I’m looking at the implementation and it seems like a general-purpose logging API, given the provider can be just about anything. I would want more flexibility around levels, fwiw. I’d use it if it landed (consider a +1), but no strong opinion either way.

arg parsing is broadly useful to any entrypoint fwiw

you’re not wrong, generally, but the users of paint net are artists. artists hate AI in principle. you’d really have to be checked out to not understand this about yr users… or just not care.

reading “Exploding the Phone” by Phil Lapsely which is a history of #phreaking. super interesting (and an engaging read) if you are so inclined

where I live (also WA) they do stuff like this and there’s always a big orange TRAFFIC REVISION AHEAD sign, which seems reasonable and sufficient

I see people building really cool looking TUIs and think, “wow, impressive that someone has shoehorned this into a terminal!” 25 years of macOS has spoiled me, I’m afraid

sockpuppet.org/blog/2026/08... I agree with a lot of this, which is weird given my career building CLIs (but not TUIs). can’t think of a single one that I wouldn’t rather be a native GUI 😬

🔇 🔇 🔇 My book, Deep Unlearning, is now available for preorders! I don't know how people write so many books because this one took a lot out of me. It turns out, I had a lot to say 😂, with editors cutting out 50k of my words 🫣 ✴️ You can now preorder it at www.simonandschuster.com/books/Deep-U....
Cover of my new book, Deep Unlearning: The Rise of AI and The Radicalization of a Tech Idealist. 

There are two concentric circles in the book, the left being circuits in black an white, and the right being a bunch of dots with orange accents. The cover background is cream. And the words are written in black except for "Un" which is in orange.

I have debated releasing this for several days, but have ultimately decided that I'm okay with putting it out there. I have revised it to be a bit tamer, but 🤷‍♂️ Basically: stop treating open source as if it is a private org selling a product with a guarantee of safety. jrfom.com/posts/2026/0...

There is a GitHub user (LLM?) that is reporting a lot of “security vulnerabilities” as open issues. They are mostly trash reports (e.g. “if you pass Object.prototype to the setFooOnObject function, it...

the music I thought sucked in 1996 still sucks. honestly cannot think of a single counterexample. there’s stuff I used to like which now sucks, of course. once music crosses the event horizon of sucking, it can never escape. that black hole would make me a poor music critic, I’m afraid.
