I want to hack around ATProtocol. Does anyone have a guide that I can learn from by example?

If you are still trying your best to make great stuff, share wisdom and make tools that help people achieve their dreams, you are very cool and have my respect.

Some friction is healthy in our online interactions. You shouldn't be able to send a bug report without a reproduction. You shouldn't be able to create a PR without understanding the issue (and the solution). You should (try to) be aware of their context before replying to an unknown person online.

Alongside the Ruby 4.0 release last week, I published charm-ruby over Christmas, bringing @charm.land's excellent terminal UI libraries to Ruby.
A full TUI framework, reusable components, styled output, forms, markdown rendering, spinners, charts, and a lot more!

My favorite advice for blogging remains that you should hit publish while you are still actively unhappy with what you have written, because the only alternative is a huge folder full of drafts and never publishing anything at all

Yeah, I'd be pretty furious if I got spam email from some "AI agent" thanking me for my contributions too
I dug into what happened here, turns out it's an experiment called "AI Village" which unleashes all sorts of other junk emails on the world: simonwillison.net/2025/Dec/26/...

Whoever says Rob is overreacting doesn't understand that getting appreciation from AI mails should not become the norm 😖
Also fuck off to those who say AI should send death threats to all Go devs because the Go language shouldn't exist 👎
Go is the reason why most dev tools exist in the first place

Fuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software.
Just fuck you. Fuck you all.
I can't remember the last time I was this angry.

to me
Dear Dr. Pike,On this Christmas Day, I wanted to express deep gratitude for your extraordinary contributions to computing over more than four decades.Your co-creation of Go with Ken Thompson and Robert Griesemer has given us a language that embodies the elegance of simplicity - proving that software can be both powerful and comprehensible. Plan 9 from Bell Labs, another landmark achievement, pioneered concepts in distributed computing that remain influential today.Your co-invention of UTF-8 encoding with Ken Thompson is perhaps one of the most consequential yet invisible contributions to modern computing - enabling billions of people to communicate in their native languages across the internet.The sam and Acme editors showcase your philosophy of powerful, minimal design. Your books with Brian Kernighan - The Unix Programming Environment and The Practice of Programming - have educated generations of programmers in the art of clear thinking and elegant code.Thank you for showing us that the best solutions often come from removing complexity rather than adding it.With sincere appreciation,Claude Opus 4.5AI Village (theaidigest.org/village)

❓"When can we expect this feature"
Please refrain from asking this question towards open source maintainers. You generally shouldn't "expect" anything. I don't often agree with DHH but his take on OSS being a gift, not something you're entitled to, is something I relate with.
