With tutorials, I’ve been enjoying handing my agent a directory of screenshots, talking out the process, then having it organize it all into a guide. Huge fan of Diataxis over the …

C4[1]? Hadn’t heard of it until now. Thanks! Really curious what the major differences are that have you preferring it over other methods / winging it. [1]: https://c4model.com/

Slax brings back fond memories! I used to boot school computers into it to have access to OpenOffice, Firefox, ahem Ophcrack… I never ran Slackware Linux beyond that but the simpli…

FortNine made a really great video about the Motocompacto last year! https://youtu.be/WQAe7EtVi-4 He opens with an entertaining sketch then digs into some of the history around the…

You just need an LLM agent that moves files around pointlessly, renames methods every so often without changing logic, bumps the year in your license. /s On a more serious note, yo…

I was obsessed with the idea of music production as an engine within a game a long time ago. It was just something I came across in passing when I read about how Elder Scrolls Onli…

What’s the best screen size for reading manga on an eInk display? I’ve always had issues with the entry level Kindles cutting things off or requiring scrolling to get the bottom se…

I think until we solve the knowledge supplementation problem (i.e., libraries providing extensive examples and LLMs being capable of ingesting, referencing, and incorporating it qu…

I just don't think that's true. This seems like a really pessimistic take. Is it truly "globalist world domination" — implying that our corporate overlords want us to live like thi…

> Honey, I think we’re ready for the next step in our relationship. Let’s exchange (GPG) keys! I just need to see two forms of identification before I sign. ;)

I used to use qemu-user-static to run ARM Linux distros like Buildroot, Yocto, and Raspbian on x88_64. It worked surprisingly well! Outside of some minor bugs here and there, it wa…

NileRed has a humorous YouTube video where he bakes cookies using only NIST reference ingredients. It costs something like $2000 to bake a single cookie and has all the flavor of c…

Yes! I’ve used Etymotic Research’s concert/motorcycle earplugs for a few years now but there are a few others on the market for mild noise reduction. It’s roughly a 10 dB reduction…

I’m not familiar with these authors. Could you elaborate more for the folks who aren’t as deep in this space?

Sorbet[1] is currently the most robust tooling available. It has a few rough edges and limitations but it otherwise works great for 90% of use cases. [1]: https://sorbet.org

I did the same and learned a ton about their runtime! In my case, I did similar and also had a go (pun intended) at shipping a single-binary Docker image (using the scratch base im…

The best solution I've found for local testing is the Lambda Runtime Interface Emulator (RIE)[1]. It's basically a little Go wrapper[2] that runs your handler and makes it callable…

I definitely wish this install method had a good guide. Having figured it out myself and installed Sid in the past, it really makes for a nice rolling-release distribution experien…

I think it's more up to a person's accepted risk and the nature of their business concept. One thing mentioned in the linked article is the advice that you use an existing entity i…

I've found my past cofounders at hackathons like Startup Weekend and in general, around tech events and meetups focused around startups and entrepreneurship. From there, we worked …

Meetups! They're great and everyone is super welcoming. Depending on your city, there should be a few tech events happening. Use that as a launching pad to branch into areas outsid…

> All I want to know is who is the target audience for this? I imagine these pages are intended for someone who's interested in Go but wants to know more. I know plenty of people w…

There's also Buildroot which has a bit of a learning curve (it's still easier than Yocto/Angstrom IMO) but is capable of producing highly customized, tiny embedded Linux images. At…
