Scott Tolinski - Syntax.fm

Dead code, duplication and drift are huge problems with coding with AI. You can't prompt this away. Lately I've been really loving Fallow to reign this in. youtube.com/watch?v=XLtuSy…

@heystevebauman The corners are indicative of a much larger lack of care and attention to detail that permeates every aspect of macOS.

macOS complaints: my borders aren’t perfectly rounded Windows complaints: can we please have a working operating system

Holy shit

One of my favorite parts of this challenge was that all of our testers were pretty kind in their scoring, rarely even giving 3/5 stars. Then there is my wife, Dr Tolinski, dropping 2 stars, 1 star ratings.

Date pickers suck, so the Syntax crew challenged each other to see who could build the best one. Me, Wes or CJ. Then we did real user testing. The results were incredible youtube.com/watch?v=4JUx-8…

This is your reminder that if you are building on @cloudflare workers and you want to keep any local secrets out of plaintext and/or load them from an external source (like @1Password), varlock.dev is the way 🧙‍♂️✨

A peek inside Coinbase’s AI software dev workflow. We recorded this in October when 50% was unfathomable. Seems low now. One of our most downvoted eps, one of my favourite eps. youtube.com/watch?v=x7bsNm…

@mikeclarke @zeeg So much of stuff like this.

@stolinski @zeeg “Do you have anything more to say? Because if not I’m going to call someone else.”

of all the fucked up capitalistic, predatory shit we target kids with the tincan is very cool and doesnt feel like that at all. good job whoever created that thing

@swalker326 @OmarchyLinux @FrameworkPuter my only non-mac laptop was an older system 73 lemur that has a terrible trackpad and really showed its age. Def not long term usable.

@stolinski @OmarchyLinux @FrameworkPuter What hardware didn't work well? I'm a basic bitch. Bluetooth keyboard and and trackpad plus 1 external monitor. I put omarchy on an older asus laptop and it was shocking fast for the hardware, but still slow. I'd love to try it out with a dual boot on my personal mbp

@stolinski How did this age? Is @OmarchyLinux you daily driver? I'm thinking about going to a @FrameworkPuter and going in head first youtube.com/shorts/8YULk16…

@trashh_dev I am very mad at you for posting this.

openai pr dept: “we’re getting crushed on likeness” sam:

@dillon_mulroy I see this all the time

the most annoying behavior of 5.5 is that it regularly starts editing files with python instead of its edit tool

This explains so much

My team at @sentry is hiring! This is one of the best groups of JS hackers I've ever had the pleasure to work with. We're solving hard and interesting problems for real users. If you're in Toronto, check it out! (RT for reach, plz ;) sentry.io/careers/bbd40e…

@DavidWells Not about those things specifically. Mostly about the never ending burning of goodwill

They just don't really need or care about supporting the other harnesses The growth rate they have is insannnnnne even with the, loud but tiny minority, outrage around the opencode/openclaw stuff Fastest growing company in history of the planet and they dont seem to care, right now, about any of the naysayers. It could be bad for them in long term but I see no evidence of the train slowing down. Network effects supplant interoperability everytime Every platform locks down its gold. Remember when twitter had like 20+ rad third party clients? All dead now.

Wild that this trajectory has just continued.

@ryanvogel Same. I'd love a free laptop

nobody wants to give me a free laptop and it hurts

@samlambert @kdaigle +1

If the community wants to save contemporary GitHub we should rally around @kdaigle becoming independent CEO. He has been there since the old days. Knows the soul of the product and knows how to do it.
