www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrAo... My first video on the Tailscale YouTube channel is live! The beginning of a series on advanced subnet routing.

Tailscale + Border0. Border0 is joining Tailscale to help us build a more modern, usable approach to privileged access management. It’s already integrated with Tailscale today, and we’re excited about what comes next. tailscale.com/blog/border0...

At the risk of being a walking cliche - Wargames was transformative. Also Neuromancer, Snow Crash, Hackers, etc.

AI is the biggest blocker to AI adoption. Every time I think "I need to try out this new tool that people find very useful" I get Gemini popping up telling me to rewrite an email in the active voice, and snap back to "I want to go live in a cottage in the woods and try to forget what computers are"

Upside: a pet that picks up it's toys. Downside: it puts them in corridors and doorways

What if an LLM like interface had a real intelligence backing it? This is an amazing technological breakthrough!

Just finished the Wayfarers series by Becky Chambers. What a great set of books! I read the Monk and Robot books last year. She has a talent for characters who draw you right in.

can’t wait for the people who think there’s someone ‘truly there’ when they talk to an AI to hear about novels, fiction’s going to blow their minds

In Waterloo to represent Tailscale at Hack Canada! Hackathons are pretty inspiring, seeing a few young people really dig in to a problem is a cure for cynicism, even for a jaded GenX goat, such as myself.

Stepped outside of union station, someone blew a cloud of crack smoke in my face. I don't think it was intentional, they looked surprised that the door opened. And yet, sometimes I miss living in Toronto. 🤣

This is one of the cooler projects I've seen built on Tailscale. Very well thought out.

Why do I have to pretend that I'm going to print something in order to save it as a PDF. Why do I have to engage in a little ruse.

I'm of a mind that Tim H's is an experiment: "How cheaply can we make coffee before it's so bad that nobody will drink it". The scientists have now lost all faith in ever finding the point where people won't argue that the floor sweepings and other detritus roasted and brewed are "the best"!

My credit card has lounge access baked in, tried it for the first time today. Comfortable chairs, and bathroom stalls that have real doors. Why can't the rest of the airport just be like this? The coffee in here is even worse than Starbucks though, which takes real effort. Might be worse than Tim H!

A lap cat with a paw over her eyes is the most adorable, but I've got a train to catch

The internet started going downhill when we removed the under construction gifs.

Red Tape has been an integral part of the Canadian identity since at least 1965, when it was incorporated into the design of the national flag (twice)

I feel that people should be required to take at least a first year humanities course before being allowed to touch a computer in any professional manner. This is so ethically abhorrent that I would never feel safe in the room with whoever greenlit this patent application.

I see you have a cable pouch on this cluttered workbench. That looks like a cozy spot to sit.

I made a tool that turns PCB designs into 3D-printable molds. you sandwich copper tape between the parts, sand the ridges, and you have a real working PCB. no etching, no chemicals. I am losing my mind castpixel.itch.io/pcb-forge

I'm going to be hosting a webinar tomorrow to talk about the fancy new features that Tailscale is dropping this week! tailscale.com/events-webin... You can register there, and watch on Zoom or YouTube. There will be a Q&A at the end if you want to play Stump the Nerd as well.

I'm hosting a live webinar next Thursday with Adrian Dewhurst to talk about new Tailscale features which are dropping next week. You can register here, if you're the kind of nerd who is in to that sort of thing tailscale.com/events-webin...

At the theatre tonight. Watching people make art is a revolutionary act. Watching them have so much fun doing it is good for the soul.

When I actually have to compile something on the pi

5 jobs you've had: IT person Web Developer Vegetable Farmer Coffee Shop Owner House Inspector

Never mind the jobs you had, tell me five classes you took at uni: 1: Complexity 2: Organic and Biochemistry 3: Ecology 4: Theories of the State 5: Qualitative research methodology

This is better than the dishwasher video. There are few people I can listen to for an hour and a half and be engaged the whole way.

Aysanabee's album "Edge of the Earth" is nominated for the Alternative Album of the Year at the Junos. He's also up for Contemporary Indigenous Artist or Group of the Year. Everybody in Thunder Bay is really happy for him.

Has anyone removed proximity keys from a Ford and replaced them with a regular key? The convenience of leaving it in my pocket is not worth the inconvenience of it costing $500 to replace a lost one.

is that good

This is the wildest story I've heard in a while.

Moved Immich from tsdproxy to a ScaleTail template today. ScaleTail is a pretty amazing resource if you self-host anything - Docker Compose templates that have Tailscale, tailscale serve, and TLS certificates all built in. github.com/tailscale-de...

Today's toy: atlogin, an OIDC provider for the AT network, compatible with Tailscale custom OIDC. Try this: login.tailscale.com and login as user "<your-bsky-handle-without-the-@>@at.apenwarr.ca". You'll join my test tailnet (ACL isolated from other users). Source: github.com/apenwarr/atlogin

I've been hanging out at DeltaHacks at McMaster University. So much energy, creativity, and passion happening at this hackathon! I've already volunteered to be sent to any other hackathons that we sponsor.

I like getting presliced cheese so that I can have a quick snack while deciding what to have for a slightly less quick snack.

TikTok is cooked. My interests are making, camping, computer stuff, and I was pretty well tuned. Suddenly it all shifted to criticism of US immigrants and commentary about that blogger Charlie who died recently. I keep saying "not interested, don't show these hashtags", but it's still 50% of my feed
