@robpalmer.bsky.social I haven’t heard folks talking about the pipeline operator in a while. Is that something folks on the TC39 still have appetite to pursue or is the prevailing sentiment against adding new syntax?

It's a little rough around the edges, but I got the first version of the python client of my webview project shipped tonight: pypi.org/project/just.... The docs on pypi are a little wrong (type imports), but the repo's docs are correct. github.com/zephraph/web.... It's been a long road!

I asked Deep Research how Algebraic Effect handler lookups work in Koka, Eff, OCaml, and Unison. I paid for it so you don't have to. ... If all you ask are questions about programming. Here's Koka. The only one that uses evidence passing. All others look up the stack.

Hey friends and followers: If any of you are fairly comfortable with python, I'd love a PR review on this python client I'm working on for my webview library: github.com/zephraph/web.... Specifically look at src/clients/python/examples and tell me how those feel. Is it pythonic?

What if a spreadsheet cell could hold multiple values at the same time? That's the idea behind Ambsheets, a project I've been working on w/ @geoffreylitt.com at @inkandswitch.com. It's a new spreadsheet that makes it easier for you to explore many possibilities simultaneously. 1/2

The political climate right now reminds me of the environment right before the pandemic. We knew it was coming; we just didn't know how fast. One day we were working and the next everything ground to a halt. I can't help but fear this next bit will be much, much worse.

I've been inching ever closer to multi-client support in my webview library. Last night I landed a PR that I'm incredibly excited about: incremental json input parsing. github.com/zephraph/web.... I'm using the excellent actjson crate.

is there some treesitter or code analysis tool that gives me a graph of my react codebase with which components render which other components? i'm thinking like - finding component fns, looking at their jsx elements ast nodes, connecting it all in a graph. maybe this exists?

Giving an LLM a code sandbox massively increases its capabilities, but managing VM lifecycles is a pain. Introducing foreverVM, a Python REPL-as-a-service. Under the hood, we swap between memory and durable storage. To you (and your agent) it acts like an always-on REPL. See more at forevervm.com

Good morning, I published a new blog post: www.mattkeeter.com/blog/2025-01... It's ostensibly about continuous integration, fuzzing, and panic safety (but secretly, it's about the desire to do good engineering)

We've added some super detailed ways to order content in your feeds, but it may a bit complicated to "sort" it out (get it!?) - @hipstersmoothie.com sat down and wrote up a bit of color about how you can use our custom sort operators to create almost any type of feed ordering!

A little tip for anyone using mise (if you're not, you should be!) Add this to your config: [env] _.path = ["node_modules/.bin"] Puts binaries installed via node on your path (when mise is active).
