Gentlemen. You have entered a restroom with just a stall and urinal. The urinal is occupied. Do you: A) Use the stall 2) Exit and return later D) Stand awkwardly behind the person using the urinal making old-man throat clearing sounds

The details are now public, as of two hours ago. bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi... The secret P-384 keys for these intermediate CAs are all zeros except the last 8 bits. All not-updated software can be MITM'ed now. IOT boxes that can't or don't update are now trivially MITM'able forever.

A beautiful day at the docks.

Throwback to the days when 1Password didn't require 5 separate clicks to sign-in to a website. Unlock -> Touch ID -> Unlock -> Passkey? -> Unlock -> Cry

My first listen on Spotify was … Coldplay?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! open.spotify.com/presents/par...

Low tide so low some boats are sitting on their hulls.

Fresh pots!

Morning team. Slack issues, how you doin?

Briefly signed into Xitter today. 🫠

Looks like crabbing season opens today. 🦀

"34 skill descriptions dropped · /doctor for details" Can I just go back to MCPs?

On a related note, if you’d like to listen to the Seattle contingent of sea lions, check out www.sealionradio.org

At some point, somebody (probably Anthropic already has this) is going to be build a tool that doesn't require Claude Code to shell out to `python -c` constantly.

Fired up aperture by Tailscale...instantly alerted to the fact that my starting prompt is 40k tokens. Not terrible and I think it's par for the course as most of it is system prompt type stuff, but the insight is so nice.

Olympic mountains but from a sliiiiightly different perspective than usual.

You asked and we listened! For years, the community has been asking for a new design in Home Assistant. Something modern and timeless, something to match the power of the platform. We’re pleased to announce that an improved UI trial is now available. 👇

Wordle, but for devops.

Found my next car. 👀

Big fan of moving every few years…if only to avoid watching everyone else age while I somehow stay the same. 🫠

I've spent the whole day being excited that my Claude weekly limit got unexpectedly reset before it was supposed to get reset Thursday night. I just realized it's Friday. 🫠

My Claude just spit this out into a PR. 🙊 > it was a half-way-house HTML view that added confusion without adding value

Are runbooks dead yet? Asking for a friend...

Remember when we just used to share our dotfiles? github.com/garrytan/gst...

Meanwhile, ChatGPT is over here pitching me a DuckDB-backed RRDTool. (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

Attempting to do a remote upgrade of Talos completely through a homegrown autonomous Claude environment...what could possibly go wrong?!

Ever try to buy your kid a kindle and get books onto it from the Libby app? GOOD LUCK

Really hate lying awake in the middle of the night trying to decide if those loud noises I heard were gunshots or fireworks. 😞

I already had to create an Eggo budget for my son and he’s not even a teenager yet. Wrecked. No cap.

The flow of heated air through a ventilation shaft. The squeaking brakes of a car as it approaches the end of an alley. Garage doors churning up as the hum of exhaust idles by. Sound is so tied into our daily lives. Our routines. Which is why I made this shitty thing: github.com/dacort/ai-ra...

Turns out AI still hasn't learned to deal with daylight savings...

I need this for my desk.

December 2025 through February 2026 was the 2nd warmest winter on record for the Contiguous U.S. according to Prism climate data. The widespread record to near record warmth in the west easily outweighed the cool temps in the east. 🔥🔥🔥

I wonder if Laser Tag could make a comeback…

Went skiing today…last time I did this skis had pointy tips and nobody wore helmets. #old Also #ouch
