I think AI companies want regulation as a get-out-of-jail-free card. If they follow all the rules and still somehow cause massive damage, they can point to the regulations and say: We followed the rules. We did nothing wrong. You can’t hold us liable. #AI #TechPolicy #AIRegulation

Heh. I feel that I keep googling - I mean kagiing - for 'expo 58' to see if it has been released yet, am a bit surprised to see that the top link is to Wikipedia, and it's only after I click on the link that i re-realize that there was a World Fair in Brussels in 1958. #expo

I really wish Bluesky would show the post being replied to above the reply instead of below. I always find myself scrolling up and down to read these. @bsky.app

Is it possible to get 'npx expo install --fix' to work together with npmMinimalAgeGate? We have the cooldown set to two days, so the command fails unless I happens to run it at a specific time in point where the Expo hasn't released any updated in the two two days. 😕 #expo #cooldown #npm

If Apple ships a foldable iPhone this year, I think the real winners will be iPad users. A foldable will encourage renewed focus on big-screen layouts, meaning more apps will get iPad versions since the work of supporting a bigger screen is already done. #Apple #iPad #foldableiPhone

Ads break the alignment between making the best product and maximizing revenue. Kagi shows how clean a paid search engine can be. Their only customer is you, not advertisers. I hope John Ternus dials back Apple's foray into advertising, removing it from the App Store and Maps.

We had to create a control for toggling privacy mode on/off in our app, and I ended with quite a lot of options for it. So I threw together this chart to have something to point at, when talking about the pros and cons of them.

new post on my personal blog. i think these three areas often go unexplained, so hopefully this explains why some of these packages exist. these are fine to exist but the majority of developers shouldn't have to pay the cost for them.

Comparison of the weights of the iPhone models released over the years.

Microservices that can only be released in sync are just a monolith with extra steps. You can quote me on this. 🙂

The EU spends billions on software built behind closed doors. If we want more digital independence, a simple principle helps: public money should mean public code. Sign the open letter 👇 publiccode.eu/en/

Programming languages are either old, outdated, bloated, and bitter about it; or young, unproven, incomplete, and wildly overconfident.

I am generally quite impressed with Copilot. Sure, there is a lot of noise, but I find it pretty easy to filter that out, and once in a while, it is a real hero. One thing though: Is it possible to configure Copilot to stop with these filler comments that don't add anything? #copilot

@kagi.com Is there any chance that you will be adding a personal search history at some point? I often find myself wanting to recall the searches that I have made earlier, and often searches made on other devices.

Yay. My little hobby project of creating a bot for Bluesky finally passed 100 followers. It is posting links to a Danish news site, so the target audience is quite limited. Fun fact: The first version was coded on an iPad with an external keyboard and mouse using GitHub Codespaces.

We're fixing Storybook bloat, one dependency at a time! 🔪 @storybookjs.bsky.social

Playring around with @tanstack.com Router using file-based router, as the docs recommend. I have ended up configuring Ctrl+B to build my project to regenerate routeTree.gen.ts. This feels like going back to a compiled language. Is there something I am doing wrong, @tkdodo.eu?

Is it possible to configure @bsky.app to open external links in the same browser window?
