Michael Arnaldi on X:

Hot take: TUIs are a phase, and GUIs that basically emulate TUIs are a phase too. We just don't know how the IDE of the future will look like.

He's talking about the arc of dev tools. Terminal, then Notepad++, then richer IDEs, then VSCode. Each phase building on the last, borrowing metaphors, adding chrome. What comes next?

But something about the question stuck with me.

Unix evolved under constraints. Teletypes. Tiny memory. Slow connections. Those limits forced everything through text — and text turned out to be strangely universal. Decades later, everything still speaks it.

Deployment plan: dato_tour → tour rename (PR #1418)

Deployment Plan: dato_tour → tour Rename (PR #1418)

Context

PR #1418 renames dato_tour → tour tables, switches 97 files, and establishes the foundation for admin-first tour creation. Existing tour rows keep DatoCMS IDs as Tour.id; new Tour.datoId column (nullable) links to DatoCMS content. New tours get cuid2 IDs.

Migration strategy: Expand-Contract (zero-downtime reads)

• Expand (this PR): New tables/columns created alongside old ones, data backfilled, old constraints relaxed

Migrating a Next.js blog to vinext (Cloudflare Workers): Hurdles

This documents the struggles encountered migrating a Next.js 15 blog (with MDX, Shiki syntax highlighting, and OG image generation) to vinext on Cloudflare Workers.

1. EvalError: Code generation from strings disallowed

The showstopper. @mdx-js/mdx's run() internally calls new Function() to evaluate compiled MDX. Workers completely blocks eval and new Function at request time.

EvalError: Code generation from strings disallowed for this context

Dato Tour Model — Field Audit

Why fromPrice is going away

The static fromPrice field in DatoCMS has been replaced by live inventory pricing (amount) from our booking providers. The static price was stale and misleading — it didn't reflect actual availability or seasonal pricing. We've removed it from all queries and components.

What changes for tours without inventory pricing? They simply show no price instead of a stale/incorrect one. This is cleaner and more honest.

Undanþága frá greiðslubyrðarreglum Seðlabankans — Memo og dæmi

Yfirlit

Seðlabanki Íslands setur reglur um hámark greiðslubyrðar fasteignalána í hlutfalli við tekjur. Hámarkið er 35% af ráðstöfunartekjum (eða 40% fyrir fyrstu kaupendur). Þó er til undanþága sem margir vita ekki af — og hún var tvöfölduð í lok árs 2025.
