Shredded oats is good though. The structure of it holds chocolate milk so well.

The case against conversational interfaces Conversational interfaces are a bit of a meme. Every couple of years a shiny new AI development emerges and people in tech go "This is it! The next computing paradigm is here! We'll only use natural l...

“The future isn’t about replacing existing computing paradigms with chat interfaces, but about enhancing them to make human-computer interaction feel effortless – like the silent exchange of butter at a well-worn breakfast table.”

“Most of our fears or anxieties about technology are best understood as fears or anxiety about how capitalism will use technology against us.” — Ted Chiang

The AI tools are nice but it’s important to lock-in and do some non-vibe coding every so often. Flow state is still a super power but you have to practice it.

Sometimes a for loop and cosine similarity is really all you need.

Funny enough, it took this cover by bones brigade to finally get me into minor threat

Rage had a pretty good cover

Looks like there are some EXRs in the 3D asset section

Did you have to learn Morse code for this?

I’m also a fairly recent jogger-enjoyer. Vuori is probably the answer.

This is awesome

There’s probably a way to fake this with karabiner and uhhh Automator maybe? I’ll just wait for it to be added lol

Keybinding Action to "Bring all to front" · Issue #4704 · ghostty-org/ghostty Discussed in #4696 Originally posted by massimopalmieri January 6, 2025 It would be great to be able to have a keybind action to focus the terminal ("Bring all to front"), just like toggle_visibili...

There's already an issue for it 🙏

Ghostty Ghostty is a fast, feature-rich, and cross-platform terminal emulator that uses platform-native UI and GPU acceleration.

Trying out Ghostty and liking it so far. Only thing I'm really missing for my workflow is a bring-to-front hotkey.

I like to bind cmd-` in iTerm to jump to the terminal from anywhere so I can always get to it quickly.

Map of Norfolk, VA with tree data overlaid.

Another render with geometry nodes in blender.

I’m using Norfolk’s open data to get tree positions/sizes (as trunk width) and overlaying on OSM tiles.

Also using the CSV importer by @kolibril13.bsky.social to get the data into blender 🙏

A dataset of trees in Norfolk, VA plotted spatially to form a rough map of the city.

It’s been long enough that I can admit this publicly:

The metalocalypse/dethklok album kinda ripped. I’m sick of pretending it didn’t.

The logo should get 10% bigger for each complaint

Side benefit of this is it forces me to tidy up at the end of the day. Any cables or cords that aren’t picked up/taped down will absolutely be eaten by the robot.

Recently semi-automated air quality in my office:

- robovac and air purifier run full blast 7-8:30am
- humidifier turns on if humidity goes below 40%
- air quality sensor nudges me to take a break if CO2 gets too high

Thought it was familiar lol. Mine is literally made of cardboard and scotch tape.

Is this for LED output? 👀

Honestly, it was part of the template and I did this on a whim. I was just tired of next/sanity. But it’s also a good excuse to play with TinaCMS and I can easily remove it later if needed.

DNS/https changes might still be settling 🙃

I’ll add work/experiments and more style changes later. Half of the work links were dead anyways. Going to make an effort to keep things as simple as possible with this iteration.

Rebuilt descend.org with Astro, TinaCMS, and GitHub Pages using @cassidoo.co’s blahg template.

Previous version used nextjs/sanity/vercel. The hope is to do more writing and Tina works better with plain markdown files.
