BumpMesh by CNC Kitchen
Add displacement textures to STL, OBJ, and 3MF models directly in your browser. Preview, mask, bake, and export printable textured meshes locally.
BumpMesh · bumpmesh.com [1]
Absolutely sick texture app from cnc kitchen. Like him I’ve spent a bunch of time attempting and failing to learn blender, I’m so glad someone else vibe coded out such a good app that can just add texture to stls with basic masks and is the very basics of what you would want to add to 3d prints to make them interesting, I’m excited to use this for some real projects.

smassh is the coolest monkeytype tui clone, its impressively accurate. Easy to install and run, all the same themes appear to be there and everything. maybe a good way to get a few reps in while agents are running these days.

What Happens When AI Stops Being Artificially Cheap
The subsidy era is ending. Here
danielmiessler.com [1]
I’ve been thinking about this for awhile and Daniel makes some great arguments here. Interestingly keeping inference cheap removes the incentives to make our tools better, help us choose the right model, lean on local models, open weight models. The frontier models are so affordable through subsidized subscription models why would you deal with anything less intelligent at this point. The tooling we use is not optimized for it, and why should it be.

emacs config so bad he launch obsidian, YIKES! grantid I’m using obsidian currently on my phone, not for this post, but for journal entries while I’m away from my desk. Use this as a reminder that you can swim through murky waters with your dotfiles for awhile, but occasionally its good to do a clean up, pin it, put em in a docker image, have a good fallback to go to if shit really hits the fan. Iv’e been using https://github.com/waylonwalker/nvim-manager as part of my strategy for awhile now.

pype.dev [1]
We f&#ing said @pype [2], well f&#ing said. I think a lot of us are feeling this, we’ve pitched our brain into a bucket and we are no longer stretching it in the same way. We still work in similar ways of old, with new ways of turning off and saying yes a bunch of times. the best thing I can hope for is that as things get better we have fewer yes loops, and more architectural design debates and deep thoughts. But I fear deep thoughts are gone to the way of “research the leading 10 frameworks and pick the best one for this project.” and letting the clankers do the deep thinking. Its signing us up for a weird distopia.
I think a lot of us wish we could undo what has happened and go back to actually understanding what we are doing, but the world has changed, and if you are building average shit, like the average person, using models trained on average people doing average shit you cant keep up anymore.

I’m in step with @pype [2] here, I really want beads to work for me, but my systems for infra/platform work are all over the place, not one repo. I’m considering trying the BEADS_DIR env var but idk if it fits my workflow. For now, similar to @pype [2], I am rocking my own home vibed solution that I’ve intentionally put little effort in and its working great and I expect it to be broken and not working with the latest harnesses and models within a few months anyways, cause there is no predicting this train.

oof, outage on the homelab [2] during vacation, brutal. I can think of a couple of similar solutions to what @pype [3] has done to tailscale in, but I’m not sure that I could do this remotely. On one hand I’m so glad that cloudflared just takes care of certs on the other hand this really brings a gap in my understanding of what the heck I would do if it were broken.
An untested DR plan is not a DR plan.

Vibe coding [1] is going so far into the news sphere now that Adam Savage even weighs in with perspectives from someone who has built a life around building things with his hands, keeping up with new making techniques, discovering old techniques as they combine with new. He talks about 3d printing reviving his love of the pantograph as one automation technique eases the most difficult part of another.

I’ve been having issue with my keyboard disconnecting to my main desktop for
awhile. Today I got a cheap bluetooh dongle in and am giving it a run this
week to see how things go. The first step was to move it to the new adapter.
I’ve never had multiple adapters installed so this was a new to me process.
I was able to do it all with the same keyboard, It did require some juggling
between usb and bluetooth modes pluging and unplugging, two keyboards would be
simpler to reason about.
I can’t be bothered to change my brain to think about this machine on a
different zmk profile it is of absolute importance for it to remain on the same
profile, otherwise this would be a simple bind to another empty profile.
Why not use a cable on desktop?
I dont mind cable, and have used one on this setup for years, but I have
actually been picking up and moving this keyboard and using it with
different devices.
I’ve got a big battery and performace cranked up, unless my machine is
under load I do not notice any key lag.
I did it with bluetoothctl, I’m sure it could have been done with a gui like
blueberry or blueman.
