If I can't read it now, it doesn't mean that I won't find a more relaxed spot in life where I can read it. 😀

"I’ll read it later" (ie bookmarks) is one of the biggest lies we tell ourselves on the Internet.
If you don’t want to read it now, you won’t want later either.
Delicious closed a long time ago. Netflix knows our Watch later lists are a joke. Now, Pocket is out.

The outcome is beautiful, but only the animation made me understand the data.
I also think data-art is totally legit 😉

You are right here for MTB and gravel. I can't see this tech persist for the road. Too messy.

Not missing them. Clincher are just fine.
And tubeless will disappear even faster for everybody that doesn't have a mechanic.

In Germany it probably depends to who you talk.
General public would use KI. In tech most would use AI, pretty much alike any other tech buzzword. And then again, a few would probably more precisely talk about LLMs...

That's a bummer! Hopefully you will learn more this way.

+ add all the options you have today using AI agents (while only Claude 4 knows the new syntax) and you shouldn't have any issues to tackle your projects.
You may not like that idea of using AI to code, but I think it is the future and will help us to get things just done.
My 5 cents. 😀

I started with Svelte 5 and found it a real joy and relatively easy to pick up. Ok, I have some Vue.js experience (and found the transition to 3 a bit nightmarish), but still, Svelte is cleaner IMO.
Currently I just write components - no SvelteKit required at all.

"rapidly aging population" is a funny expression, a bit like, "time flies". In some countries faster than in others. 😅

Tough question! 😀
It's made for marketing folks and gets now slowly adapted to more enterprise/BI usage.
I like that it is very simple to start with (kind of like low-code environments), but then you hit a lot of walls, which leads to quirky solutions. It has a niche, but needs better visuals.

👍🏼 I ever you want more input, feel free to ping me. I did a lot of experiments from Looker Studio (lots of frustration) over Observable Framework (great, but limited) to Svelte (awesome, but high complexity). And I am only concerned about the representation layer... There is lots of stuff to cover.

You should definitely wrap up this very post. When using Power BI (or any other tool) and when creating a custom solution.
There are so many use cases, so many different skills required, so many layers (visual, data, cleaning, team, security, etc.) and each layer has an impact on the choice.

There is also the kind of people that need to write, but not using their first language.
I think there is a difference if you use AI to write the content or to use AI to shape your own content.

Haven't used it yet, but Sveltia is high on my list for the next time I need one:
jamstack.org/headless-cms...
Other than that, I have used Contentful, which is good, but it becomes complex rather quickly.
