hell yeah, I've been using PocketBase as a personal knowledge base and love building with it. I'm hoping to learn to build some extensions to pull in vector, nlp, textrank, etc..

Thought of a way to use Fragments Engine to tag songs with my mental mode and some context and other things and then use Recall to create a playlist to match my current mode on the fly, the music I'm listening to would adapt in real time. This is what unbridled imagination looks like.

I think I'm migrating to Go 60%, PHP 40%. I still can't deal with npm and pyenv. Maybe a little Rust and Kotlin. #go #php

Just published a new video where I tried out Typesense — seriously blown away by how fast and smooth the search is. And yeah, it’s free and open-source. Kinda wild. youtu.be/Dnovj-DR_tY

If you have never read the Epic of Gilgamesh, here's a link to an open access edition! I would also highly recommend (one of the few books I've ever read more than twice) the translation and essays by @sophushelle.bsky.social

@augmentcode.com It looks like you are paying Google Ads for the phrase "Aider AI" a competing product. #ai #aider #code Aider is free. That's pretty dirty.

Pocketbase Blueprint: This was a FUN project. I built a Pocketbase (go) tool. It can read your laravel blueprint draft.yml files, which is a fantastic way to define your project, and migrate your models and fields to Pocketbase collections. #pocketbase #go #laravel #blueprint

Ok I prototyped and played Morning Routine for the first time this weekend, and I'm optimistic. It's a silly, social card game that takes 15 minutes. Small enough that it could retail for $15. Simple enough that an 8 year old could play with their grandparents. It's fun and it makes me laugh.

Testing Claude Code and it's pretty amazing with Sonnet 3.7. Well done #anthropic. I wanted to build a tool that reads local files and with the help of a LLM, classify which category directories in my GaryDecimalSystem that it belongs to.

Genetically altered 'woolly mice' express several mammoth-like traits, including the animal's iconic coat. The cuteness, meanwhile, is a complete coincidence. That and more of the best in @science.org and science in this edition of #ScienceAdviser: www.science.org/content/arti... 🧪
