Nothing to see here, just GitHub Copilot doing end-to-end testing of the MS-RDPEI extension in IronRDP by connecting with ironrdp-agent and sending pen 🖊️input events to draw a smiley 🙂 in paint and confirm the result with a screenshot 📷. It did all of that autonomously 👇

Found this gem my friends made of me when I was 20 years old, clowning how much I loved Robert Vieira's SQL Server books. Those Wrox books were the first that spoke to the audience like coworkers and not like robots ala Addison-Wesley. Now I love @manning.com, which is casual but accurate.

Fluffy mostlywhite long-haired cat with bright blue eyes lounges confidently in a fabric window hammock attached to the glass with four clear suction cups. One front paw dangles over the edge while the cat looks directly at the camera, with closed horizontal blinds behind it and the cozy perch creating the amusing impression of a tiny suspended throne.

Linus Torvalds, my man! *finger gun emoji*

per linus torvalds: I realize that some people really dislike AI, but this is an area where I'm willing to absolutely put my foot down as the top-level maintainer.

Linux is not one of those anti-AI projects, and if somebody has issues with that, they can do the open-source thing and fork it.

Or just walk away.

AI is a tool, just like other tools we use. And it's clearly a useful one.

It may not have been that "clearly" even just a year ago, but it's no longer in question today.

There are other questions around AI (like what the economy of it will actually look like in the end), but "is it useful" is no longer one of those questions. Anybody who doubts that clearly hasn't actually used it.

Yes, it can also be a somewhat painful tool, both for maintainer workloads and just from a "it keeps finding embarrassing bugs" standpoint.

But the solution is not to put your head in the sand and sing "La La La, I can't hear you" at the top of your voice like some people seem to do.

Having a whole lot of fun this week with Fable and Sol. Sol I'm reserving for front-end work, so I've updated @mutesky.app finally! And now I'm building a Dragon Quest-like front-end for Infocom's Wishbringer! The reimagination of the original map took my breath away 🤯

Hand-drawn fantasy map titled "Postal Zones Festeron, Anharia & Vicinity," shown with a letter and number grid overlaid. The map depicts a coastal settlement with roads, scattered buildings, a central fountain, wooded areas, fields, and a church on a rocky island connected to the mainland by a narrow bridge, with water surrounding the eastern and northern edges and a compass rose in the lower right.

Pixel art landscape viewed from behind a young traveler standing beside a loaded bicycle on a hill, holding a glowing egg and looking over a winding road through a cozy seaside village. A lighthouse rises from a rocky island at sunset on the left, while a towering dark castle beneath a swirling purple vortex dominates the distant hills on the right, creating a contrast between peaceful countryside and looming fantasy danger.

ssh is an obscure but widely-deployed command. It stands for Secure Snake Home and was made in the 90s to securely play snake online I made a massively multiplayer backend for it with support for thousands of concurrent snake players ssh snakes.run to join!

Anyone have any dashboard designs that are 1. USEFUL and 2. BEAUTIFUL? Claude said Datadog is popular but the screenshots I'm seeing on Google Images are 90s. Vercel looks more modern. If you love a dashboard AND find it useful, what do you love about it?

Oleg was right, after all. His premise was that burnout is caused primarily by a lack of progress. For years, I struggled with serious burnout, and his article rang so true for me. Now, even more so. With the kind of progress I'm making with AI, I can't remember the last time I burned out 😍

I just cant even believe this is my machine, it's from 2023 but I'm still so in love.

Windows Task Manager CPU performance view showing dozens of small graphs for each logical processor on an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X, with most cores lightly active and occasional sharp spikes, while overall CPU usage reads about 7 percent at a high clock speed, humorously implying a massively overpowered processor barely breaking a sweat.

The Floods of 2021 in Belgium and Germany killed a lot of people I but didn't realize it was close to 250. After seeing large highways being flooded, we bought high-end life vests and left them on our backseat floorboards. Just heard a man in Puget Sound died in his car; pls consider life vests too.
