Continuing on the Bending Emacs series, today I share a new episode. Bending Emacs Episode 03: Git clone (the lazy way) In this video, I show my latest iteration on an expedited git clone flow. If this topic sounds familiar, I covered it back in 2020 with my clone git repo from clipboard post. My git clone flow consists of copying a git repo URL to the clipboard and subsequently invoking M-x dwim-shell-commands-git....


That “Big Beautiful Bill” (which I dislike the name - I’m not a fan of big bills, and the name is indicative of Trump’s limited vocabulary) that was passed earlier this year means that the overtime my wife earns isn’t going to be taxed this year.

A newsletter discussing AI, Knowledge Work, Knowledge Management Systems, Zen Productivity, Personal Organization, and everything in between!

Today’s businesses face a tremendous amount of complexity in tools, data silos, and systems that teams need to navigate to deliver unique and engaging experiences to their customers. Meanwhile developers are only able to spend a fraction of their time coding due to the cognitive load of technology complexity, constant context switching, and figuring out how to adopt AI effectively into their daily work. The Heroku AI PaaS is the Cloud Nat....

When generating code with an LLM, sometimes a task is so laborious to specify that you may as well do it manually. But, sometimes, you can find just the right information to cinch together to enable the model to do the work. Here’s an example. At Notion, I had built some UI for a new feature. Ken, my designer colleague, reviewed the working software and updated his Figma mocks with some refinements he wanted. I needed to implement those r....

Cosmos, the book by Carl Sagan, does something remarkable. It starts in a distant part of the universe. It does a slow zoom, through desolate space, through groups of galaxies, through the Milky Way, through a remote arm of the Milky Way, through the solar system, past the most distant plants, finally into Earth. It shows us as a tiny note of dust in an obscure part of the universe. Then, it moves to one of the early civilizations, in Ale..

In 2004, a portion of an IRC log was submitted to Bash, a website which records humorous or odd IM or IRC conversations. In it, a user by the name of AzureDiamond was tricked into giving away his password, which was hunter2. The exact date of upload is unknown, but

Yesterday evening I made a start on a small refactor to the backend API handling of scopes. It should ultimately result in fine grained access tokens that make a lot more sense than they currently do. Trying to get my head back into typescript after several weeks of quite intense bash and dockerfiles. #

There’s less variation this year with the base iPhone 17 and Pro models sharing a display. The Plus model is gone but we get a new iPhone Air. Here’s what you need to know about the iPhone 17 models. The New Models in a Nutshell There’s no iPhone 17 Plus model this year. Instead the iPhone 17 gets the same 6.3" display as the iPhone 17 Pro. The Pro Max keeps the 6.9" display from last year. Finally, we have the new iPhone Air with a 6.5" ....

Foreword : Please note this falls firmly into "nitpick" territory rather than shining light onto any sort of major issue. I just thought it was an interesting gotcha and wanted to share. TL;DR : To fully implement the PSR-16 specification as defined, an implementation MUST be contravariant of the defined interface in its accepted parameters when implementing v2 or later. I work on an application with a proprietary caching layer. Recent....

I want to dispel the misconception that using an Android phone means living within Google’s panopticon of data collection and advertising. This is very not true! For the past 8+ years I have used an Android phone without any direct relationship with Google or any of their services (e.g. the Play store). My phone’s (and tablet’s) operating system, and now the apps, all come from elsewhere. I also want to show that this arrangement is high..





I'm a huuuge fan of analog video, but the only solution I know to enjoy it is through CRT screens. Very nostalgic and fascinating in general, but I'm always concerned when it comes to point a particle accelerator right in front of my face to blow my eyes. I know about some car screens and dash cam screns that are flat, TFT-based that are analog, but I don't know much about them. Is there any good solution to enjoy analog video with no..

Cuando hablamos de Linux en el escritorio a todos nos vienen a la mente nombres como GNOME o KDE. Estos dos escritorios son probablemente los más populares e implementan mucha tecnología de forma interna. Otros escritorios menos populares pero también relativamente conocidos podrían ser XFCE, MATE, Cinnamon, LXDE, LXQt. Sin embargo, en este post vamos a descubrir algunos escritorios y window managers menos conocidos. Diferencia entre escri....
