Finally got around to re-building my BauerLite 0 with Dynacap EC switches. Unlike traditional mechanical switches EC switches activate by detecting changes in electrical charge, or capacitance, without physical metal contact points. A true 'oneness with cup rubreh' is the result.

People love to hate on generative AI, especially when it shows up where it wasn't before. Something like 60% of global venture capital is invested in AI—yes, AI Enshitification is real. So there's a lot of smoke there, but there's some fire. People who use text editors for writing code are right in the middle of that fire. This is fine.

Infinite scrolling is a dark pattern, and traditional pagination controls are anachronistic on a modern web page. There is a better way. An infinite scroll (with user controlls) and a sensible NoJS fallback. The venerable Turbo library makes this kind of thing super easy to implement in any framework. It has been my go-to pattern for pagination for a while now.
