Sounds interesting! I'll need to take a peek.

I should have listened to @przemyslaw.evotec.xyz and set up self-hosted #GitHub runners 😬

Hmm. #Codex is down for me. Suddenly my Codex app's chat windows cannot connect to the back-end API.

For my Chicagoland-based folks: DuPage Animal Friends has a fundraiser coming up at @noonwhistlebrewing.bsky.social in Lombard, IL, on October 2. This event is a ton of fun! I'll be there from 5-9 PM with the fam. Stop by, grab a drink, and support #ShelterPets! Tickets: dupageanimalfriends....

Jeez, the NeoGeo AES+ is delayed until Sept 2027?!

Thanks to Opus 5.5, Claude doesn't seem totally worthless! Only half joking - I was about to cancel my sub after being maxed out on frustration dealing with Opus 5. (Before the Claude haters or Codex lovers chime in, I use the crap out of Codex as well)

Hmm. The last two days, my #Codex #VSCode extension works for a while. But, then -- seemingly randomly -- it refuses to display anything other than a grey box.

Spent the last couple of days facilitating @westmonroe.bsky.social's Basecamp, training ~75 new college hires. Great experience—super fun seeing folks across tech, industry, and functional teams use Codex in a mini-hackathon. They built amazing stuff in just hours! #AI #Hackathon

If I installed it, it wasn't on purpose. And this is some kind of auto update that is not in my control. 🙃

You nailed it. An Intune remediation script to call DSC v3.

Want #Intune "as code" without the nightmare of JSON import/export pipelines? @danny-stutz.bsky.social & I are showing a better way at Workplace Ninjas US. We'll use DSC v3 to enforce #Win11 baselines & fix drift in real time Jan 11-13 | Scottsdale, AZ workplaceninjas.us #WPNinjasUS #WPNinjas

I'm working on that, too! Kinda. I'm building a reusable, hardened devcontainer setup

Frank Lesniak @franklesniak.com · 17/08/2026

I am not a fan of this Claude Code UI. I get that it's editing a sensitive file, but not telling me what edit is being made/proposed makes this dialog meaningless. Also, right before this, I explicitly told Claude Code to make this edit, so the redundant pause is incredibly frustrating.

Frank Lesniak @franklesniak.com · 17/08/2026

I'm trying something new: Codex is bossing Claude around. Also known as: the fox watching the henhouse. 😅

Frank Lesniak @franklesniak.com · 17/08/2026

Codex taught me a new word: mojibake en.wikipedia.org/wik... (Another example where I knew the concept, but not the word for the concept - so: thanks, AI! 😅)

Frank Lesniak @franklesniak.com · 15/08/2026

I’ll be heading to Nashville September 8–10 for the Hybrid Identity Protection Conference (#HIPConf26). The agenda and speaker lineup look excellent, and I’m especially looking forward to learning, exchanging ideas, and connecting with others in the #identity community. Who else will be there?

I'm familiar with this class of race condition/bug, but didn't know the TOCTOU term/acronym until now. 🧠

Why does AI feel the need to point out that every problem is a "real" problem? Saying something is "real" seems to be the leading AI trope of July/August 2026.

Frank Lesniak @franklesniak.com · 01/08/2026

About 70% of the room were not Tech consultants, but by the end of the class, we were all using #Codex and doing spec-driven development to build a technical solution to all of consulting-life's problems 😅 But seriously, folks in the class built some really neat things! ✌🏻

I'm honored (and seriously jazzed) to have been able to fly to Dallas this week to teach about 30 of my colleagues what I know about using AI for consulting client delivery! I genuinely love sharing knowledge and empowering others. The fact that I'm paid to do this (on occasion) is amazing.

Couldn't turn this off fast enough. Actually that's a lie; I tried to turn this off previously but I don't think it was an available notification category.

Windows Defender is flagging #Codex as malicious. "This program is dangerous and executes commands from an attacker." The ironic part is I'm working on building a devcontainer module for github.com/franklesn... -- to make it easy to sandbox coding agents. I guess I'll work from Codex on the web...

I backed into a parking space in a parking lot the other day, paid to park, and went to dinner. I came back to a ticket because apparently backing into a space is not allowed. Freaking $40 ticket. Ridic. I go to pay it, and they charge both a convenience fee AND a CC fee? Seriously, #ForestPark?
