Running out of one's Claude Max subscription weekly quota on day 5, for like the 10th week in a row, makes me really want to get a more powerful local model at home. Eyeing that Mac Studio with 512 of RAM now.

Here's Windows Terminal in C# and Avalonia instead of C++ and WinUI. Next steps would be Ghostty and cross-platform support 👇

Reviewing code that’s all “load-bearing belt-and-suspenders”. That’s my boy Claude in action.

I will miss Tim Apple at the helm. #GoodMornang #Apple #TimCook #TimApple

I love TACO Tuesdays

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it. This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.

One day, "It" will happen, by which I mean sudden and unexpected news that you want to celebrate. In such cases, you will want the right outfit. 🧵

New Mac Smell

Saw this today, I am all 4 of them.

All I want is a device/appliance that lets me run Claude Opus 4.6 locally (in my home network). I’m sure that is doable.

"Politicians and diapers must be changed often, and for the same reason." - Mark Twain #Truth

hate llms all you like, the one thing they are now exceptional at is the "this doesn't compile, please fix it" loop

I better go and try this openclaw thing before the next thing comes along and then I never did it

FROM THE ROOFTOPS

since no one feels like celebrating the current occupant of the office how about we dedicate today to these guys instead

"A modern-day concentration camp ... People have been killed by the staff here." Irish citizen Seamus Culleton has been in ICE detention since September, despite having a valid work permit and his own business in the US.

The average developer salary is my new GenAI signal. If it's really about developers leveraging AI and unlocking new value, then I expect salaries to increase. If GenAI is about increasing profit margins, then I expect the average developer salary, and headcount, to decrease over time.

Someday people will look back on 2026 and wonder how we let it get this bad. At least some of us can tell our grandkids we fought for what was right.

I guess I do think if you participated in the arrest of a five-year-old you are probably just fundamentally incompatible with society. That you are not a safe person for humanity to be around, generally

I didn’t expect Neil Stephenson’s Anathem to end the way it does… Nice read!

Men who defend Jonathan Ross for murdering Renee Good are not safe to be around. End those relationships.

Just read this article, my intuition tells me the next targeted takeovers will be Panama (due to the canal), Nicaragua (due to political misalignment and the lake), and perhaps also Costa Rica (due to economic, technological and ecological value). www.reuters.com/world/americ...

They’re holding him up with scotch tape and glue at this point.

Well finally get to see those amazing Chinese EVs in North America!

My iPad is possessed. It randomly starts playing music once in a while, as it rests unused on my desk; sometimes even while I sleep. Random songs from Apple Music. Anyone else getting this odd behavior?

I agree with the sentiment of this image, it strongly makes me feel like society has failed these men who chose to work for ICE. This is our generation's problem now.

Today I learned that in Linux, pwsh's Copy-Item doesn't work very well for copying files, it's unreliable as it silently fails to copy - not ideal when you're migrating thousands of files between nodes. Instead, stick to using the cp command.

OH: “you’re a Mac in the streets but an HP in the sheets”

The real reason I travel ever month is that I love the rice and beans burrito in terminal 6 of LAX

Connection to the users and their desire paths is the most important path of working in security and nobody goddamn does it. You are gonna make compromises. And they're all gonna be worth it. Because you understand what they want and you're gonna deliver it and they're gonna stop doing stupid shit.

I'm getting 500s from the Apple Music servers and it's a great excuse to get my CDs out.

Oh if you insist.
