Things I miss in Nix that we have in Bazel: queryable target graphs

Things I miss in Bazel that we have in nix: overlays and overrides

But they’re directly at odds of each other. One is a result of early binding and the other of late binding.

How do we get both?

Looking at your phone is hundred times worse for ergonomics than looking at my computer at my desk. We need linear diffs for Rayban glasses or some shit instead

Engineers are breaking free of the shackles to the desk

Get coffee, the work continues in the background. Ping from Linear after its written your PR. Looks good? Ship it

Mobile diffs is a step on the path to freedom. We break the chains on Dec 9th

I don’t allow AI to write comments. It’s so bad.

Your agent writes useless expiring code comments about the edit it just made, like "# Used to be x; now y"

@astral_sh bans these in uv's AGENTS.md:

"DO NOT leak our conversation, prompt, or iteration history into code comments, pull request descriptions, or other maintainer-facing prose."

To enforce it you can use a Claude Code PreToolUse hook to block the edit (script in the image, paste it to your agent)

Or maybe even consider blocking new comments entirely
