Justin Timberlake in the Social Network:

Drop the interim, just CEO

It’s cleaner

Found in Competitive Sensemaking popfeed.social/book/9789153...

“The 2014 article The Millennial’s Guide to Philosophy: Postmodernism in Primer Magazine puts it as:

Postmodernism, you have to remember, didn’t grow out of a need to make sense of the world but out of a failure of the world to make it sense. That might sound infuriatingly vague, and again, you wouldn’t be wrong.”

Finally set up my @blento.app while wearing my @germnetwork.com cap. At some point all I’m wearing will be atproto and the set bonus will be so sick people will call it the final network effect

just realized @trueadm.dev is on bsky as well, would also be great to read more from him about that whole subject :)

Dominic Gannaway: You want to avoid that pattern where possible. That's how DraftJS worked, but it is actually really inefficient.

Instead, you want to serialize your state to JSON, only when you need to be extracted out. You definitely don't want to be forcing the editor state to be a new version on each update, as you'll be killing performance. You can think of editor.setEditorState like a load game sort of case – you don't want to be loading game each time you move your character. Lexical's EditorState wasn't designed to be controlled by React, it was designed to be controlled by Lexical. Trust Lexical to handle it properly.

I look back fondly on having built the first skylight(s) on atproto and the first letterboxd/goodreads. But tbh others have done more with those concepts, and I'm starting my new job with voize.de on Monday so I'm happy to freeze skylights.my and become a popfeeder myself

There is a Pokémon Go quality to traveling now where leaving the EU might give you fun stuff like iPhone Mirroring but then it can also expose you to less fun bits like this one

A captcha asking me to select all the objects or animals that can be found inside a house. It's a grid of 9 images, 3 of coffee, 3 of dolphins or wales, some of them in space

Pretty wild that this is a thing one of the top AIgent does when you don't give it some ground rules and just ask it to fix an issue

The most brutally defensive try-catch code you have ever seen

I would never

...c,
value: e.target.value as never,
} as never) as never,

Forgot to mention that it can detect more than one, which is very useful when looking at a list of recommended books

On MacOS the shortcut lets you select a screen region directly, which is great for busy screens filled with many titles

This is what profiles look like now. Should probably have posters layout as an option there too? Maybe even sth you can set as the default for how your profile lays out for others?
