Between 2026-04-22 and 2026-04-29 there were 87 New Steam games released with Native Linux builds. For reference, during the same time, there were 765 games released for Windows on Steam, so the Linux versions represent about 11.4 % of total released titles. There’s a lot of games but of varying quality. Out of those I picked up Legionbound, another idle battler with a ton of options and combinations to try out, which is very addictive. Her..

Pictured above is the new DeskPi Super4C installed in an 8U mini rack. The Super4C is a 4-node Raspberry Pi CM5 cluster board that solves two pain points I had with the older Super6C . I was testing this board around the same time I helped kick off the SBCC 2026 , the Single Board Cluster Competition for students. A dozen or so university teams squared off to run the best mini HPC cluster with a budget of $6,000, and a couple days to ..

In the 2000s, the hottest move in software was offshoring. You'd ship your requirements to a development shop in India, Vietnam, or Bangladesh, pay a fraction of Western developer rates, and wait. The cost savings were real, every spreadsheet said so. The failure modes were also real, every CTO said so. Even assuming that the teams working on your code were smart, motivated, and hardworking, the distance, communication overhead, the time z....

AWS Bedrock: Building AI Applications with Foundation Models

Bedrock is AWS finally getting AI right. I don’t say that lightly. I’ve watched AWS stumble through SageMaker’s complexity, watched teams burn months trying to self-host open-source models on EC2, and watched startups hemorrhage money on OpenAI API calls with zero fallback plan. Bedrock cuts through all of that. You pick a foundation model, call an API, and you’re building. No infrastructure. No GPU capacity planning. No model weight manage..

This month’s list combines the least interesting aspects of fan fiction, fantasy football, and Sudoku. Then multiplies the stupidity by a hundred. Which demonstrates that I am human. Give us an instinctive behavior and we will complicate and pervert it. Moving our bodies. Making objects digestible. Marking our surroundings. Procreation. Clothing. Domiciles. Travel. Creating and listening to sounds. What justifies this exercise is that i....

I wrote a simple script that translates text at the command line, completely offline. Here’s an example of how it works on my computer: echo '¿Cómo estás?' | translate # => How are you? It combines a few tools: TranslateGemma , a special-purpose language model for translation Ollama , a tool for running language models locally Efficient Language Detector , a library that detects the language for a piece of text Here’s....

I've been building a library and a framework in parallel, and the same design constraint keeps showing up in both: every piece of software now has two audiences, humans and agents. Here's what that changes — for libraries, and for frameworks.

Exactly ten years ago, I gave a talk at the SF JavaScript meetup titled 5 Kung Fu Moves for Front-End Heroes . A full decade later, I found myself wondering: are these techniques still the secret sauce for modern front-end engineering, or have they been rendered obsolete by time?

I’ve been working on transitioning this site over to a static generator and I’ve also been working on a new site design. What I decided to do is sort of a cross between the two: my current site will be converted into a static version of what stands today, design and all. It’ll be an archive of what was essentially the “tips, tricks, and bookmarks on web development” that the site was for much of its existence. I’ve created that static ver....

Weird fact about me: I’m cross-dominant (also known as being mixed-handed). Instead of having a dominant hand I use everything with, my hands are… Awkward. There are some tasks which my left hand excels at, and some tasks which my right hand excels at. And I can’t know until I try it. Oh so you’re ambidextrous? This is the question I’m asked every time I bring it up, but no. Ambidextrous people have (mostly) equal ability with both ha....

On September 8th, in Hollywood, D4vd’s Tesla was towed to a pound after being abandoned. Shortly after, yard employees began noticing an unbearable smell coming from the front of the vehicle, where the trunk is […] The post The Disturbing Links Between Celeste Rivas’ Death and D4vd’s “Romantic Homicide” Video first appea..

Linux on PlayStation 5. The ps5-linux project enables the installation of a Linux distribution on the original PlayStation 5 (the physically larger model). The installation isn’t easy. On the other hand, since it isn’t persistent (you need to run the exploit on every reboot), there’s no risk of “bricking” the console. OpenClaw suffers from waves […]
