There, I fixed it. 🙃 #why2025

i’m at #WHY2025 this long weekend :blobcatcomfy: :ablobcatheartsqueeze: :blobcatglowsticks:

I have been learning a bit of robotics and at the same time building my first robot. 🤖 Today, for fun, I made it play a little bit of boxing 🥊

Cool stuff!! So happy 😀

The WWDC announcements I'm most excited about are the new Foundation Models framework (for accessing Apple's on-device LLMs) and the Containerization framework for running Docker-style containers without hosting them all in a Linux VM - here's links to relevant docs for both of those […]

“Don’t Look Up” @ Netflix should be considered almost a documentary

Spider robot seeing in the dark with some leg parts like coxa and femur printed with fluorescent blue like 3D filament. The spider is on a support and posing mid walking movement

Starting easy by using a already designed model. Adding some flair by printing some parts with fluorescent filament

Now I’m picking up robotics as a hobby.. meaning becoming a hobbyist electrical, electronics, industrial designer, and machine learning engineer on the side :thonking: :blobcat_glitch:

I am getting a package from DPD today. I am already impressed that I have a time slot, DHL wouldn’t tell me anything

I see a new trend of >200 EUR subscriptions.. wtf.

It's so frustrating when I order something online then turns out days later the item wasn't even in stock. The website shows nothing, so I have to call and ask why it was not sent yet. :ablobcatkeyboardbreak:

I’m gonna sell my SteamDeck. I love it and it’s brand new. But honestly I’m not a gamer. I think someone else will make better use of it than me.

Ok, I got a new 3D printer. Time to move on from Ender3 2018 edition. :thinkhappy: :blobcatcomfysmirk:

I would like to make a cool project to take with me to #why2025 . Maybe a robot of some kind... thinking..

It should be a crime to be this sunny on a Monday :ablobcatbongokeyboard: :blobcatOh:

Ok, decided to go for a bike ride. Such a nice day today. Not usual to have sunny days, so I must enjoy while I can. :battery_full: :pokeball:

Party in the Netherlands today. I will enjoy staying cosy at home :blobcatcomfy:

Release v0.19.0 · sharksforarms/deku Features Added bit_order (#483) After much development, bit_order is now a supported attribute! Msb is still the default bit-order for all operations, but if you need Lsb ordering, deku now has you...

BitOrder is finally released! https://github.com/sharksforarms/deku/releases/tag/deku-v0.19.0

I ate sushi today, just that. It has been a while... :ablobcatcoffee:

Wow! GoToSocial latest version (0.19.0) with loads of goodies. I'm glad I decided to use it instead of Mastodon for my main profile in the fediverse.

I was very skeptical of using LLMs for coding. Felt it was super distracting and wasting my time by driving me to wrong solutions.

Then I learned that I am more productive, by many orders of magnitude, if I do the opposite. I know what I want and I drive the LLMs to do what I already know that […]

llm install llm-fragments-github llm -f github:simonw/llm \ -f issue:simonw/llm/938 \ -m gemini-2.5-pro-exp-03-25 \ --system 'muse on this issue, then propose a whole bunch of code to help implement it'

My llm-fragments-github plugin has a new feature that lets you import the markdown for an issue thread using -f issue:org/repo/number - so now you can feed it the repo contents with -f github:simonw/llm and an issue and tell it to "muse on this issue […]

UI of the logging tool. Possible to see the filtering options and logs

I frequently need to analyze GStreamer logs. I find it difficult to analyze sometimes, I have created a small utility that I wish existed. It is available here: https://gstreamerlogs.caricio.com/

and its opensource, of course.

I won’t be able to go to FOSDEM this year :tisti:

Wow!! 🤯 wtf https://mstdn.social/@rysiek/113851788871008052

GitHub stars are not a success metric. Specifically when the projects you are comparing to are not primarily developed in GitHub :blobcatsipglare:

Back at writing some Rust and GStreamer for a bit. :ablobcatheartsqueeze:

great day! :blobcatheart:
