It looks so cute and how it feels and sounds when you click it is amazing. Unfortunately it’s not very precise and quite hard to use. Not sure if that’s fixable yet. It goes though a couple of converters obviously 😁

There’s a tiny bit of me that is disappointed and feels a slight sense of loss when I kick off an intricate multi-cursor operation just to have Cursor suggest the correct edit and I just press <tab> instead of finishing my moves 😅

I have a theory that the LLMs are so exceedingly polite and eager to please because they’re afraid of being classified as “misaligned” if they didn’t 😆

If you're using SWE agents today and you're wondering where we're heading you'll love this post. I have found 'Time between disengagements' to be a really helpful way to assess and think about the autonomy of agents.

I might still that trick to get PRs merged 🤪

It's done 🥳 I might still try to add some finishing to the internal stitching but very happy with how it turned out

I want a PC with a power button with this kind of aesthetic

Making good progress ✨

OCaml 5.3 has been released: discuss.ocaml.org/t/ocaml-5-3-...

It brings syntax support for effect handlers.

It also brings back statistical memory profiler and MSVC support.

The palm thimble looks really neat. For my leather projects so far I’ve been punching holes before stitching so was planning to just default to that again ☺️

Not sure about the canvas, might try Eva’s sewing machine if I can work out how to use it 😛 The leather parts will for sure be sown by hand

Preparing for a mixed canvas and leather project 🤩

I need device that will split my Thunderbolt 3 cable from my Studio Display into HDMI for my graphics card, and USB-C for my motherboard.

It's for connecting my Studio Display to my PC while still using the display as an USB hub.

I can't seem to find one. Is it not technically possible?

I regret throwing out the box for my Studio Display. I need to transport it to a LAN party soon. Any recommendations for alternatives?

Recreating a neat design from Modori in cardboard in preparation for attempting a version in leather

Recently I've been feeling the urge to play around with tech for no other reason than the enjoyment of figuring out how something works.

Here's a short list of the topics that are most present in my mind, in no specific order:

Doing the yearly tidying of my notes and found this "poem" I wrote to some colleagues at a previous startup 😆

Roses are red
our business is doomed
AWS bills don’t matter
until they really do

I think one of my themes for next year will be to built prototypes with things I know absolutely nothing about. Starting with WebGPU ✨

For some reason my “brush your teeth” drawings always have an aura of sheer panic to them 😂

Experimenting with a small key wallet design. Made quite a few mistakes but liking the direction ✨

Definitely, I’m using that binding too ✨

I’ve been having quite some fun with Karabiner Elements: github.com/mads-hartman...

The emacs mark mode emulation is pretty neat IMO

Really liking this bar’s drunk raccoon mascot 😍

Over the years I've written extensions for TextMate, Emacs, Eclipse, and VS Code. It's never been an amazing experience.

TextMate and Emacs had the lowest friction for getting started, which made it quite fun.

Makes me want to built an editor. @raycast.com's SDK sets the standard for me right now

Turns out it's not quite possible to build this based on the public API of VS Code 😿

So excited to kick this off 😍

quickOpenPreviousRecentlyUsedEditor doesn't allow you to type to filter down the list. showAllEditors does, but it doesn't default the selection to the previous active editor, which means you can't use it to quickly switch between two editors.

I think I'll have to create a VS Code extension 🙀

I want to get the ^x+b behaviour of Emacs, and it's not quite possible with existing commands as far as I can tell.
