niri has some of the best features I've seen for seamless screen sharing such as full monitor, specific window or dynamic casting.

Over the past year, I've dramatically reduced the number of scripts in my package.json files. What started as a gradual shift has become a deliberate practice: minimize abstractions, maximize clarity. This post explores why direct CLI usage beats script wrappers for transparency, flexibility, and AI-friendliness.

Herewith another small software tool that I built because I needed it, and because I couldn’t find anything that already addressed that need. ID3Minimiser minimises and simplifies the ID3 metadata found in MP3 audio files. This is the information that describes attributes like the album name, track name, genre, track number, etc. Point ID3Minimiser at … Continue reading "An MP3 Metadata Minimiser"

Reading about lambda calculus led to an interest in how concurrent processes could be explicated formally. I read Concurrent Lambda Calculus with Futures by Niehren, Schwinghammer (cool name), and Smolka. Futures seem considerably nicer than some of the synchronization primitives that I'm familiar with elsewhere. Looking further afield, I found papers and articles on describing various process calculi. Most date from the late 90s to early 2..

Photo by Aleksandr Galichkin on Unsplash In this post, inspired by a video by Tigerbeetle engineers Tobias Ziegler (@toziegler) and Alex Kladov (@matklad), I'll walk through four algorithms for merging multiple sorted runs of data; a problem that shows up in modern database internals. You will be able to use an interactive web application to explore and understand each one. The title image isn't just a pretty picture of tenni....

The most conservative way to build a career as a software developer is 1) to be practical and effective at problem solving but 2) not to treat all existing code as a black box. 1 means that as a conservative developer you should generally use PostgreSQL or MySQL (or whatever existing database), Rails or .NET (or whatever existing framework), and adapt code from Stack Overflow or LLMs. 2 means that you're curious and work over time to better....

I call my LLM agents “Oompa-Loompas”. It started as a fun way to refer to them, especially when talking to non-technical people. They normally just know “ChatGPT”, but I use Claude Code, Codex, and a bunch of others. At some point it felt weird to keep saying “ChatGPT” when that’s not even what I’m using. So I needed a term that covered all of them. Oompa-Loompas. Now I realize the metaphor goes deeper than I thought.

AI wheels coming off < Do you remember people loudly proclaiming we’ve built a sentient intelligence ? Because you should. Those people should be remembered as the first line of “intellectuals” that has fallen to the onslaught of AI propaganda. AI is a marketing term and in the last few years it has become a test, just like NFTs, testing your resilience to corporate propaganda. 'Slightly' is doing a lot of heavy lifting he..

I will be at FOSDEM 2026 this year, with a hunger for Belgian waffles and a big bag of freshly printed Landlock stickers. I am looking forward to meeting you all again there! If you are dropping by, and want to chat in person, send me a note! I am collecting links over at https://wiki.gnoack.org/FosdemTwentySix . (You might want to double check regarding a potential railway strike on the 30th.)

In reply to matlabtest. As far as I can tell, basePath (or similar property) is not supported, only name, kind, type, purpose, repeating, tuple, platform and the quite-confusing mutuallyExclusiveGroup. Perhaps there are some other undocumented properties, but I am not aware of any. The syntax is now documented in Matlab: https://www.ma..

The scale of the cheating crisis in higher education is staggering. Depending on the survey, between 60% and 92% of college students now regularly use AI for their coursework. Professors are ill-equipped, and administrators are broadly turning a blind eye to the entire situation. Treating this as wholly the fault of AI is, however, a grave mistake. The truth is that education has been broken for a long time, and AI was the accelerant ..

On January 15th 2026, Robert Jenrick broke my election site. Okay, that’s slightly hyperbolic. The site continued to operate, and it would be fairer to say that the actions of Kemi Badenoch and Robert Jenrick exposed a flaw in the data modelling in my site.

The AI train has left the station. Some of us are on board, generating entire modules from specs. Others are still on the platform debating whether the train is even real. Four smart people wrote about this shift this past week. They all agree on what it means. And I agree with them.
