Specs! A great site for hosting pretty adequate free sites, which TheTerseVerse will run on...

This is my [unattainable] dream; not to be some fancy famous developer of The AI Company, but just to be That Guy In Nebraska (and hopefully the Nebraska is optional)

Poor pitiful me. My #PDS is hosted by @roomy.space (who just hit some sort of official capacity milestone or something) and has no images. I am faceless, can ya believe? Still, at least it ain’t Discord.

Hey, wait up a second- ungenerated.io (the no-AI art site) now has feeds! Writing! Blog posts and whatnot! No, it ain’t @leaflet.pub nor #ATProto, but it is sorta protected by #anubis and hopefully a variant of Katana eventually, if ya don’t want your writing gobbled by AI. I suggest ya look!

My second-best commit yet: git commit -m 'added account adding and counted in the accounts.countAccountCountCounted function' (The accounts.countAccountCountCounted function counts the accounts counted in the current Terse server, by the way)

Now I did not even know this style could become 3d but it is amazing

🙋‍♂️ want a zero-config backup of your github repos and think @tangled.org is pretty cool? then synchub.to is for you! 👉 it's a github app that automatically syncs your public github repos to tangled ✨ let me know what you think! 🙏

I cancelled my Spotify Been going to music stores and ripping CD. A+ recommend

We heard you. We agree. In light of recent developments in physical media, GitHub is proud to announce that you can now obtain your public repo on CD-ROM. Keep it. Lend it to friends. Pass it on to your children. Your code is physically yours, forever. Until you lose it, let's be real. gh.io/cd

IRC unlocked halloy.chat/installation... Also new Firefox theme unlocked! github.com/casperstorm/...

A slightly odd thing that *says* it's a Linux tutorial but does not *seem* like one ccrma.stanford.edu/guides/plane...

WHY… NOT… EXIST? And the logo animation is cool and high abstract state machine protein-diagram stuff is cool and it’s all cool.

"AI cannot take responsibility, and we can't trust heavy users of AI to understand their code enough to fix it." @godotengine.org gets it. 👍

Man no way just googled it says “The ring toe, also known as the fourth toe, is the 4th digit of the foot.” Wow can’t believe that’s really the name

It's amazing how just a tiny change to color saturation can make things look so much better. Area felt way too gray. Now it feels warm. #gamedev #MayGame

I made my CLI tool Terse give output messages in the first person. "Error: invalid url" V "I wasn't able to parse the url you gave me" Instantly made it feel so much more human. I really love it :)

I seem to be seeing a lot of AI-generated documentation / code-education sites recently. I feel like there should be some sort of disclaimer besides the -- dashes and unformatted Markdown at the end; I want to learn from actual people, not the AI that trained off of them.

anyone I see in the gamedev sphere glazing ai gets blocked

Where does one get one of those tiny condensed rectangular wooden keyboards with really good clicky sounds, primary-colored tab key, and probably negative ergonomic value? Do you earn one by proving your nerdship, or what? I see the everywhere, and yes, they do seem to be The Best Thing

EVERYONE (yes, even you non-mathy folks, get over here NOW!) look at what I found! Anyone know what it is? That’s right! This *shakes it a bunch* is some of the most amazing sound design I’ve ever seen in any video ever! So I suggest you watch it. Or just leave and never get to see it :)

An important question anyone running a service on AT protocol should be asking is what's your strategy to advertise to communities that aren't already on the Atmosphere?

Random redraw of Summer for no reason (character from my indie series Lucid Garden) And yes, she’s a flower gworl. Dahlia to be specific. ♡ #Indieanimation ♡ #originalcharacter ♡ #oc ♡ #art ♡ #digitalart

“Wait, what was I making again?”

I just survived a near-fatal git merge incident. The terminal is dangerous!

MY GOODNESS FISHEYE VERTIGO WARP

Just removed DeepWiki from my search results! Mwahahahahaha

For all the IDE-nerds out there who like a good font and theme and still enjoy looking at their code, I've just found my new favorite font. So good. madmalik.github.io/mononoki/

A reminder to write good documentation, good comments, and good code. Help out some random person 15 years in the future have a fantastically easy time fixing your now-legacy system.

This… is… basically… #rust. (Although I love the extensive primitives; int512 is insane) My goodness even the name! Just add int512 to Rust and there ya go! (Also the Super Easy ASM Embedding, nice!) (ASMbedding)

Funny to see the “gee, we don’t have enough RAM!” problem pop up over and over again throughout computer science history.

 meanwhile, NASA in 1990:

We need some sort of sub-network thing on social media; There’re just a few big social sites, each with their own culture; but what if none agree with you, hmm? So what if you could make sub-site thingies inside a site so that plenty of people can find these networks and be isolated with in them

I love seeing artists like this on the site; helps prove it’s grown beyond being *extremely* niche, at least

A very useful tool #makeaterriblecomicday2026 #makeaterriblecomicday

I found an atom today

I don’t evaluate my tools on how well they can write poems. My tools do one thing and do it well. Well, at least the first part. So if your “tool” can write a (bad) poem if persuaded to, you have what is known as unremovable software bloat; Solution: delete all software; use vim for everything.

LOOK IM MAKING A REAL THING TRUST ME theterseverse.alwaysdata.net/posts?id=2

So Terse Devlog # forgot about the devlogs. Um. I use git now, in the terminal… Um. *panics* There are servers! The beta server is out on theterseverse.alwaysdata.net ! It’s only for test purposes, so please don’t break it! Um… Accounts! Soon! And a release, hopefully! Stay tuned! Channel -1!

NAME UPDATE This all is nice in a post header, but check my profile to get attacked by a giant H2 div, my goodness. At least on mobile.

! Is funny!

This be A Very Funny Little Thing at this timestamp

Incredible. I think anyone who thinks these models have any real intelligence or reasoning, and aren't just responding with auto-predicted tokens, needs to see shit like this.

This is quite an excellent drawing of a half-toad half-leopard; quite impressive, really.

absolutely cannot focus on what this lady is saying with the baby riding on helm's deep back there

In game dev there can be a thin line between "the AI is so bad the player trounces it every time" and "the AI plays perfectly". That's why I made my game so complicated that neither side can play perfectly at all!

This is a really good repo; it + glslify would make shaders a whole lot easier in js; I tried for way too long to set up a shader system before just giving up and using shadertoy...

A nice little helpful tip on my Git journey, courtesy of a human on StackOverflow

...I love watching talks and reading text books, but I learn the most by making things.
