If OpenCode can do it, then Anthropic can do it.

I think I will use vim-classic and possibly contribute to it. Not because of AI, but because I actually want to use Vim over say something like Neovim* and I actually like vimscrip…

I see this contradiction all the time. Windows is a mess but there are lots of examples of rock solid, performant applications that have been developed and maintained over decades.…

If I install Ubuntu 25.10, I can't get camera effects (blurred background and so on) to work in Meet because hardware compositing (or something, I'm not entirely clear on the detai…

Ratpoison was always my favourite tiling window manager. There's also a fork called sdorfehs[0] which seems to still be maintained and has a bunch of minor improvements here and th…

There's edamagit[0] for vscode, it's pretty good! I've been using it for a couple of weeks now and haven't needed to touch git via the terminal. 0. https://marketplace.visualstudio…

I created a Node.js binding for sd-notify to cover at least some of the use case here: https://github.com/systemd/node-sd-notify

Nice, it works well!

Thanks! This is exactly it. Previously I spent way too long searching for this.

Slightly off-topic, but a little while back someone shared an article with a screenshot of a lot of famous developers desktops including Kernighan, Ritchie, Pike, Rasmus Lerdorf an…

Fails to mention my favourite text editor, Sublime Text which has an optional Vim mode built in (Vintage). I personally am using NeoVintageous[0] which allows you to run various ex…

I distinctly remember walking around the area where Notre Dame is in Paris and hearing a faint sound I recognised on the breeze. The closer I got the more it gave me chills. The so…

Probably submitting this too early because it's not really polished, but thought I'd just raise it because it feels like there is some potential in the REPL space for even quicker …

I have a 3770 Ivy Bridge (a refurb'd HP Elite 8300 with SSD upgrade and 32GM RAM). Genuinely for the work I've done with it, C/C++, Rust, JS and Python, which I'd consider that hea…

I have some CI pipelines failing due to failing connections to archive.ubuntu.com

This seems pretty outrageous but reading their website they state: eufy records and stores videos locally when motion is detected by your device. If you subscribe to our cloud stor…

Definitely up there with one of the greatest scenes for sure. As the article states the impact of the scene is only magnified by real world events at the time, but it's also timele…

Very nice! I'm a fan of OpenBSD and pledge(). I've had some success on Linux with libseccomp[0] which means you don't have to deal with BPF directly, but pledge() is obviously much…

I was exploring the actual implementation[0] of a capabilities feature in Nodejs and was utilising seccomp (via libseccomp) on Linux at least to achieve a greater degree of securit…

Does anyone know if this kind of connector works with a PCIe to M.2 adapter? i.e. I have a PCIe card with an NVMe drive connected, could this be used? My motherboard doesn't have a…

Beware of this one. There's basic formatting errors, assumptions made about the distribution, packages available and the shell. The site seems geared towards beginners, so some of …
