Just a rumour of a bug is enough to find a security exploit these days Thinking through how the conventional OSS security embargoes no longer buy us time, and what open source maintainers might do instead to respond

How Are You? How are you? used to have an easy answer. While recovering from autistic burnout and unmasking, I’m realizing I don’t need to be ‘great.’ I want to be consistent, content, and myself.
Lost in translation: What I learned trying to speedrun subtitles with LLMs Several months ago, a good friend of mine, who knows I’m into birdwatching, suggested I watch a YouTube documentary called LISTERS: A Glimpse Into Extreme Birdwatching.

Agentic Workflow Design: Six Principles for 2026 | Amy Yuan Most 2026 agent-design advice is load-bearing on one hidden assumption: that verification is cheap. Six principles, where each one inverts, and the mental model for what still belongs to the model rather than the code.
Free intelligence is getting a lot better Pushing the frontier of intelligence for less money is exciting, but improvements in the very cheapest models could prove more transformative.
Mountains of work Before starting Niche design, I hadn’t done anything close to that. I’ve never conducted interviews. I’ve never designed a print magazine. And I surely never...

Building a mini Homelab that fits in my carry-on I'm traveling to Chicago for VCF Midwest next month. I'll be demoing NTP time history on vintage Macs, with my own GPS-derived NTP service hosted on an Xserve G5, synced via NTP or a strange AppleTalk timing extension from the 1990s. So I built a little '...
