Codeberg now forbids projects with mainly LLM-written code because of “unclear copyright” and “little safeguards”
Meanwhile Huggingface is defending itself with open-weight models because Fable refused their cyber analysis prompts and kept downgrading to opus huggingface.co/blog/securit...
We watched “The Invite” yesterday and it was great. It switches between fun and tension every few minutes so it’s a non-stop rollercoaster. Today, we’ll watch The Odyssey at the IMAX. Let’s see what all the right-wing propaganda was about. Probably nothing like always
My new side project comes with rainbows and lots and lots of confetti 🎉🎉🎉
I shouldn’t have completely disassembled the gear hub but here we are. Thankfully there’s an 18 year old YouTube video that walks through the process so thank you stranger who decided 18 years ago to pick up a camera and film this. I love the internet ❤️
Others touch gras, I touch (bicycle) grease. I’m restoring a 15 something old Brompton. It’s fun! Especially puzzling the pieces back together. “Where does this piece go? Ideally we’d written it down but now it’s even more fun, right? Right?!”

Got my XTEINK X4 today. First impressions: it’s a great device but the configuration and importing of books is a bit complicated. It has only 2 preinstalled fonts and both are very large. You can’t change the font size, but have to import a new font instead. Importing books is … not easy but ok
You know you’re getting old when you buy stomach acid medicine in bulk
My next little project was to design and print a small picture frame for a note from my gf that I cherish. The note slides into the top perfectly.
I finished my first project which was to print custom holders for my audio interface. The two new blocks replace my wooden makeshift ones. I used TinkerCAD for this and gotta say that I’m super happy with it!
I recently found `npkill` which is an npm package that finds all node_modules on your system and make it easy to delete them. I just deleted 4GB of unused node_modules with it.
God damn it. The Xteink crowd got me. Seriously though, I’m rather excited about replacing doom scrolling with reading more with this
I’ve been driving an EV for 2 years now and am quite excited for what the future holds. My 5 year old Skoda Enyaq can charge 1020km/h at peak and I hope in a few years new EVs will charge this on average, giving you 1000km range charged during a lunch break.
Yep! Happened to me too. Bluesky disabled all my DMs by default. Go check yours at “Chat > Settings”
Driving through a heatwave in France at 40C is tough, especially for Bella. So, we made her bed extra comfy with a pillow, water, and a USB fan. At every stop we pour water over her fur to cool her through evaporation.
Whenever I see the Chatto account reposting a post from its owner account :P (I know it's you, Hendrik!)
All open-weight models created more noise than Opus 4.8 but so did Fable 5.
To quote one of the greatest philosophers of the 20th century, Owen Wilson:
I use LLMs to audit my code a few times a week now. Below is the prompt I use most often. It's super simple, runs in less than 30min on a medium codebase, and gives you actionable suggestions for how to improve performance, data integrity, or security in your codebase. #ElixirLang
