Battling devs bad takes daily, some of them are our own. But we've converged on HTMX as the best solution, maybe with Astro 🤷

Dead wrong, in 2nd quarter of 2025 I’ll be releasing the Hammer-Saw to the world.
For a minuscule drop in safety you’ll have the all in one tool you deserve. This time we got it right!
Increasingly tired of the “if a tool requires additional tools it is bad” thing
Small, focused, composable tools are a good thing. A hammer with a built in saw would be a shitty hammer

Oh my god he sells a template repo??? I take it back. He's not farming for Twitter clout, he's literally trying to scam new devs into paying him and he's mad we're solving their issues for real

Weaponization of Community notes is now a thing. Enjoy
Making a slight change to creator monetization:
Any posts that are corrected by

The idea is to maximize the incentive for accuracy over sensationalism.

But does it have to stay there all locked up and lonely?
There has to be a middle ground.
Perhaps it starts there, but could visit the client, evolve and grow and then come back to the server happy and fulfilled.
Rinse and repeat.
I think about this a lot.

Like a mere mortal programmer could have come up with and implemented the great Ruby on Rails? Preposterous!
Dividing programmers into application makers and framework/library builders is bullshit. Every application programmer ought to aspire to contribute to their tool chain. The more tool code looks like app code, the easier that becomes.
