ADHD brains tend to be motivated by understanding the problem, rather than accomplishing the task. This can look similar to Brain Crack.

I like the idea.

I'm not sure of the usefulness at the moment. Decorating every component with `useFillHandler('Login.Email', setEmail, { hint: 'Email input' });` is the same effort/value as decorating with `data-testid="email"`.

I can see myself using it if I didn't have to decorate, e.g. by having get_state return the react component tree, and then letting AI figure out which one is the "Login.email" input by itself. E.g. `<MyApp><LoginScreen><input name=email/> ...`

Any feature failing should still allow the traffic to continue. This should be the first bullet in the future actions list.

A blank tab is super useful when you just want to make some mental space. When you're taking a break but don't want to close everything down or switch to another app.

I wonder if it's the same as looking up and to the left when thinking?

I found the opposite personally. Something about the neatness and tidiness let my mind relax and see everything similar to a calm flowing stream. Tokyo is one of the most peaceful cities I've been to, even in the busy areas, and by far the biggest and most populated.

I never understood the criticism for late delivery from the tech community. We of all people should know how difficult estimating can be. I can cut Musky some slack on this one.

> Making art is hard. But art is mostly about surfacing the inner world, and only in part about skill. It’s unfortunate that art selects so strongly for skill.

Not to sound like a luddite, but I do question the idea that the skill gap is merely an inconvenience. I suspect learning how to paint or make music changes something in yourself which teaches you some deeper life lessons.

I've heard the phrase (paraphrased): No great work of art was made by a genius, genius comes to you unexpectedly like a gust of wind. It seems that cultivating these opportunities is the most an artist can do, and removing the skill gap seems to be removing the cultivation, the thing that changes you, the essence.

There seems to be a few of these inherent deep workings that we as a people keep coming back to, without knowing what they are or how to discuss them (personally at least!). Not to rain on your parade OP, the project looks fun and super useful to a lot people! Just something I ponder on at times.

Yeah the zapper is indispensable. Being able to filter content on platforms by the words in post titles is one of the best ways to not be exposed to toxic content.

Never leaving your subscriptions (never using the algorithm recommended feed) is not a solution because of second-hand toxicity, e.g. political posts in meme subreddits in an election year.

If anyone knows of a solution that works in Manifest V3 I'd love to hear it!

The amount of effort that went into this is crazy. Love it

The article goes into it a tiny bit, but the cost is the mental cost of when you do need to work on it, understanding it, and I would add keeping the tooling the same.

Encouraging devs to have their changes include all modules, even those that are old and mature and don't need to be touched, is a good way of ensuring this doesn't build up to where it becomes a problem.
