Some people say macOS is the better development environment, while others prefer Windows.

Honestly, I just SSH into a Linux box from VS Code, or one of its many derivatives, and do all my development there. Whether it’s macOS or Windows, just use the one you’re most comfortable with.

🌎 Let's take a look back at when Cyclone Errol was heading towards the coast of Western Australia on 16 April.

In this @copernicusecmwf.bsky.social Sentinel-3 image, the typical pinhole eye – a small, well-defined eye often associated tropical cyclones – is clearly visible.

Google's new approach to time-series forecasting

Google introduces a novel approach that transforms TimesFM into a few-shot learner.

This method uses continued pre-training to teach the model how to learn from a handful of examples at inference time.

The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope and #ESAGaia join forces to revisit the fate of our galaxy.

Doubt is cast on the long-held prediction that the Milky Way galaxy will collide with the Andromeda galaxy in about 4.5 billion years.

Agent mode in @code can now Just Do Things™.

Settings > Chat > Tools : Auto Approve

No more clicking "Continue" for terminal access and MCP tool approval. We recommend using a dev container when doing this to isolate your env - just in case.

Finally watched @felixkjellberg.bsky.social "I installed Linux" video.

Don't know what I was expecting... but *wasn't* expecting a great list of reasons why, in 2025, you should stop using Windows and install Linux—he even mentions how to use systemd-analyze!

The Llama 4 model that won in LM Arena is different than the released version. I have been comparing the answers from Arena to the released model. They aren't close.

The data is worth a look also as it shows how LM Arena results can be manipulated to be more pleasing to humans. t.co/rqAey9SMwh
