This is the reason I absolutely hate shadcn. The number of dependencies and files you introduce for trivial components is insane. Even tiny little divs are their own component for no good reason. I genuinely don’t understand how front-end developers accept this level of needless complexity.

Shoutout to Basecoat UI[1], so implementing the same components using Tailwind and minimal JS. That's what I am preferring to use these days.

This reminds me of when Anthropic cut first-party access to Claude models in Windsurf as they were about to be acquired by Google.

> Domain names are tiny little rows in a database. They cost next-to-nothing to set up and maintain. There’s absolutely no reason why they couldn’t be a public good, paid for from the public purse.

I don’t mind paying for the domain name so much but I do mind the fact that even after paying for the domain name, there is no guarantee of having full control over the domain name. I do mind that even after spending money year after year, we are only renting a domain name, with the possibility of the domain name being taken away from us anytime!

I used to be a big proponent of hosting your email address at your own domain name. But then I had a very unpleasant experience of losing my domain name several years ago, for no fault of mine, due to anti-malware operations completely unrelated to my website. After that incident, I am not so sure!

I have written more about that incident here:

I wish the mainstream World Wide Web were built around the concept of owning a domain name where we could prove our ownership using a private key.

How about Ethereum Name Service (ENS)?

I would also recommend Codebuff (https://www.codebuff.com/), a great CLI code assistant comparable to Claude Code, which can save a lot on token costs.

(I am not affiliated with this project, just a user.)

I am using Session Buddy, but this feels more smooth and is opensource. Great works!
