What a fantastic trailer. Reminds me of All Quiet on the Western Front.

I believe this makes my entire catalog safe for consumption.
I'm a simple man. If a YouTube video cover has a stunned face on it, I don't watch the video.

No True Scotsman. This is a logical fallacy, btw.
If you understand your whole codebase, the codebase isn't that important. Real software is larger than what your brain can comprehend.

Looks like I gotta start working on my GPUI video then
Replying to @huacnlee
Hey Jason, we will start working on infra to automatically publish GPUI releases by the end of the month. For now, GPUI will remain in the Zed repo, but we're aiming for more frequent releases as a goal.

This scene is one of my biggest inspirations for recent YouTube videos. David Fincher is one of the few (if not only) directors to have made a coding scene feel genuinely cinematic and entertaining. piped.video/watch?v=BPazh2kD…

If they ever do, I can finally do my video on it
Hey @zeddotdev team, 315 days since the last GPUI release. 523 commits to crates/gpui. Just take 5 min to publish 0.3.0 today, not tomorrow, not later, please...

FYI - YouTube changed how they tracked views 8 days ago, leading to ~3x higher numbers for many creators. The old metric is now called “engaged views”. That would be the correct number to compare against. support.google.com/youtube/t…
It took the first podcast with Lex over a year to cross a million views. It's taken the second just 5 days. Acceleration is everywhere! Also, we really shouldn't call these "podcasts". At a combined 11 hour 24 minutes, it's more like an audio book! 😂

Dreams of Code retweeted
No this false. We don’t configure using bash. We configure by atomically swapping a symlink or mountpoint. One operation. Implemented in rust these days. You can run a Nixos system without any bash. We even have a profile for that. Bash is only mandatory during build time
all linux distros are just piles of bash scripts except for nixos, which is configured using an advanced lazy functional programming language... ...which evaluates to a pile of bash scripts

The Linux user was right. Dropbox’s moat was incredibly shallow. Every company and their dog was able to build a similar product. (I say this as someone who loved Dropbox whilst at University, literally saved my 25,000 word dissertation when my hard drive crapped out)

Pivotal moment.

It involves migrating nearly everything to Nix, potentially rebasing on top of NixOS Are you ready for it?

If i can criticize, I can also credit. This is a based move. Artists / designers deserve funding, now more than ever.
Introducing Omarchy Artists in Residence (AIR). We will not just fund infrastructure and technology, we will also fund art. The next High demands superior aesthetics. Beauty is truth. Congrats to @hancore_linux and @OldJobobo for the first seats! omarchy.org/news/2026/08/int…

Omarchy's current architecture is poor. I know that offends some people on this platform, (might want to consider why), but it's something I could never recommend with any integrity. Nix would be a dramatic improvement, even to read, and especially compared to some of the bash scripts found in the repo. It would also give the project it's own way to host packages (hello flakes), and would actually be a malleable A.I. first architecture.
Maybe Nix is like Rust: Amazing if you don't have to look at the code! I'm open to the idea that Omarchy Cinque could switch packaging system if I never have to look at nixlang, there are no ergonomic regressions, and we have full repo sovereignty.

Filmed the first scene last night for my next video. Very happy with how this has turned out.
