janpio··on Trigger.dev customer environment variables exposed
What would you consider appropriate action for their incident team to be able to mark the incident on their status page as resolved?
janpio··on What it means for an API to be RESTful
Are you sure it is not just a AI authored rehash of the thousands of articles online that make the same points already?
janpio··on Buz – A fork of Bun using modern Zig, with sub-1s incremental builds
Do the caveats mean that it could _not_ actually have had fast builds on all the platforms it supports? (Honestly asking if I connected the dots correctly here, this is not a snarky "actually" rethorical question...)
janpio··on Stripe, Advent offer to buy PayPal for more than $53B
I like your optimism.
janpio··on Chatto is now open source
20 or so years ago him and czottmann wrote a nice little wiki software that I used, WakkaWiki. Following him/them and their work ever since. Crazy.
janpio··on Thoughts and feelings around Claude Design
Isn’t Figma actually the tool used to plan and design the “airplane” level app? (Which of course does not mean it can not be airplane level itself…)
janpio··on FSFE supporters affected: Payment provider Nexi cancelled us
So what did Nexi really want, and how did it get mangled so badly that it came out as "specifically the usernames and passwords of our supporters"?
janpio··on Show HN: Channel Surfer – Watch YouTube like it’s cable TV
I would instantly install and sometimes choose this over the Youtube app.
janpio··on Hardening Firefox with Anthropic's Red Team
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/window-titler... works great.
janpio··on Ruby Newbie is joining the Ruby Users forum
External source with some additional information: https://www.rubynewbie.org/ruby-newbie-is-joining-the-ruby-u...
janpio··on Clawdbot Renames to Moltbot
Motivation for rename: https://x.com/moltbot/status/2016058924403753024 https://xcancel.com/moltbot/status/2016058924403753024
janpio··on Clawdbot - open source personal AI assistant
Clawdbot is the software, they installed their own instance of it and named it "rei". So an instance of Clawdbot named rei helped them to fix a problem in Clawdbot/rei they observed.
janpio··on Turn any Android app into an API
That's quite an interesting approach. Any information on how it works?
janpio··on Context management and project planning tool
App doesn't load for me. One error in console:

> 20:39:02.367 Content-Security-Policy: The page’s settings blocked a script (script-src-elem) at https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js from being executed because it violates the following directive: “script-src 'self' https://js.stripe.com https://www.googletagmanager.com” 2 firebase-vendor-Cs-2scbC.js:1:431979

Not sure if that is the cause of course.

janpio··on Why GitHub Why? [video]

janpio··on Mistral 3 family of models released
Seems fixed now:

https://huggingface.co/collections/mistralai/ministral-3

janpio··on Unifying our mobile and desktop domains
Great job.

I was hoping this was a unification of the both layouts as well, that would have been really impressive. The mobile version of the article pages is great, but getting both versions from the same frontend would be an amazing case study.

janpio··on Show HN: A better way to handoff web bugs to AI agents
Great idea.

Any plans for a Firefox extension?

janpio··on EU set to adopt ChatControl negotiating mandate tomorrow without discussion
What does "adopt #ChatControl negotiating mandate" mean?
janpio··on Why my rust rewrite of Mozilla's readability is better than original readability
So why? The link just goes to the project GitHub repo, and README does not explain as far as I can see.
janpio··on Pebble Watch software is now open source
Also includes news about a new Appstore, which can probably be seen as a reaction to the stories from last week:

    We’ve created our own Pebble Appstore feed (appstore-api.repebble.com) and new Developer Dashboard. Our feed (fyi powered by 100% new software) is configured to back up an archive of all apps and faces to Archive.org (backup will gradually complete over the next week). Today, our feed only has a subset of all Pebble watchfaces and apps (thank you aveao for creating Pebble Archive!). Developers - you can upload your existing or new apps right now! We hope that this sets a standard for openness and we encourage all feeds to publish a freely and publicly available archive.

janpio··on [dead]
Supposedly resolved now: https://status.supabase.com/incidents/h0d0cp971rpy
janpio··on Show HN: Qalam - a CLI that remembers commands
Not accessible for me:

   Web sites prove their identity via certificates. Firefox does not trust this site because it uses a certificate that is not valid for docs.qalam.dev. The certificate is only valid for the following names: *.github.io, *.github.com, *.githubusercontent.com, github.com, github.io, githubusercontent.com, www.github.com
   Error code: SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN
janpio··on Cloudflare outage on November 18, 2025 post mortem
I understood this to be related to this section:

> As well as returning HTTP 5xx errors, we observed significant increases in latency of responses from our CDN during the impact period. This was due to large amounts of CPU being consumed by our debugging and observability systems, which automatically enhance uncaught errors with additional debugging information.

(Just above https://blog.cloudflare.com/18-november-2025-outage/#how-clo...)

janpio··on The productivity impact of coding agents
This other study looked a bit at the impact on the code longer term: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45968758
janpio··on Mechanical Power by Linking Earth's Warmth to Space
The paper: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adw6833
janpio··on I think nobody wants AI in Firefox, Mozilla
Probably that it's a decent first step, with a well defined feature set and user expectations, so a nice thing to try before they figure out what to do next. And the article this comment thread is about is a reaction to one of their announcements in that regard: https://blog.mozilla.org/en/firefox/ai-window/
janpio··on Disrupting the first reported AI-orchestrated cyber espionage campaign
No, they used Claude Code as a tool to automate and speed up their "hacking".
janpio··on AI Agents, Productivity, and Higher-Order Thinking
As it is not directly clear from the title or abstract:

> This paper analyzes adoption, usage, messages, and output related to Cursor Agent — a coding agent that converts natural language instructions into generated code.

janpio··on Implementing Soft Deletion in Prisma with Client Extensions
It took me far to long to understand your pun for (8)... :)

Out of curiosity: How does this deal with referential actions? (See https://www.prisma.io/docs/orm/prisma-schema/data-model/rela...)
