Friday music thread!
@jacob My lament is that "ignore previous instructions" has become popularized, and so we're going to have to get cleverer and cleverer with prompts to avoid AI bungling.
_nobody_ wants AI support.
@jgarber why? Because of an extremely anemic standard library
@elight ooh I like that perspective. Agreed!
Experiencing some brown outs, and I let the smoke out of my UPS.
I will miss you, Sergio
@elight the “more hostile for people” is editorial/cynical, but otherwise… yeah
Now we are designing things to be easier for AI, while we continue to make it more hostile for people.
@collin amazing how I knew who it would be
@collin I don’t read his blog posts. I assume this was about dhh again
@Ryanbigg Update dependencies on a regular basis. It’s usually fast and simple if you keep up, but it can be the worst if you let it go for a couple years
@r3trofitted You can still get one in a visible place.
It’s a crime that when you have a great back tattoo, you almost never get to see it.
@gregw I suspect you know all this, and were using exaggerated “just inline styles” to signal distaste. Tell me about your design system! What works well for you?
@gregw A lot of people prefer to take consistent naming across style elements with postfixes like `-sm` or `-xl` over remembering rem or px and having to understand design theory to get it to work together and look good.
But it’s fair, you are learning something, but it’s a lot less than the expanse of knowledge to wield css in the same way.
If you’re good with css and design, go for it. If you aren’t, it’s a big assist.
@gregw “just” is where you’re wrong. It’s a system of inline styles so you don’t have to carry around arcane knowledge like
box-shadow: 0 10px 15px -3px rgb(0 0 0 / 0.1), 0 4px 6px -4px rgb(0 0 0 / 0.1)
Just to get a nice box shadow.
The system aspect is important too, heck here’s the official response https://tailwindcss.com/docs/styling-with-utility-classes#why-not-just-use-inline-styles
@CodingItWrong real question: is it pronounced “ter mer rick” or “tumor rick”?
@sanityinc you’re a good egg
