Today
smassh is the coolest monkeytype tui clone, its impressively accurate. Easy to install and run, all the same themes appear to be there and everything. maybe a good way to get a few reps in while agents are running these days.
I need to go back and brush up on my skills I'm down a good 20wpm from what I should be doing.

Yesterday
I've been thinking about this for awhile and Daniel makes some great arguments here. Interestingly keeping inference cheap removes the incentives to make our tools better, help us choose the right model, lean on local models, open weight models. The frontier models are so affordable through subsidized subscription models why would you deal with anything less intelligent at this point. The tooling we use is not optimized for it, and why should it be.

emacs config so bad he launch obsidian, YIKES! grantid I'm using obsidian currently on my phone, not for this post, but for journal entries while I'm away from my desk. Use this as a reminder that you can swim through murky waters with your dotfiles for awhile, but occasionally its good to do a clean up, pin it, put em in a docker image, have a good fallback to go to if shit really hits the fan. Iv'e been using https://github.com/waylonwalker/nvim-manager as part of my strategy for awhile now.

2026, finding the balance between fixed bugs and zero days. There is very unlikely ever a reason you need to be running bleeding edge packages in prod most package managers now support cool downs.

webdev twitter is blowing up with implementations of pretext text calculations. The examples are absolutely fun and ridiculous.

The claude code source code leaked today and the tweets are great, maybe twitter is back.
Did you know you can replace the spinning verbs in Claude Code. I'm having fun with it.
