Maybe we just shouldn't fill out every optional text field with as much Claude nonsense as it can possibly fill in there. It really feels like they went from "Co-authored-by" propaganda to "You'll know, don't w

Without having tried JJ, as a hype chaser, I can say it's both worth it and not worth it. I run NixOS, work with Kubernetes, code Rust, use a 40% split, layered keyboard with Dvorak layout and open source firmware, kaj mi parolas Esper

When I have conversations with uncritical agentic coding maximalists, they will use "load-bearing" in daily speech. I don't cringe when I know it went through their head, because they didn't literally copy-paste it. It&#

The miniatures come prepainted but as tiny bits, like a croissant, or a lamp, or a sofa. So it's not so much about painting them as it is gluing tiny magnets to them and making small installations that are repluggable. Some of the item

My wife collects and resells these miniatures. It is quite fascinating. It's kind of like Warhammer.

My toddler will get impatient, lose interest and leave the screen with the 1980s cartoons, and he will be glued to Teletubbies until we peel him off the screen. I reckon that a big part is the attention span (average length of scene, amount

I have somehow accepted that it's impossible to distinguish a spammer and an earnest newcomer. There is only one metric of an honest mailserver and that is time spent not blacklisted. This is true "proof of work" on behalf of

I never have this exact problem. It's rare that my stale prompt has a "git" in it. Most of my git commands have mnemonic aliases like "gs", "gd", "gl". I usually have the problem where a stale &q

I just spent a day writing very thorough system prompts for communicating in different contexts. Everything is super succinct. Opus 5 lands, it almost completely disregards the intent. I suppose watermarking requires a certain text mass.

They certainly aren't exclusive. But as the host OS I use Talos Linux, which itself is declarative and minimal. For small Kubernetes version upgrades, I upgrade the kubelet with an API command. When that isn't possible, I upload a
