Major University Open Source Lab Faces Shutdown - Techstrong IT #SuggestedRead #devopsish techstrong.it/featur...

Do I know anyone who could slap together a fairly quick/flat/simple vector art thing of a character? I have a ref, and happy to throw some $ your way for it (esp since it might eventually be used comercially) Boosts welcome!

There's a fused multiply-add operation?? I'll have to check my code for opportunities to improve accuracy.

Here I was thinking the big danger of those new autonomous tool-calling AI agents was that it would break your own local dev environment, but they can also create hallucinated issues and pull requests via MCP, burdening other developers as well.

Just tried the "one sec" app. It's so much better than Android's Digital Wellness feature because it interrupts the pattern and asks you how long you need to use the app. Digital Wellness just has a daily time limit that doesn't even hide the app while letting you increase your timer.

Obsidian is great for knowledge management and the Day Planner plugin is pretty good for task management, but I need a way to periodically announce my current task (like Super Productivity's "domina" mode). Anyone have a good Obsidian task setup with a similar feature?

The news about Brother printers going to the dark side hit me hard and left my casting irritated side-eye at my Brother multi-function printer, but apparently the evil firmware update only helps troubleshoot problems rather than blocking third-party toner.

This is just too cool. I haven't even made the time to use my Flipper Zero yet, but I want one.

Added a smear cursor to NeoVim. It's like a tiny, digital comet trailing my edits. Purely cosmetic, but it brings me joy. And sometimes, joy is productivity.

My brain: "I need to build a sophisticated date selection system for precise data extraction!" Also my brain, 35 minutes later: "Wait... I only need one year's worth of my mileage data, and I'm probably the only person who will use this tool to extract it." Tax prep is a wild ride.
