@xisawfulnow @GalacticRebirth @hasanthehun @JonahDispatch Let’s not talk about George Washington’s dental plan

Love the idea that normie Democrats have to make peace with this poltroon because he represents some kind of winning message.

Hasan Piker: “America is, in its foundation, a white supremacist country. This is very frustrating for Republicans to hear, this is even frustrating for liberals to hear sometimes, but it’s just the truth”

@TukiFromKL Did you read the docs before posting this? It respects robots.txt and doesn't bypass captchas and bot protection

🚨 Stop scrolling. This is the biggest betrayal in tech this year.
The company that built its entire reputation on BLOCKING scrapers just shipped the most powerful scraping tool ever made.
> Cloudflare just dropped a /crawl endpoint. One API call and you get an entire website back. Clean HTML, Markdown, or JSON. That's it. That's the whole thing.
Let me break it down. For years, Cloudflare sold anti-bot protection. Companies paid them to STOP crawlers. Now those same companies are watching Cloudflare hand everyone a free crawler that bypasses… other people's anti-bot protection.
They didn't switch sides. They're playing both sides. And getting paid twice.
Cloudflare Developers@CloudflareDev
Introducing the new /crawl endpoint - one API call and an entire site crawled. No scripts. No browser management. Just the content in HTML, Markdown, or JSON.

@solomonraymusic @kritikatwtss It’s possible to be self-made and not succumb to the petite bourgeoisie mindset

PLEASE don’t do this especially when your API is supposed to be RESTful.
In REST, the HTTP status is what determines if there’s an error.
2xx - Good
4xx - User fault
5xx - Our fault.
I’ve seen you’ve mentioned @supabase does this. Last I checked Supabase is a BaaS not a standards committee.
If your API uses REST and you want a structured response that can transfer across teams, use JSON:API jsonapi.org
Kartik@kartik_builds
Update your API response format now 🙏🙏

@Ihadtosayitpod @EddoLikesRope @justaguymsc @CarlosGSmith do you live in Orlando?
If not, why do you care?
English

@EddoLikesRope @justaguymsc @CarlosGSmith The only reference to it being a memorial is a hashtag that a huge number of people won't even recognize. That's what pissed me off. I had just gotten up and probably could have expressed it better, but politicians using tragedies to push agendas pisses me off.

@RayFroZn @unusual_whales I struggle to outweigh the steel-man of innovation incentive against the gini coefficient we’re currently experiencing in every major city.
English

@RayFroZn @unusual_whales There’s an exponential relationship between time & wealth accumulation at that level. You could make an argument there’s value for society to have capital allocators, but our country was most prosperous when we had the highest marginal tax rate.
English

@abrar_gist @theo Also, lazy MCP tool design generally flood the context and make agents worse. If the tools match 1:1 with endpoints, you’ve done something wrong.
English

@abrar_gist @theo When you’re able to use natural language to prompt & parse data, and then chain tools, it starts to make more sense. They enable a bunch of low-complexity tasks to be automated without strict input data contracts. Everything can be fuzzy except output.
English

This is the tweet that convinced me. MCP is just web3 all over again

once you understand MCP, you never see the internet the same way

@ZohranKMamdani @TishJames You dont want billionaires in America, but yet you take campaign donations from them. Hypocrite


English


@realMikeBlue @RossBarkan he just participated in a primary — and is running in the general where people will vote between him & other candidates
definitionally, that’s democracy.
English

@RossBarkan Yeah but he doesn’t get along with American Democracy.
English

When he ran my campaign Zohran was surrounded by Jews. Me, our deputy campaign manager, my mom, my dad, plenty of vols. People are free to knock Zohran on his policies but he has gotten along very well with Jews his whole life
Zaid Jilani@ZaidJilani
What specifically has he said about the Jewish people?
English

@crutchcorn @tarekkh1997 unfortunately I think that’s also just what happens when you hit peak market saturation — you get every use case possible to solve, and that’s hell to architect around.
the most commonly used libs have the most use cases they serve, and you’re most likely to encounter em.
English

@tarekkh1997 Hotter take: People really overcomplicate every aspect of development.
English

@nstfkc @mfpears @catalinmpit understanding LLM tokenization & context helps significantly with task chunking / sequencing
knowing how to articulate a task for an agent using keywords yields much better results for agentic programming (but applying specificity incorrectly is a footgun)
