- I havent used windows in years at this point, but I feel this on the products I am forced to use for work. Basic features are not right, kinda work most of the time. New features, ai integrations, new skin/design, but still teams can’t use my system mic appropriately yet every other app does. Also feel this computers have not got significantly better since around getting ssds. Yes they are better, but not at the same rate of being obsolete every two years. I hope we hit local model land and it flips this a bit, not in quite the obsolete every two years range, but some new hardware actually lets you do meaningful more new things.

How to Install Silksong mods on the Steam Deck Having a tough time with Hollow Knight: Silksong? These mods will help. Long Play Tech · longplaytech.com [1] Really good tutorial for how to mod silksong on the steam deck. We just did this on my son’s steam deck. I’d add a reccomendation to map ~ to a back button like L4. I think this guy was docked with a keyboard. Note This post is a thought [2].

Building For The Future This afternoon, we sent the following email to our global team. One of our core values at Cloudflare is transparency, and we believe it The Cloudflare Blog · blog.cloudflare.com [1] Full salary for the rest of the year after being let go. As much as this sucks as much as the job market sucks. It’s good to see that these companies laying off huge numbers during good times are trying to take care of those they brought on.

Programming Still Sucks. — Writing Sorry Peter. — I'm at a birthday party, and while most people here also work in tech, there's always a Guy with a Real Job. You know, a physical job, building some or other thing people need. And... stvn.sh [1] Absolute banger of a post, this is the time we are living in. Explain “are you afraid AI is going to take your job” to a non tech blue collar worker. Broken over promises, greed, and projects mismanaged by leadership who has no idea what the day to day work actually does and how critical it is. I’m not quite in Sara’s position, but I feel something shielded by half of this working deep inside of a non tech part of a non tech company leading a very small rag tag team with get shit done attitude. But I feel it, I see colleagues hit by these blasts.b I get clipped with shrapnel from some of the largest blasts. But nothing as significant as I see many others hit with Note This post is a thought [2].

I just learned that forgejo has a push to create repo feature and it is a gamechanger.

nless is a seriously sick tui for exploring streaming data. It makes it seriously simple to pivot (U), drill in (Enter), sort (s). It leave breadcrumbs as you go and you can press q to back out.

Red Squares — the GitHub outage graph A satirical contribution graph: red squares track GitHub.com platform outages instead of green squares tracking commits. red-squares.cian.lol [1] yet another interesting visualization of github outages. These guys are getting raked over the coals. It really sucks to see. Not quite tears to my eyes mitchelh [2]. But it feels like a core part of opensource has been dying for a few years now and is now getting ripped to shreds. The central location for open source is becoming more fragmented and I don’t see a path to where it ever gets any better. Note This post is a thought [3].

Desktop Crash 2026 | Nic Payne PC Crash Desktop crashed days ago, apparently my primary drive has been going bad for a while and eventually it just died. live-booted to ubuntu server found re pype.dev [1] I’m taking this as a reminder to treat every machine like its about to catch fire, any machine with a user regularly using it already has the match lit. I need to go through and commit draft blog posts, dirty homelab [2] POC’s need to get out or get in, and not forever be in limbo. My efforts this year have been well intention ed to keep projects clean, on main, not dirty, but I think agents are making it worse before they make it better. I have some new ideas forming and old ideas for managing this have failed me. Note This post is a thought [3].

Artemis II Photo Timeline An interactive photo timeline of NASA artemistimeline.com [1] Hank Greed made a really cool site to explore the Artemis II mission with Claude Code. Now this is what agentic coding is for, such a cool app to scroll around on and visualize when the photos were taken. Listening to the video is sounded really hard to get all of the data to line up correctly, between devices and timezones it ws not straightforward even though all of the schedules and images were made public.

markata-go now has web awesome integration for image compare. It renders a nice web component with a slider to compare two images. It’s done with a class wrapper around the image components. ::: wa-comparison   ::: Without markata-go’s web awesome integration, the above would look like: <script type="module"> import 'https://ka-f.webawesome.com/[email protected]/components/comparison/comparison.js'; </script> <wa-comparison> <img slot="before" src="https://dropper.wayl.one/file/d628ffba-de18-4fff-91a8-700f037df119.webp" alt="Grayscale version of kittens in a basket looking around." /> <img slot="after" src="https://dropper.waylonwalker.com/file/ca30665f-1a15-453e-aab8-221901c7df99.webp" alt="Color version of kittens in a basket looking around." /> </wa-comparison>
