But the correct way to do it is to have a separate account with more privileges, and only give AI access to your standard developer account

Exactly one year on from Oniguruma's archival on GitHub and fancy-regex is in a pretty good position to act as a compatible, memory-safe alternative. Since the previous release, fa…

Bat has an option to use a built-in pager, a Rust crate called minus

This resonates with me for a couple of reasons. One is that despite a good AGENTS.md file and a detailed, specific prompt, I've seen LLM agents generate all sorts of questionable c…

I personally really enjoyed this article - thanks for sharing. I have worked for companies which use OKRs to help decide what they want to achieve, but it was never clear to me how…

The syntax highlighting on the code snippet is highly misleading...

I really like how clear and well laid out these rules are. It covers lots of things that I have always thought about when I write instructions in README files etc, so it's very nic…

I tried this out, and nothing happened. Then I discovered that it has to be enabled first, for example by: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/34251/152147 Thanks for sharing, learnt …
