I just published my 6 part blog series on my adventure into #gatsby and #netlifyCMS. It was super fun to work with these tools and hopefully others can learn from my experience! #LearnInPublic 1️⃣: dev.to/patricksevat/how-to-c… 2️⃣: dev.to/patricksevat/a-beginn… 3️⃣: dev.to/patricksevat/a-beginn…

remember how we used to give story points to ticket? now it's like: "meh, that's like 2 prompts"

LLM assisted coding is really broadening my vocabulary “Envelope” “Unbounded” “Plumbing” “Opaque” “Authoritative” “Bookkeeping” “Ephemeral” “Corroboration” “Affordance” “Drift”

Got a side project, but I suck at UX/design. Finally found a working (AI) flow: - @mobbin for finding designs I like -> store as imgs - LLM to extract vibe from imgs & come up with DESIGN.md - Feed DESIGN.md to @BananiAI for 1-shot design (really)

Liked using @grok as the LLM to iterate on the DESIGN.md cause it accepted a high number of attached imgs

Regarding the AI Design tools: I tried all of them before I had the reference images and tweaked DESIGN.md as well. Most were horrible, Banani was decent. But reference imgs + DESIGN.md + Banani = chef's kiss

Really hope that Anthropic's internal cyber security is top notch now that they've public acknowledged they are sitting on thousands zero days / crit vuln... wouldn't want those to fall in the wrong hands. red.anthropic.com/2026/mytho…

Took rslib for a first spin today, was super easy to set up a dual ESM/CJS output. Will deffo replace some of the other tsc based set ups. I'm calling it today: Always bet on JS, always bet on Rstack tooling

Zipify will spice up your commute!
This is what San Francisco does to you 😂 We designed a hypothetical 10km long 1km high zip line with a 3% incline and 30 mts segments. Don’t tell me it won’t work, we will solve architectural issues after the first funding round 😂

"OpenAI lmnop6.5 ultra watermelon" 😂 "A mess of complex OOPisms, where you have to traverse 18 files just to follow a single behaviour" 🙈 "It’s trained on code that’s already an insult to silicon" 🔫 Funniest blog I've read in a while, can I sub to weekly rants, pretty plz?

Mocking classes in Jest keeps on kicking my ass, no matter how often I do it

Frontend build tooling is fun 😅
My colleague @_Sevat and I joined forces to debug a problem caused by transpilation that took us through - Class inheritance - Prototype Chain - Decorators Syntax - How SWC vs Babel treat decorators - Initialising values outside of constructors What a ride!

eslint-interactive by @mizdra is such a a great tool on large legacy codebases with varying linting configs. Being able to introduce a new rule and apply fixes for only the new rule makes reviewing so much easier

Started with the Webpack to @rspack_dev migration. Not fully complete, but seeing results in line with other large projects. What I love most so far are the advanced profiling tools like these traces. Can you spot why the HMR is slow 😅? GH Gist in thread

The default profiling docs are great, see rspack.dev/contribute/develo… However, my recompilations / watch runs were very slow, so using the tips on the docs, I came up with a specific plugin that profiles the first recompilation only gist.github.com/patricksevat…

Obviously start with Rsdoctor first, had some good insights from that as well. But was hard to split out recompilation from initial compilation
