to be humorous. I was just experimenting with a gonzo journalism style (hence the title) and drew on my own experiences.

We are building https://fika.bar precisely for that. Niche experts that would love to write, but they don't know how, or don't have time to.

We are building https://fika.bar for that! Niche experts that like to write!

The last two decades of the Internet have been an age of abundance. Creators, advertisers, and consumers benefited from a balance of incentives and a mostly open web. Now, with the rise of consumer AI, that balance is breaking. I explore what comes next in my latest essay.

Good catch!

Checking!

Hey, this is Pao, the guy building https://fika.bar.

Fika is a place to save, discover and share content built upon 3 products:

- A local-first bookmark manager (Works 100% offline) - A feed reader: With feed discovery from your bookmarks. - A blog/newsletter platform

The only thing it currently does not have is e-reader integration yet. But you get the other 2 products bundled together which make a lot of sense.

Hey! I'm the author of the post, it looks like someone has posted this before me :)

finally! I've been following Johannes Schickling project since Riffle!

I've been building a pocket alternative that also bundles an RSS editor (RIP google reader) and a light blogging platform.

The idea is basically to bundle the saving, discovering and sharing content through the same product. I've been using it for a year and it works beautifully.

What do cellular automata, chaos theory, and Mahjong have in common? In this post, I break down how I built Whatajong: a game created in under 200 hours with zero budget—by tapping into the power of emergence. If you're curious how simple rules can create deep, addictive gameplay, read on.

Congratulations for the launch! Looks great!

it would be great to integrate with zod, along the lines of python's instructor

I don't shit on anything, the first part is just a parody.

I did a lot of optimizations with a tiered approach: starting from cheap (and egress-free) and then fallbacking into more expensive ones.

good advice! I will try recording something :)

there are plenty of good alternatives nowadays:

- https://raindrop.io/: Also a one-man show, but probably the best bookmarking tool out there.

- https://omnivore.app: Open source and support for newsletters.

For my use case though (I like to curate and share), I ended up building an app (https://fika.bar) to bundle bookmarking + RSS Reader + Blogging.

This library is a port of the readability.js library that uses cheerio instead of native DOM APIs. The goal for this library was to avoid using JSDOM which is pretty slow and a memory hog.

Awesome!

Awesome! Didn't know about Prosopite.

The point is that "a prop changed" can't be reasoned within a component. If I receive an object as a prop, I can only reason if that pointer in memory will be the same, not wether it has changed. The allocation can happen up in the component hierarchy making this a subtle for even the most senior developers.

yes, it was a wink/homage to historic discussions on anti-patterns :)

Maybe I expressed it incorrectly. When the code is incorrect, it fails in the future. So the user will notice it. This happens when your code relies on some context to work (for instance, if it relies on how the data structure was allocated somewhere up the component hierarchy). When the context changes, then that piece of code starts failing, therefore impacting users.

I agree, but the problem is that when you refer an object inside a hook, the eslint exhaustive deps will tell you to add that object as a dependency. In that example, it's easily solved with destructuring `const teamId = params`, but a lot of developers will blindly follow the eslint complaint.

Looks like someone got "inspired" by http://factorialhr.com ;)

Awesome! HTML5 all the things!

Redbooth is looking for senior Rails developers.

Join one of the best teams in town and have an impact to the thousands of customers that are using our product.

We are looking for people that have production experience with high traffic websites and are able to learn new technologies. Finding solutions out of the comfort zone is part of our daily routine.

The challenges you will face will be to keep the fast-paced development cycle without sacrificing quality, stability nor performance. To achieve that we successfully architected the application moving away from the classic monolithic default Rails approach.

The conditions are exceptional (really good salary and stock!) and we have a strong culture of collaboration and quality work. One example can be our cleaning fridays: developers dedicate time to reduce technical debt, improve tooling and testing coverage.
