"they just no drivers for anything modern..."

I need to drink either more coffee in the mornings...

Hey now, there's still BSDs....they just no drivers for anything modern....

I remember a SMBC comic where a character talks about how studying classics won't get you a job or have material benefit. It's an escape from the world where you can listen in and take part in a conversation thousands of years old.

The only solution

I'm honestly surprised by your bad luck with ISPs. Up here we basically have two to choose from, so it's rare to get a good deal. I had always heard down south you get faster for less

Exact opposite experience of me this week.

Was told my plan was no longer being offered so they bumped me up to 2G for and cut my bill by $10 a month.

That's beautiful!

Great now I'm feeling nostalgic for comic book and Star Trek fan site web rings

Geocities was so much fun back in the day

I would trust my family with something built by Skynet before I would trust them with something from him.

I've been working with it to act as a tutor while I break my work into smaller chunks.

Each time I complete a task I have it do a code review, make me fix the mistakes, complete a test on what was wrong, and write a blog post of what I did before letting me go onto the next chunk

Keeps me focused!

That's really cool!
I read your blog post and can see how your experience would be invaluable in deploying agents
January 27, 2026 at 9:12 PM
This is pretty impressive! It's amazing what agents can do now. I wonder what experience the software engineer had when setting up this project and managing the agents?
Were they familiar with browser development?
Experienced in other areas?
A pure vibe coder?

Isn't that where I dress my cat up as Pontifex Maximus and claim to be following the divine commands of the CatLick Church?

Neat! Been looking forward to this one.

Since your last post, I've been using Claude as a tutor and code reviewer to great results, but I've been curious how you guys use it into real world workflows where production is the focus over pure education. Can't wait to read it!

LLMs are like drugs? That explains all of the hallucinations...

My garage door opener requires an embedded signal from the button inside the garage for "security." The button that you have to get past the door to access

It's pretty obvious that they're trying to prevent people from using an Pi and instead buy their subscribers.

How about getting the inaugural FIFA Computer Science award?

I actually finished reading it last week. Loved it!

The way it describes the frustration, challenge, and feeling of overcoming a problem is incredibly inspiring

The way the teams build comradery as they work to complete the project & take pride in its success reminds me of my time on a paving crew
January 8, 2026 at 1:26 AM
That's true.
It's also not much different that the old trick of following different tutorials to do the same project different ways and contrasting them.

Can also be fun to use it to build something and see how I can break it.
