Normally I'd just reboot to fix any intermittent issues on Ubuntu like sound, printing, bluetooth, etc. Lately, I've sicking Claude on it and end up finding some wild root causes. Chrome was refusing to open and it was determined to be Discord leaking X11 connections. Neat!

Does anyone actually use OSS ML Ops platforms in production? Something like TensorZero looks interesting unsure if it raises the bar for evals or the like more than just the provider logs themselves

Design.md, Agents.md, Skills.md, Soul.md ... obligatory XKCD

Had an old gaming laptop lying around and managed to get @oxide.computer's platform booted up on it

jj is super powerful if you need it, but tbh I think the pitch is even stronger for non-power users. In 6 months of regular use I've never needed to consult the Deep Tomes to unfuck a repo, and the only time I ended up remotely off the happy path it was a limitation of the underlying VCS, not jj

if the presence of hype makes you completely unable to think about reality independent of the hype, that is not resisting hype, it is surrendering to it totally

It's not you, cloudflare, npm, firebase, and google cloud are all having issues. If you are affected, go touch grass. There's nothing you can do about it.

Also seeing issues in us-central1

learning #rust from experienced devs

Found this tonight and it's a really solid read on the Go runtime. Definitely a long post but it's got a lot of useful info in it. Learned a lot about things that I haven't really dug into before from it. nghiant3223.github.io/2025/04/15/g...

This is *exactly* why the @cncf.io was created. A safe space for community and companies to come together with longitudinal guarantees of stability and fair ground rules. There are no backsies. @synadia.bsky.social? @derekcollison.bsky.social? This is not ok. www.cncf.io/blog/2025/04...

Incredibly interesting talk from Daniel Borkmann & Anton Protopopov on tuning WireGuard performance. They compare Userspace (wireguard-go) & Kernel implementations and hack together some truly awesome optimizations in various scenarios. youtu.be/oXhNVj80Z8A?...

i want people who get riled up about "function colors" to tell me whether they view the difference between `fn foo() -> String` and `fn foo() -> Result<String, Error>` to also be an example of problematic function coloring

Breaking News: The Onion, the satirical publication, said it won a bankruptcy auction to buy Infowars, a website run by the conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.

I really want Bluesky to succeed, but I also want to see a healthy ecosystem spring up around the AT Protocol, and that includes Bluesky alternatives. If we want to avoid a repeat of what happened with Twitter then a healthy ecosystem is a requirement.

People supporting large food/cooking influencer followings - what do you do with the leftover food that surely must accumulate after many shoots? I'm wondering if there could be a way to "book" production kitchens for people to film these videos while facilitating providing food to those in need.
