TIL that the `which` command has a flag, `-a`, which shows all possible places from which a command might be found, e.g., $ which -a python /opt/homebrew/opt/python3/libexec/bin/python /usr/local/bin/python /Users/willf/.local/bin/python

The Goose team has been doing an incredible job building out its capabilities and smoothing the rough edges. @angiejones.tech and team have done a great job in the last month or so in bolstering the docs for both beginner and advanced users as well as providing great video content.

There is discipline in selling or giving away your gadgets while they still have value but you aren’t using them. I lack this discipline and end up with lots of unusable gadgets.

Been hearing a lot about recency bias lately. Must be pretty important

Took me longer than I would have liked to give FastMCP a try but from start to finish it took me about 30m to implement, test and leverage my implementation inside of Goose. Most of the time was spent futzing with my own dependencies. This was a really eye opening experience end-to-end.

it's been a rough week so i thought i'd rotate a gyro for everyone. as a treat

We're working on our schema management story and someone just came up with the most cursed way to describe how we might aggregate our various schema types... Schema Lake

I just used the phrase "i'll look through my rolodex" and realized that the other person had literally no idea what I was talking about. I never had one personally but remember flipping though these as a fidget whenever I was talking to someone with one on their desk. Anybody else remember these?

It makes me really really sad when I’m leaving a public restroom and realize my shoe has been untied.

Had a great afternoon there with the kids this weekend. Libraries are awesome!!!

Is it time for a new profile pic? 🤔

While discussing the merits of various IDEs for Python our new grad dropped this and forever won my heart

So I got stopped by a TSA agent in Logan yesterday while I was walking out 😂 TSA: excuse me are you Chris Williams? Me: (Nervously) ..yes? TSA: I thought I recognized you! I've been learning from your channel for years & I'm starting my first NOC engineer position in January! Congrats Cedrick!!

It’s never a bad idea to invest in stocks

What are the most popular Kubernetes configuration linting tools and what do they do? Which ones are configured using JSON / YAML and which ones use DSLs such as Rego? Do you know of some good tools that I didn't include? itnext.io/kubernetes-c... #kubernetes #infrastructureascode #policyascode

Here's a FastMCP server that lets Claude see your desktop. This is the *entire* server. > fastmcp install examples/screenshot.py

Very excited to try this out! A missing piece for me with LLMs has been how to easily connect my world to it. This seems to fit the bill and Claude has been my favorite for most activities.

So MCP servers are really cool for giving your LLMs superpowers... but also pretty complex to build and debug. I created FastMCP to make it easy. Let me know what you think! github.com/jlowin/fastmcp

I know it could be me, but I really would so much like "the curl-er's guide to #atproto". I get the atproto docs reasonably but still unclear as heck what xrpc calls to start from, if say I want to sync a PDS.

Sup.

We all know those people who seem to have the best ideas or the best taste, combined with the ability to make real stuff. We need more of these of people. We also need more people who raise the tide. Those who make everyone around them better.

but did we reduce the toil along the way???

By popular request, here's how to add Bluesky replies as your blog's comment section! This requires some technical know-how for now, but I'm hoping that we see some no-code solutions for this pop up soon, like Ghost or Wordpress plugins. emilyliu.me/blog/comments

I was excited to see some old friends on here… Even more exciting is getting introduced to some new smart folks to follow. Thanks @savannah.dev!

the doom comes automatically with social networking

This is all the Go code needed to subscribe to the firehose of all Bluesky events (likes, posts, follows, ...). Completely free and doesn't even require any auth.

UCSB Physics 3 Final, the last in the Physics track that I needed to graduate. Studied so so hard. Got to the test and the questions felt second nature. I was in my flow. Finished 1st. Felt so good to “nail” it and be done with finals. Got a 26% and went from B->D. Still got the credits. 😅

It's like watching the ball drop on New Year's Eve

This week I am listening to KAS:ST youtube.com/watch?v=QsIr...

One of the greatest skills is knowing how to nerd snipe the right people at just the right time... It's a game changer when someone has the curiosity, capability, and capacity to build the thing that needs building.

@lookitup.baby continues to be a genius

This reminds me of GPTScript by @ibuildthe.cloud github.com/gptscript-ai... Also interesting that the rewrote Fabric in Go from Python…

New followers huh?

Major kudos to the blue sky folks for how their arch handled this explosive growth (yes even tho they had downtime today) and I love how open they are when things are having issues. It makes the SRE nerd in me v happy.

It’s happening…
