On August 25, 1991, the Linux kernel was given to the world as a FOSS gift by a young Linus Torvalds. He is the real hero who released the Linux kernel 35 years ago for all of us w/ GNU as userland tools, GCC C/C++ and more. The rest is history. Long live Linux! www.cs.cmu.edu/~awb/linux.h...

I continue to get a chuckle about the fact that the IT industry always needs to reinvent concepts that have existed pretty much forever. Was recently watching some content about AI agent memory, and it discusses at length its evolution from: 1/6

Trying to build a go application that syncs data from an oracle database to a cmdb via vibe coding today. Most time I'm only waiting for the AI to finish work. Watching it at least gives breaks to drink beer … Is it faster? By no means. I'd have hacked that down in half of the time.

From top AI coding user globally to completely stop using it because it's so much harder to review AI code than write it myself. And they say all software developers jobs will be replaced by LLM. Life comes fast at you. 🤣
A two-part X (Twitter) post by Hunter Leath, showing the "life comes fast at you" concept through his use of AI coding assistants like Devin or Claude. The top, more recent post says: "an interesting update: the team is starting to move away from AI coding completely (devin/claude/etc) because it's so much harder to review the AI code than writing things themselves". The bottom, older quoted post says: "just found out that since this, i've become a top 50 user of Devin globally, now pushing ~60 PRs a day. AMA."

Lately I discovered Ghostty and I begin to find that really nice. If you're on macOS, it's worth a try. It's not perfect yet, but already has some advantages over Terminal.app. ghostty.org
