@DaveSabine @CFDevelop You can use a file watcher like `fswatch` that refreshes your active browser tab when a monitored file is saved.

@CFDevelop How do you achieve hot-reloading?

This is weird but I'm starting to like making web stuff with just HTML/CSS and vanilla JavaScript No packages No webpack No typescript

@apeatling Ahh, nice. I'm due for a new laptop (still on Intel), and the Mistral stuff caught my eye recently. Have fun!

@kwight This was running on an M1 Max. On a base M1 there is around a ~5 second delay for responses (depending on the complexity). Newer chips should be very fast.

An offline voice assistant using Mistral 7b LLM and Whisper speech recognition models, all using the Ollama API. I’ve built on the great work of maudioin, implemented support for Apple silicon Macs, and added few improvements. More to come. github.com/apeatling/olla…

I remember seeing a senior dev fix a bug with a single line of PHP using a language feature I didn't know existed. Will never forget it.

Greenpeace made a statue trying to protest Bitcoin’s environmental impact but tbh this is the greatest ad for it I’ve seen in a while

Stop saying: AI will replace humans. Start saying: humans who know how to use AI at work will replace those who don’t.

@RAC aging myself, but they kinda remind me of Boston album covers

@CFDevelop @tottinge There was always a little overlap, but mostly any needed communications were through PR comments or Slack DMs.

@kwight @tottinge How did you work when there was no time overlap?

So, you’re all working on the same feature? I have questions: 1) Why is there a feature branch per person, rather than a feature branch you share? 2) Why aren’t you working together, simultaneously? 3) Why branching? 4) Why do you code all of it before releasing?

@CFDevelop @tottinge I've been on a team that works like this, but it helped that we were in different time zones – it was almost like handing off PRs back and forth according to the work day. (And really only two or max three devs on the same PR/branch at the same time.)

@tottinge I know that you're trying to make people think about why they do things, because I do the same, but this doesn't add up for me You're telling me there are teams that work in the same branch mob programming mode and people actually like working like this?

Had brunch with my grandma who said “you can’t retire unless you have 100,000 in your bank account” and then was shocked to learn I don’t have a pension
