Do people know I’m building an alternative to Electron and Tauri?

Where you write typescript for the main and browser code and it just works.

Has building, packaging, code signing, and update management built in. Bundles as small as 12MB and ship updates as small as 4KB?

electrobun.dev
This is a very big deal and will give designers an incredible new super power to ship web apps and code components for the web, deployed to Webflow Cloud and integrated with their sites, style systems, and data designed and built with Webflow’s NoCode editor.

The future.

Dreo has the best customer support I’ve ever experienced in my life. Two emails (one for help and one for documenting the issue) and then within 24 hours a brand new replacement was at my door.

This is also an unbelievably good air fryer btw.

Duolingo now has “chess with strangers” as their chess.com integration deepens.

It’ll be interesting to see because it directly competes with chess.com’s own ai analysis and learning platform.

Feels like leading toward acquisition.

opened mixpanel for the first time in 2025. apparently people are actually visiting electrobun.dev

I'm about to change all the urls and rebrand everything 🙈

I had no idea this many people were reading the docs or finding the site (vs just living on github where docusaurus is also)

To resolve his new barking issues I’ve been teaching him to “speak” when he wants something.

When he gets very excited he still can’t regulate but for 7 months he’s making acceptable progress.

It helped that the day before i made him study youtube videos of other dogs in the snow so once we got out there he knew what to do.

I ran out of github action minutes

The full colab build (no cache) was taking 90 mins

Now I have a local mac vm for isolation as a self hosted runner, that github actions uses for me.

The entire thing without cache now takes 10mins. Mostly waiting for notarization. Unlimited minutes.

staying up late on a saturday night getting co(lab) - community edition to build in CI

`npm version prerelease` doesn't increment semver. so if you've already shipped 1.4.2 to production and start working on the next iteration it'll be 1.4.2-beta.0.

this doesn't make any sense at all. the next iteration should be one of:
1.4.3-beta
1.5.0-beta
1.6.5-beta

what am i missing

Our ai-powered air fryer died last night while trying to get meatballs over the finish line. It was a member of the family & had recently been elevated in status above dog (whom we are not allowed to eat and is unable to cook for us due to several congenital limitations)

Please donate your sympathy

“You punished a structurally incoherent opening with perfect conversion:
1. Expose the king (Bxf8).
2. Exploit weak light squares (Ng5/Nf7/Nxd6).
3. Transition smoothly into a winning endgame.
4. Finish with clean, forcing checks.”

I’d like to consolidate the nerd sniping and rage baiting into a single more manageable thread.

Please provoke me as a reply to this post, by sharing something you’re frustrated about, and I’ll either join you in your frustration, or explain to you why you’re wrong. 🧵
