With some heavy assistance of AI, I've spent the week closing every open issue I had against public repos I maintain in GitHub, and had a few ideas of my own along the way. Will post a few updates in the coming days about the resultant changes to some of my #PowerShell modules.

I don't know if I mentioned this previously, but I've also added a Show-XKCDExplanation cmdlet to pull the explanation of a specified comic from the explainxkcd.com wiki. Optionally you can also pull the transcript and explanation sections.

Done! Version 1.8.1 now adds html and html_img properties. The former in a hyperlinked image, the latter just the img HTML. Includes the alt text and title in the image properties.

My XKCD #PowerShell module can now render comics directly in the VSCode terminal on MacOS and Linux (as long as you have enabled the terminal.integrated.enableImages setting). Also supports iTerm2 and Kitty protocol terminals. github.com/markwragg/Po...

When you spend 10 minutes talking to a recruitment AI chat bot about your career, hopes and dreams only to be sent to this page 🤨

I imagine the Anthropic engineers are currently staring at this

I don't need a lot of resources. I'd be fine with something like the tiny planet from Rick and Morty

Claude's status page doesn't tell a very happy story of the reliability of it as a service in general. Maybe it should ask it self how to achieve 5 9's.

My #XKCD #PowerShell module now includes a Show-XKCD cmdlet that will display the comic directly in the terminal, where Sixel is supported (e.g Windows Terminal, iTerm, Kitty). You can also use Get-XKCD -Show. Download version 1.5.0 or newer to check it out: www.powershellgallery.com/packages/XKC...
