I installed #iOS27. Running really solid right now, although it has pushed my storage to the brink. For a 128GB iPhone, the fact that iOS is currently occupying 66GB is criminal... #wwdc26

Quick tip: @zed.dev lets you use Ollama for tab-completion, so I use the `qwen2.5-coder:3b` model. If I had a machine with more memory, I might use a bigger model, but this one is reasonable and provides such a low-latency edit prediction experience that I love it. No server reliance here!

The Zed code editor main window with a file open, with the word interface typed in and greyed-out completion text following it.

Did you hear that? It’s the sound of millions of wallpapers changing to photos of the moon.

Amber’s looking for her present

Well, I made a landing page. I'm liking this idea more and more. Users who want to "own their own PDS" but not actually run the server can pick my provider, and if my provider doesn't work for them, it should be easy to migrate to another service provider. #atproto

A website with the title "Own your Bluesky data" and subheader "with a Bluesky Personal Data Server".

Describes the service as follows: "AT PDS is a managed Bluesky PDS solution that gives you ownership, monitoring, and management of a PDS. Create it for yourself, for a collective, or for an organization."

Below, there's a getting started button and a learn more button.

I have an irrational amount of pride in the fact that I’ve never once downloaded TikTok.
