Where are people buying domains from these days? I saw @vercel.com just redid their domain buying workflow, but wasn't seeing anything about WHOIS privacy protection.

Please reach out if you have an open role or any connections!

Some projects I've lead:
- Complete normalization of all tables and fields in a MySQL database
- Migrated a production database from MySQL to PostgreSQL (leading to an ETL pipeline that ran 50% faster)
- Designed database schemas for multiple data collection systems supporting federal reporting

Hi everyone! I really hoped I'd never have to make a post like this, but I have been laid off.

I'm open to a remote or in-person role and I'm willing to relocate.

I have experience across the data stack and also as a back-end engineer

For some reason, I find myself switching between Zed's built in agent tooling and opencode.ai in the terminal.

The big reason I like Zed's AI tooling is being able to individually Accept and Reject code blocks

True 😂

What are we actually expecting from this open model at this point? A SOTA model you could host locally? A GPT4 level model?

The thing I'd be most interested in would be them giving us some insight in their training data.

I wonder if this will force out a lot of older farmers, and move us to more corporately owned farms that have larger acreages and less employees

The Pragmatic Engineer 2025 Survey results are out!

In it:

- Most loved (and hated) tools
- Most-used AI tools
- IDEs and terminals
- Version control, CI/CD

Devs LOVE VS Code, JetBrains IDEs and... Cursor! (and tend to hate JIRA)

How are you configuring that for Claude Code? I'd be interested in seeing if I can get a PR in OpenCode to allow that

opencode The AI coding agent built for the terminal.

Have you thought of also integrating with OpenCode? opencode.ai. I personally have switched over to using it over ClaudeCode

This reminds me I need to recalculate the layout for my side project 😂

Any chances of getting a RSS feed?

I use @lmstudio-ai.bsky.social since it can use MLX as the backend without any tweaking

This was a nice experiment 🥹

Reducing the Cognitive Load with TODOs - Thomas' Blog Thomas' Blog

I wrote a quick little blog post about using TODOs in your code to reduce the cognitive load while working on large projects.

Check it out: lazarust.github.io/2025/05/13/r...

Most people are using AI to code the wrong way (as Torsten put it "Copilot-style completions). Tab completions are just a much better experience and pushes the LLM out of the way unless it's actually doing something useful.

Great read from Thorsten!

Was there a reason you chose Qwen2.5-Coder, or was it just the fastest/simplest to get working?

I'd be interested in having it use multiple models and comparing their outputs.

stinking spring forward

if we're going to keep up w/ these shenanigans we should at least move it to so we lose a monday hour instead of the weekend's

Under the U.S Constitution, the President is very explicitly not a king. The President's wishes and decrees do not magically become law.

I've used Ollama and then the command line to `cat` a bunch of markdown files into a prompt and found some relative success with it.

It was not as nice as I would've wanted it to be, though, and felt a little clunky

TIL about Hammerspoon! Thanks, this seems super useful!!

Is there an easy way to set that up? I never use my function keys but this sounds super useful!

Any chance you allow running Zeta locally and connecting it to Zed via Ollama?

GitHub - oxideai/mlx-rs: Unofficial Rust bindings to Apple's mlx framework Unofficial Rust bindings to Apple's mlx framework. Contribute to oxideai/mlx-rs development by creating an account on GitHub.

To the Rust and ML enthusiasts: I'm sharing the first feature-complete (sort of) version of mlx-rs, a new crate providing idiomatic Rust bindings for MLX! Now you can harness the power of MLX while writing Rust code 🚀
