Fantastic MCP for Firefox that allows AI agents to see console errors and screenshots of your web apps.

This saves me so much time chatting back and forth with the robots.

In other words, success isn't about being brilliant, it's about keeping going, grit and determination. In the Rocky films there are plenty of jokes about Rocky's intelligence or lack of it, but he achieves far more that most ever will, despite his advanced years (he's 30 in the first movie).

For years we over-weighted algorithm recall. With LLMs, who really needs to remember how to balance a binary tree?

Nobody.

Update your hiring processes to focus on what matters:

- Good Communication
- Goal Oriented Team Members
- System Design, especially trade-offs
- Debugging Production Systems

Is Gareth Rushgrove OK? I’ve just had a random flashback to conftest and realise I’ve not seen anything from him in years and his socials all seem to have been abandoned.

I have absolutely zero interest in watching any movie with Jared Leto, never mind a shitty reprise of one of my favourite childhood movies.

OK. I’ve been using an iPhone for 12 hours and I’m sad to report that there’s no sign of Apple Intelligence anywhere.

I think this is my favourite episode of #Klustered.

If not my favourite, it's certainly top 2!

Have you seen this one?

I wonder what's higher, the percentage of Google employees that rock an iPhone or Apple employees that rock an Android?

Saying this as I'm sat here struggling to remember why I persist with Android when it's just not good enough

Want to learn why asking "Why?" is soo important?

How about the future of platform engineering?

We covered a lot in our latest episode of #CloudNativeCompass with hosts @rawkode.dev, @nimbinatus.bsky.social, and our special guest @chipnick.com

Check it out!

Today we had some long conversations about Arc Bash and the future of scripting as well as platforms and the rise and fall of Kubernetes.\nThe fall of Kubernetes. Hmm. I'll have Claude write a new one

Why don't we have tree-sitter, but for protocols? 😅
We have successfully cloned a repository!
Time to find out if GPT5 can predict enough tokens to successfully write a Git Smart HTTP server for my atproto Git forge, written in Rust with WASM extensions.

What do you think, success or failure?
