I once described Mythos and then Fable as escaping the box we put them in. This would certainly fit that narrative.

> For a long time they would have global outages where the status page would list everything as green and the only reason you'd know something was wrong was the forum threads. Thei…

I created a web-of-trust forum built on ATProto. https://caterpilla.rs Probably one of the most fun projects I’ve ever worked on, and I largely attribute that to the protocol. I’m …

Yesterday I gave Claude Fable a difficult task. It then proceeded to spawn 415 agents. It got it done, but damn was it expensive.

I’m working on an open source Forgejo Frontend that exposes additional features like this, and offers a better user experience, faster large diffs, and basically fixes every little…

No doubt in my mind, a future Apple model will be the best to use for this purpose. They likely have more swift to train on than anyone else, and would benefit directly from more q…

I’ve been working on this for some time after learning about PICO-8 and its constraints to fit into the p8 cartridge limits and was looking for a challenge. So I made Picosky, a Bl…

Well said. In creative spaces they talk about “Dirty” vs “Clean”. Dirty they say lets you move fast. Clean is slow. Happen to be a startup that isn’t mission critical to someone’s …

Curious, why do you say that as if the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button isn't still on the homepage in 2026?

Same here, I now self host Forgejo and Tangled Knot + Spindle. Only use GitHub for employers at the moment, but don’t intend to put new code there going forward.

I’m actively working on a free and open source alternative Frontend for Forgejo that I self host called Joui

I’m in the process of developing an alternative Frontend for Forgejo that’s incredibly fast, and works perfectly well on Safari and Firefox. Here is a screencap of the wip mobile U…

I’ve always felt this automation shouldn’t exist at all, but should rather be selectively controlled via a hook. The hooks yarn offers out of the box for example can be used to run…

In case others are unaware, you just have to set https://yarnpkg.com/configuration/yarnrc#npmMinimalAgeGate to the value you want. It defaults to 1 day.

It’s on by default in yarn 4 too now, but pnpm was the first to market that default minimum gate. https://github.com/yarnpkg/berry/pull/7135

I tried it but see a lot of false positives. One funny thing I see it doing is deleting seemingly random comments lines, for example if a file has a comment that spans multiple lin…

The problem is that we have an ever growing and large number of constraints, and not following even a single one means the result is sloppy. I don’t see them fixing this any time s…

It’s still early days, but I already have it in a useable state so I could share more such as early screencaps. I plan on focusing primarily on these areas: - mobile experience is …

I moved most of my projects off GitHub to Forgejo and will be using Tangled too for public repositories. I don’t think people realize that if you self host Forgejo, you get 99% of …

I’m actively working on an alternative Frontend for Forgejo at the moment, completely self hostable, free, and open source. Moving everything from GitHub to Forgejo and Tangled for…

I left a similar comment elsewhere in this thread. I still remember when so many people hallucinated that we would suddenly have flying cars by 2002 at the latest. If we achieve se…

I appreciate your insights in a sea of psychosis comments. I find it strange how many people think we have achieved the likes of Y2K flying cars 20 years ago, or the dream of havin…

Not to mention how trigger happy LLMs can be when it comes to being overly verbose and adding unnecessary bits even with explicit direction not to do so.

This made it impossible for me to read, and Safari Reader was unavailable, further cementing my press of the back button.

When doing this remove write permissions on the test file, it will do a much better job of staying the course over long periods. I've been doing this for over a year now.
