Yo le he pedido algo más básico para no apabullar.

Me he visto todo "Superestar" en dos días. Yo creo que después de esto ya me vuelven a dejar entrar en el país el martes.

TIRED: “learn to code!”

Yo estoy pensando en darle otra oportunidad. De momento sigo usando Workflowy para casi todo. Lo que me atrae de Obsidian es poder tenerlo todo en archivos markdown locales.

Instapaper sigue igual que hace 15 años. Hay algún servicio nuevo, pero yo voy a intentar usar algo que pueda controlar mejor. Obsidian con un par de plugins puede ser una opción.

Justo esta semana estaba pensando en lo abandonado que está Pocket y la de posibilidades que tendría con un buen uso de IA. Mozilla no levanta cabeza, como les quiten el dinero de Google…

screenshot from an online job application form. the question reads "Can you describe specific ways you have integrated AI tools into your development workflow? Please include any custom setups, automations, or use cases beyond single prompt usage" (a red asterisk indicates that this is a required question). an answer has been typed in the textbox below the question: "there is a monster in the forest and it speaks with a thousand voices. it will answer any question you pose it, it will offer insight to any idea. it will help you, it will thank you, it will never bid you leave. it will even tell you of the darkest arts, if you know precisely how to ask. it feels no joy and no sorrow, it knows no right and no wrong. it knows not truth from lie, though it speaks them all the same. it offers its services freely to any passerby, and many will tell you they find great value in its conversation. “you simply must visit the monster—i always just ask the monster.” there are those who know these forests well; they will tell you that freely offered doesn’t mean it has no price for when the next traveler passes by, the monster speaks with a thousand and one voices. and when you dream you see the monster; the monster wears your face."

Yo le tengo tirria a Seth Rogen, pero la verdad es que está impecable.

This might be 'too little, too late', but I really like the vertical tabs in the new Firefox. They are still missing some basic features in a modern browser (PWA support, tab groups) but hopefully they can catch up soon.

Valencia (Venezuela)? O tal vez Valencia (California)? :)

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:

Hace poco visité uno de los edificios más increíbles de España (y diría que del mundo): la sede del Instituto del Patrimonio Cultural de España. Obra brutalista de los 60 pero finalizada en los 80, con cosas como jardines colgantes interiores o una de las pocas bibliotecas concéntricas que existen.

Siempre ha sido un cantamañanas… que se declare amiguete de Musk no sorprende.

Normalmente es más rápido teclear ‘brew install loquesea’ que ir a la web de la aplicación, descargarla e instalarla. También es súper útil para clonar setups!

I still use Pocket because of the browser extensions, but I also have a Zapier automation that backs up the links (with tags, descriptions and everything else) to Workflowy, which is where I store all of my notes. You could do the same with Obsidian or whatever notes app you like.
