Have you ever noticed that the food graphics in Super Smash Bros. and Kirby Air Riders is flat “billboarded” stock images of food? This artistic decision from director Masahiro Sakurai has persisted through 8 games over nearly 25 years. #gaming #nintendo #smashbros sethmlarson.dev/food-jpegs-i...

What if using American cloud services becomes untenable for Europe due to deteriorating geopolitics? It's hypothetical for now, but no longer unthinkable. By @quentinsf.com: statusq.org/archives/202... Local-first software to the rescue?

so… who called it the flu and not "i aim to sneeze" 🤧🧐

sites that offer nothing but login via github sure look sillier after today...

my new "stop here" expression for python. comes with an astonished face.

very clearly laid out vision

this 3d particle simulator is really well made and inspiring!

New article on ★ daiz.moe ★ Crunchyroll is destroying its subtitles for no good reason daiz.moe/crunchyroll-... A ton of research and effort went into this one. This is the article to read to get to the bottom of Crunchyroll's subtitle changes! Replies here will show up as comments (eventually)

all these SATAN backronyms are unsurprisingly good

1. AGI 2. ??? 3. automatic theme changing in claude-code

what a magnum opus after 5 years of silence

who called it test-time inference and not thoughts & prayers?

PSA: if you’re using iTerm2 and into base16/24/tinty schemes: github.com/tinted-themi... here’s helix in tmux in iterm2 managed by nix-darwin & home-manager

wer nannte es service discovery und nicht clustertreffen?

🙇🏼 @voodootikigod.bsky.social news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1729... was also my second-best HN submission after motherfuckinglasers.com ah. i should bring them lasers back.

@thedsp.bsky.social i'm curious: have you considered using tmux sessions for command execution? could be a great way to watch and interact with commands instead of having truncated logs, getting not-a-tty errors and not being able to reply to confirmation prompts. also @naderman.de says hi!

the apple devs who named ~/Library/Application\ Support/ and ~/Library/Mobile\ Documents/ walk into a bar. there's no space and they can't escape

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by Meister Röhrich www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRIn...

might as well

@daurelio.bsky.social github.com/MatAtBread/A... it's pronounced aglio e olio

@soundcloud.dev happy to have you on bluesky! very happy to see the recent changes to the app(s) 😚🤌🏻 and i can't believe the API is back! who'd you have to f…hire to make that happen? :D ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

when i didn't have a power outlet available recently and had to conserve battery i noticed something odd: the @soundcloud.dev web app has concistently been using more energy than my other browser combined in the last 12h does it just really dislike non-blink/chrome browsers?

alles kann aber nix muss

what exactly did google cloud smoke, and why didn't anyone tell it to stop?

I've just announced my new (blazing-fast) kernel for implicit surfaces: mattkeeter.com/projects/fid... It's got something for everyone: Cool graphs! Multithreaded WebAssembly! Terrible mesh topology! JIT compilers! After three years, I'm excited to finally show it off to a wider audience 😎

one of the absolute coolest software libraries i found this year: scrtwpns.com/mixbox

how can i use iphone mirroring as a trashy european?

who called it 𝔯𝔢𝔞𝔰𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔫𝔤 and not 𝓂𝒶𝓅/𝒹ℯ𝒹𝓊𝒸ℯ

who called it black friday at the deli and not mortadella kombat

1. airpods max headband mesh is loose 2. it hurts my brain 3. ✨ 3D PRINTING ✨ 4. remove useless mesh 5. add custom 𝒷𝓇𝒶𝒾𝓃 𝒸𝓊𝓈𝒽𝒾ℴ𝓃 6. profit 1h from pain to gain

loving modelcontextprotocol.io, currently w/ claude on desktop (gief tools @zed.dev!!!11) reads from my org repo on disk performs assistant tasks like browsing changelogs w/ puppeteer, filtering & writing back to fs for me & next prompt mhm. this boi is going to write an MCP server tonight

it is indeed time to put a semicolon behind all this

“Well, it won’t take off if we don’t do the work.” 😚🤌🏻

Announcing Model Context Protocol (MCP) support in Zed! Zed Extensions can now source AI Assistant context via standardized MCP servers.

can't wait to give this a read blog.dottxt.co/say-what-you... structured generation allows for so many DARN EXCITING workflows why try to convince the LLM to follow steps if you can force it to? similar to local llama.cpp gen with grammars, but, uh, worse and more expensive, but hey! frontier

i'm having very mixed experiences with aider, especially compared to cline. there's an ever-present mismatch between my actual git repo's state and what aider thinks (probably trying to save context). must resist writing my own assistant for a few more days.

@janl.bsky.narrativ.es oh hiiiiii jan, it's so nice to have you here <3

it turns out i was overly enthusiastic (this NEVER happens ;D) regarding bsky's level of decentralization. this thread is a very recommended read for my tech followers: bsky.app/profile/dust... also, it's very funny. and do read the replies. excited to hack @atproto.com in all the wrong ways :)

@zed.dev how can i get access to /search and Other Cool Stuff™? does one have to bait you with cool PRs? ;)

I am utterly delighted by this subversive use of the Bluesky label feature, where you can subscribe to a custom app that then adds visible labels to profiles This one shows you which posh expensive private school British public figures attended, plus their current fees bsky.app/profile/dadd...

i’ve become a huge fan of @atproto.com and @bsky.app founder @jay.bsky.team after watching this interview: @atproto.com: DAG-CBOR data structures, signing, decentralized identity for normal people @bsky.app is an extremely pleasant web app experience bonus: public firehose, lulz firesky.tv
