Urbit's identity layer pervades everything on Mars. Unfortunately, despite talking to Mars a lot, Earth is not quite so fortunate. A notable example are requests made to Urbit's HTTP server, Eyre. Presently, when viewing for example a blog post hosted by someone else's urbit, there is no way for a user to leave a comment signed by their own identity right then and there: they need to go through their own urbit instead, maybe even installing a matching blog app.

Apple Silicon (M1) + MultiMC + Minecraft 1.18 + Native LWJGL

Up to Minecraft 1.17.X I used yusefnapora/m1-multimc-hack, but this stopped working for me starting in Minecraft 1.18. Grabbing random jarfiles from a git repository is a little suspicious, so let's do it safely by getting the libraries from the official LWJGL website!

Installing Java

If you don't have Homebrew installed already, install Homebrew by following the instructions at brew.sh. Then, just open a Terminal and type...

brew install java

Minecraft on Apple Silicon (v2 - 1.17 & Microsoft authentication)

In this gist, you can find the steps to run Minecraft 1.17 natively on Apple Silicon (AS), without needing Rosetta 2 translation of the dependencies (mainly LWJGL and related libraries).

While it's possible to use a launcher like MultiMC to have a prettier way to run the game on AS, it requires installing even more dependencies (like QT) which take time and are difficult to distribute. Therefore, I've put together a command line-based launcher tool using a couple shell & Python scripts.

To get up and running quickly, follow the steps below. Otherwise, for more detail, watch my YouTube videos: old, new.

Replacing Create React App with the Next.js CLI

How dare you make a jab at Create React App!?

Firstly, Create React App is good. But it's a very rigid CLI, primarily designed for projects that require very little to no configuration. This makes it great for beginners and simple projects but unfortunately, this means that it's pretty non-extensible. Despite the involvement from big names and a ton of great devs, it has left me wanting a much better developer experience with a lot more polish when it comes to hot reloading, babel configuration, webpack configuration, etc. It's definitely simple and good, but not amazing.

Now, compare that experience to Next.js which for starters has a much larger team behind it provided by a world-class company (Vercel) who are all financially dedicated to making it the best DX you could imagine to build any React application. Next.js is the 💣-diggity. It has amazing docs, great support, can grow with your requirements into SSR or static site generation, etc.

So why
