A previous attempt to release a cheap Apple portable with a keyboard for education and mild computing use cases except that time they shipped it with their touch based operating system... the Newton EMate en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EMate_300 I got to play with one my dad got for cheap and it felt so cool

I've just published a first version of an Agent Skill for iOS Accessibility. I first learned about Agent Skills from a video by @avanderlee.com and he suggested someone should do one for accessibility. So I did. A few thoughts on what it is, what it isn't, in the thread. github.com/dadederk/iOS...

It's an odd feeling when I go to look for an email by search and it arrives in between when I'm looking at my inbox and when the search completes.

Petition to ban the members of congress from using nannies, spouses, or any other method of childcare on the days after daylight savings switch so they can feel the full pain of what they could easily resolve.

Idle thought: Current LLM agents are the closest construct we have to a memetic organism.

🍕 I don't usually do this but I need to be distracted from my aging joints and desires to have 5am McDonald's coffee with other seniors... There are 37 @deepdishswift.com tickets available for $37 off with the code GETOFFMYLAWN Sales ends when the birthday weekend is over 🎂 ti.to/deep-dish-sw...

Oh no... what have we done...

The new crew member asked if I needed anything. I said yes, a stick, specifically one that has never existed. They looked confused. I looked at the infinite void of space. We are both working through it.

Wait what? Oh ok

This does feel... nuts

My Claude Code every time the context window is auto-compacted:

Maybe *this* purchase will fill the void

I can’t properly explain to non-Chicago people why there is no warmer day than a 50 degree day in February. There are hotter days, but nothing else feels this warm.

Roasting coffee on this warm spring day.

Building a chat app in 2026 is funny. Real-time data delivery and state synchronization that scales from a single process to a planet-spanning cluster: easy Managing sticky scroll position in the UI: impossible

honestly there is something extremely cyberpunk about the idea of being able to message an LLM agent running off solar power over an encrypted local radio mesh network even when the rest of the power grid is down, together with the cell towers and the fiber backbones

Context repositories are our biggest innovation since sleeptime compute. Letta Code memory is now git-backed. Any number of agents can swarm over things to learn, remember, and store them in a cohesive format. Massively parallel memory management with standard conflict resolution.

This drives me batty when I see the download spinner on a photo I just took. And even moreso when it fails for whatever reason.

coding assistance lets you fast-track important projects that improve your life, such as reformatting every single site you read into the old vbulletin 3.x default template

Today, @bsky.app + @atprotocol.dev devs can plug into XMTP to give users what they've been asking for: quantum-encrypted, secure group chats that scale to millions. With our XMTPID identity model, it's finally here. 1/5

I did a very short lived test run a while back but ran out of steam. Got one or two good posts though bsky.app/profile/bork...

I'm gonna spend $100 in opus tokens to watch for a drop in my car rental price that probably won't be more than $50...

I've been enamored playing with different configurations of Claude code's experimental agent teams. You can set up a never ending development lifecycle with a product manager/architect/researcher/implementers/tester/validator team that will just churn through features. Full value tbd though.

This idea got stuck in my head and I had to get it out. airy.vision

Over the last year I've been taking on Big Chapstick by making my own. It's surprisingly easy, quite cheap, and my daughter decorates the labels with watercolor paints so each one is unique.

In the 2010s, the Icelandic tv station Channel 2 accidentally added subtitles from a gritty crime drama to an episode of Teletubbies. I have translated some of the highlights

Morning

I used claude to generate a little utility only I would want: Process a webpage in reader mode and bookletize the PDF for printing. Staple and read with my morning coffee. It's just a synthesis of other tools which seems to be AI code gen at its best. github.com/alexsikora/u...

@dens.nyc If there's a bug report screen I haven't gotten there yet as I got stuck here!

Petition to ban the members of congress from using nannies, spouses, or any other method of childcare on the days after daylight savings switch so they can feel the full pain of what they could easily resolve.

I waited in line and shared a table/Apple employee with a guy who was just genuinely excited about getting a new phone, seemingly out of the cynical sphere of devs and Apple people (me very much included), and it was really refreshing and nice. I wanna be more like that guy.

it goes further: Yu Suzuki had a oh-shit-the-boss-is-here button installed on his devkits that'd corrupt the screen and make the game look visibly "unfinished", in order to keep his boss from trying to force the game out the door ASAP shmuplations.com/afterburner/

For many years I have been posting little observations online. What you may not know is that for many years, artists have been illustrating them - for no reason other than they wanted to respond. Below is a thread of some of these beautiful drawings because they should be seen 🧵

In honor of the Andor trailer out today, I today repost my greatest online achievement: The Andor Characters as Dril Tweets series. I'm going to put them out as I get spare time over the next couple days, as I'm going to put alt text on them too. Starting with the man himself CASSIAN ANDOR

In a few years: So I was bitching memes at my friends last night [...] *nods all around*

My roommate saw me put more cheese onto a frozen pizza & it was like I unlocked something in him. I saw the wheels turning as he realized we don't have to settle for the default amount of cheese the pizza overlords offer us. What goes onto the frozen pizza is in our control. We have the power.

Just discovered swiping over from your last tab in Safari opens a new tab. Neat!

I'm not sure what this is in Sounds and Haptics (I was disabling the haptic taps for the keyboard in iOS 26) but I'm gonna turn it on and find out I guess

My desk has weird ergonomics and I don't know why. I have my monitor on an arm, an adjustable height desk, and an aeron chair but somehow still feel like I get into uncomfortable positions. It's probably my complete lack of posture

Deep Dish Swift 2025 is over but… we aren’t done yet 👀 (🔊 Sound on)

One time in college I wasn't sure what to order so I pointed at a plate someone was picking up from a counter at a local Chinese place. Owner said what it was, couldn't hear, go w/ the flow. Spiciest and most delicious noodle dish I ever had. Tried a lot over 4 years, never found it on the menu.

I found the most incredible graph on the other site
