This. I honestly have concerns about the U-turn on the upcoming MacBook. Also, whoever touches my monitors is getting slapped.

How do the cool kids sync agent context/memory between computers these days? Got tired of tar -cf the second time I did it.

Looks like rclone + any supported remote storage + encryption + a pair of mise tasks for push and pull could do the trick.

The fact that the official Ruby Docker images only become available hours after the release of a hotfix is probably not ideal.

tired: probably the worst cybersecurity vulnerability ever gets disclosed wired: the Internet will remember the date of my wedding forever

TIL that [:theme, colors: []] is valid Ruby syntax for array literals. Which makes sense as a parallel to method signatures, but I still find it weird. Love it.

It's possible to deliver quality code with genAI just like it's possible to be on a diet in a candy shop.

We don’t say “you need to accept that Terraform manages infra better than you,” know why? Because it’s a tool and we evaluate tools by how well they are designed to meet our needs. We do not bully people by telling them it’s on some absolute scale of being better or worse than a person.

The new remote is interesting, but Find My would be useless to me. My couch is not a portal to another dimension or anything.

The most controversial Linux distro of 2026 just added floating windows, and I'm choking with laughter.

GitHub Actions timed out so hard last night that my whole free 2000-minute allowance for October has vanished. Something something Azure. I can't anymore.

I have a spare 2018 Mac mini. Intel i7, 6 cores, 16GB RAM. I’m looking for suggestions for what to do with it. I don’t have a reasonable use case for keeping it that couldn’t be better served by a cheap VPS. Ideas?

Hot take of the day: decoupling SMTP envelope addresses from MIME header addresses was a fundamental mistake.

Hey @alexbenzer.com 👋🏻 I was wondering if the bsky app could keep the timeline scroll after loading new posts. That would be a very welcome feature imho. Thanks for your work on bsky!

AliExpress please stop notifying me about things that haven’t changed at all, thanks.

Not a week past the beginning of autumn and the house is riddled with crawling and flying bugs of all sorts. Not ideal. Still better than summer tho.

Do it. Write that piece of code by hand. You have free will, don’t you. So, why not. You know you can. Go wild. Go insane. Do it for the plot.

You know something has gone wrong on the Internet when suddenly a famous self-proclaimed uncle's takes on social media sound more reasonable than most other tech bros’.

Initializing a Mac from a Time Machine backup taken on a different Mac sort of works. “Sort of” because apps don’t know they’ve been moved and keep their original state, so, yeah. Chaos ensues.

New computer arrived 📦 New computer tiny 🥹 New computer FAST 🏃🏻‍♂️

So, uhm, does anybody know why AliExpress doesn’t have a “city” field for entering the shipping address? Only province. Postal code alone should do the trick, but I find it weird nonetheless. First-time customer, crossing fingers.

So. Much. This. Can we please have more of these mindset and approach?

Despite all the rolling tools and agentic coding breakthroughs, I still use AI for guided, surgical work, where I'm in complete control of the broader architecture, including having a strong mental model of it. I simply cannot function delegating everything to an agent.

Happy Euruko week! Who’s going to be in Brno for the conf? Also: what’s the most popular dog breed in Brno? The Brnese Shepherd 🥁

LFG!! 🇨🇦🇪🇺

WSJ: PM Mark Carney is exploring whether Canada could become an “associate member” of the European Union The EU is open to the idea. This would create a new membership status, per EU & Canadian officials.

Torn about where to draw the line on how much politics I can tolerate in my tech stack. I don't want to support the bad guys. I don't want to build my computer from scratch either. The quest for a reasonable middle ground is riddled with perils. The optimal compromise uncertain.Mala tempora currunt.

RIP Intel Macs 💀

Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 7.0.0. The most significant changes since 6.0.0 are faster installations, stronger sandboxing, native macOS app, vulnerability checks, advisory database, end of macOS 10.15 support and Intel Macs to Tier 3.

I don’t think we need to make computers fun again. They never stopped, if you ask me.
