If local-first aims to reconstruct software without needing the cloud by inverting ideas data ownership, credible exit, reliance of authoritative servers, software longevity, etc. than the co-option that I think is happening is energy of local-first will be funneled towards sync engines...

I've been to a few Bartosz talks already so this feels immediately familiar :)

Update: heard back from the podcast host. They don't do redirects, and were generally super unhelpful. So I've reverted to the old show URL for now, but will be moving away from this podcast host (and just self-hosting) very soon. Sorry for all the chaos! And thanks again for the heads-up.

(What's weird to me is that I could have sworn I tested that this was being redirected. I spent hours setting up and testing various redirects to avoid just this sort of failure mode. So either I missed it, or it was working but only temporarily. Maybe some sort of caching. Sigh.)

Oh damn! Thank you for letting me know. It seems like the platform I use to host the podcast didn't set up a redirect for (at least some of) our podcast RSS feed(s) they host. I've sent in a request to their customer support.

Scroll-driven animations. There's even a new-ish css api for it.
I too look disdainfully on such effortless attempts to hack my pleasure centers.

I like not correcting typos when I YT search. Lots of weird (good) pockets of (often non-English) humanity!

There is absolutely a different blend of tricks I could use, and ranges would be great for some parts, but at a certain point I just had to get it working and ship! So the compromise: monospace, no wrapping, and it's okay if stuff doesn't line up perfectly — especially emoji 😉

The reason I didn't take this approach is that any time the number of tasks changes, I need to recompute all the positions particles will have *when they arrive*, which is in the future, which requires doing a lot of speculative positioning. Doing that inside the DOM was like 100x slower.
