    Ooh, I didn't know the creator of htmx was also the author of the Grug Brained Developer! [0][1] TIL. Thanks! Now all the Grug references in the shop make sense, as well as the wis…

    A limitation with this setup is you can't let your agent/Linux user run containers with docker. Adding a user to the `docker` group effectively grants the user full root privileges…

    You just made me realize why I've always considered 'chore' the most ambiguous type. In addition to being loosely defined ("transparent change with zero functionnal impact"?), this…

    Some alternative forge are built with decentralization in mind: - forgejo [1] is working on ForgeFed [2], an extension of ActivityPub (the protocol made popular by Mastodon) - tang…

    And to go one step further, for achieving a profile-per-firefox-window workflow, I suggest to have a look at the underrated extension Sticky Window Containers [0] While far from be…

    How did you disable adaptive thinking for your experiment? In the documentation of claude code [0] it says: > Opus 4.7 always uses adaptive reasoning. The fixed thinking budget mod…

    The part about permissions with settings.json [0] is laughable. Are we really supposed to list all potential variations of harmful commands? In addition to the `Bash(cat ./.env)`, …

    The webcomics is awful. It feels off, the characters look very fake, unsettling in the way they communicate. The prompt is shown bellow the image, but for me the result looks close…

    Because the strategy of changing brand after a scandal works so well, it's good to add some precision here, for those who may not know: Facebook changed its name to Meta after a hu…

    That's what I understood as well. Also, the author mentions: > The installation succeeded, but the system would panic during boot. *Bhyve is more of a niche thing and not among the…

    The author wrote another blog post "Geoblocking the UK with Debian & Nginx"[0]. It's a short tutorial to do exactly as the title says, so it looks like the author did apply this co…

    With aider and Gemini Pro 2.5 at least I constantly have to fight against it to keep it focused on a small task. It keeps editing other parts of the file, doing small "improvements…

    Regarding A, I found this blogpost from 2020 interesting to get some sense of scale : https://drewdevault.com/2020/03/18/Reckless-limitless-scope.... As for C, the "suitable" subse…

    In the desktop-centric organization, many people also have 1 app per workspace most of the time (I think). In a tiling WM, the app will take the full screen estate if it's alone th…

    I also think the taskbar showing only icons is confusing when we have the same app opened multiple time. I have a similar organization as you for work: a Firefox window on desktop …

    Interesting opinion. I think it would be so much less confusing to have only one menu. The easiest for power-users and newcomers alike would be to put on the top of this unique rig…

    Yes, sure. Although if multiple files or folders are selected, it's probably easier to just press the Escape key once instead of searching for each selected objects in the folder t…
