It's finally here!

Ghost 6.0 is the biggest update we've ever made — and it includes federated publishing for everyone, with ActivityPub ❤️

We also shipped a brand new native analytics sweet, and passed a pretty cool milestone. Independent publishers […]

There's something extremely satisfying about doing laundry while Claude Code builds stuff. Feels like a superpower

Life lesson of the day: do not attempt to take your keyring penknife into the Houses of Parliament.

Luckily, they have a store/retrieve system, unlike airports. 😮‍💨

I’ll leave it off my keyring until after my next visit…

1000% - I think it's already here, honestly. Still early stages, for sure, but that is very much a thing

Maxed out the $200/mo Claude Code plan, and there's no higher plan to upgrade to. Guess I'll just sit here and twiddle my thumbs.

I've officially shipped more code in the first 6 months of 2025 than in any of the past 5 years. Thk u Claude

Update: I exhausted Claude Code Max and have now moved to the $200 Pro Max Ultra Liquid Retina Dynamic Island HD plan

Why can't AI companies figure out sensible naming

Pretty much fully migrated from Cursor to Claude Code at this point. The UI isn't as nice but the pricing can't be beaten

Kagi Search - A Premium Search Engine Better search results with no ads. Welcome to Kagi (pronounced kah-gee), a paid search engine that gives power back to the user.

Really enjoying the Orion browser recently, made by Kagi.com (my favourite search engine) - it's even cleaner and more minimal than Arc.

Not as mature, but love how lightweight it is. Tons of potential.

I still think the 2017 Macbook 12" is, in terms of hardware, the best machine Apple has ever made. At ~900 grams it's lighter than any modern day Macbook "Air" - and far lighter and more capable than any iPad.

Truly, the ultimate travel laptop.

Don't think I'll ever sell mine. I just wish […]
