Hasty
Scott, Wes, and CJ recap Sentry's Hack Week, where they built a Sega Genesis game in C, a web-controlled LED grid, and a competitive UI coding platform. Hear what worked, what broke, and how AI helped (or didn't).
Tasty
Wes and Scott break down why vibe-coded apps are about to spawn a wave of security disasters, from client-side auth checks to the Tea app's wide-open Firebase bucket. Plus practical tips for access control, and sick picks of hotel scents and a book about colonizing Mars.
Hasty
Scott, a recovering non-planner, and Wes break down how to start a new project without regrets, from pseudocode outlines and data structures to picking the right tech and wrangling AI steering docs. Also, a surprising amount of talk about charging cables and grocery shopping.
Tasty
Potluck time! Wes and Scott tackle editor shortcut chaos, whether WASM kills Docker, how to ask for that senior title, and if LLMs have turned the web into one giant React blob.
Hasty
Potluck time! Wes and Scott tackle Cloudflare's AI crawler blocking, supporting local-first apps, whether a vibe-coded product belongs in your portfolio, and how to keep kids' screen time from turning into brain rot.
Tasty
Scott and Wes dig through the State of Devs 2025 survey covering salaries, layoffs, remote work, phones, health, hobbies, and the questionable music taste of web developers. Plus Scott's concussion recovery update and a surprising amount of Jira suffering.
Hasty
Wes and Scott catch up on summer's web dev news: Amazon's Kiro editor, Node running TypeScript, Rolldown-Vite's 100x builds, async Svelte with remote functions, and Perplexity's Comet browser that actually does stuff for you. Plus a tsunami scare in Maui and a file server that runs on literally everything.
Tasty
CJ breaks down how RSS actually works and how he built a self-hosted feed setup with MiniFlux, Capy Reader, ReadKit and Wallabag so he can escape ads, comment sections and Reddit rage. Plus, where to find feeds for news sites, Hacker News, subreddits and even your Bluesky follows.
Hasty
Scott and CJ trade their favorite productivity apps, from voice dictation and Amazon's spec-driven Kiro IDE to terminals, notes, to-dos, email, and a very fancy dumb phone. Spoiler: one of them keeps everything in unsaved Sublime Text tabs and the other gets swooned by rounded corners.
Tasty
Scott and Wes tour the wild landscape of local-first sync engines, from Zero and LiveStore to InstantDB, Convex, Electric SQL and more. Find out which one fits your stack, and why your app might soon feel instant.
