I think it's strange too. Why is Lord of the Rings such a famous book series? Surely not because Tolkien could write faster than others.

Do you have evidence?


I'm not an AI fanatic, but I do use ChatGPT often. In my experience, ChatGPT now is only marginally better than it was in 2022. The only real improvements is due to "thinking" abilities, i.e. searching the web and spending more tokens (basically prompting itself). The underlying model still to me feels largely the same.

I feel like I'm living in a different world when every time a new model comes out, everyone is in awe, and it scores exceptionally well on some benchmark that no one heard of before before the model even launched. And then when I use it, it feels like it's exactly the same as all models before, and makes the same stupid mistakes as always.


You don't need a build step anymore with TypeScript since Node 24.

I'm referring to client-side javascript.

The original article was written by an employee of an AI company, demonstrating that a CMS is not really needed when you can use AI. Both are probably biased, but nonetheless both articles are worth a read. Re-evaluating established patterns in the age of AI is an interesting thought exploration, from both sides.

Exactly for this reason I bought a NAS where I can backup all my photos that are normally saved directly into iCloud.

I don't take notes on my phone. Sometimes I send a message to myself on Telegram so I can continue with the thought on my laptop.

Windows Notepad is seriously underrated.

It also doesn't nag you with administrative tasks to "save" notes when you close Notepad. You close the editor, Notepad is gone. You open Notepad, the notes are there again. And since recently it has tabs too. What a time to be alive.

There's nothing on macOS or Linux that comes close.


It doesn't have to be thrown out. It can be re-used by someone else. Just build durable electronics. It will last a decade easily. Upgradeable laptops are actually less sustainable: people buy not 1 or 2 laptops, but 1.6 laptops: effectively throwing away 0.6 laptop.

Also I see no reason why a non-upgradeable laptop would also be non-repairable.


For every Microsoft service there are 5 tiers of certifications that are needlessly updated every few years.
