Awesome, i like it a lot!

Some UX friction i noticed: To get back to the homepage from an article, i have to click on the article headline. While this is elegant and you likely get used to it, once you know it, it's not exactly intuitive.


Awesome, i love listening to Bach while developing.

While you're here, what other classical music can you recommend, especially for listening while working/focusing?

For me, it's currently

- Max Richter, discovered recently and he is fantastic

- The 'New Classical Essentials' playlist in Apple Music

- Brahms, especially String Sextet No. 1 (warning: can make Vulcans cry)


I wish I could listen to classical music while using my brain. I can't. I end up listening to the music.

I've been listening to Scarlatti keyboard sonatas recently. They're great. He was born the same year as Bach.


I love the Schubert song cycles, like Winterreise. There's enough overall stability to get into flow state but variety across each song.

I'm probably a dinosaur but I have yet to find a version better than the very old Fischer-Dieskau/Gerald Moore combo.



Yes chromatic abberation is caused by dispersion.


Damn, outnerded.


I can only recommend vike.dev .


I wish more people knew about and were talking about vike, really powerful tool


That's the most 2025 startup name and idea i've come across so far.


I worry that almost all the 2025 startups I've seen are AI app builders. Where are the novel new applications? I get that codegen is currently one area where AI does well, but it also feels like we're struggling with other use cases.


I’ve spent an enormous amount of time with practically every AI model out there, from coding to image-gen to video-gen

The tech is still simply too hard to use effectively for the vast majority of lay people, especially for anything beyond a cool product demo

Some of it is due to quality of the models, some of it due t quality of the tooling

Prompt engineering is still a skill and that’s beyond what a casual user can figure out


My optimism says the good new stuff is coming slowly because people who care about their craft and taking things slowly aren’t in any rush to get to market.


Cool!

Jos Stem style?


Yes, this appears to use Stam's Stable Fluids algorithm. Look for the phrases "semi-Lagrangian advection" and "pressure correction" to see the important functions. The 3d version seems to use trilinear interpolation, which is pretty diffusive.


Right, all models are inherently wrong. It's up to the user know about its limits / uncertainty.

But i think this 'being wrong' is kind of confusing when talking about LLMs (in contrast to systems/scientific modelling). In what they model (language), the current LLMs are really good and acurate, except for example the occasional chinese character in the middle of a sentence.

But what we mean by LLMs 'being wrong' most of the time is being factually wrong in answering a question, that is expressed as language. That's a layer on top of what the model is designed to model.

EDITS:

So saying 'the model is wrong' when it's factually wrong above the language level isn't fair.

I guess this is essentially the same thought as 'all they do is hallucinate'.


I'll steal that.


This is comparing two orthogonal properties.

SaaS is a business model while malleable vs. rigid is a property of the software itself.


You have forgotten the most important part: Lay off 90% of those devs.
