I made a simple #Claude Code #skill to recommend books based on what I’ve read and checks to see if they’re available through #Libby. This my first skill but it seems to work well. I chose the skill format because it’s simple unauthenticated API calls to Overdrive/Libby. github.com/cloin/libbrary

I released a 1.0 of semaphore-mcp! With this release, I’m publishing a podman/docker container that makes it easy to stand up semaphore-mcp beside your semaphore instance. This is great for the #ansible, #homelab and #selfhost crew. If you use it, I hope you enjoy it! github.com/cloin/semaph...
I put together an #MCP server for semaphore a couple months ago that allows you to interact with your #Ansible automation from clients like #Claude desktop! Great for #selfhosting! Have a look github.com/cloin/semaph...
I took a stab at creating an MCP server for #Semaphore #Ansible and ran a couple basic tests with Claude. Fun little side project! So many MCPs popping up.
I may have spent an unreasonable amount of time creating a workflow to evaluate my child's youtube videos before they're made public with #n8n 🤷♂️ #homelab #selfhost
#vibecoding was more fun when it was beer instead of AI
Are people really walking around with all of these app notifications enabled? I don’t think the answer to that mess is AI.
Lampoons vegas vacation? That movie reminds me of Fremont. Give me El Cortez all week!
If you use AI at all, are curious to understand what makes Deepseek cool, love excallidraw or just have 3 hours to kill, you seriously need to watch this. m.youtube.com/watch?v=7xTG...
A-shell, an iOS/ipados app, allows you to run shell commands using #shortcuts! I’ve scheduled a command to download NYT web edition as an epub to my iPad every morning before I wake up. Quite nice!
I recently read that #Calibre has recipes to automatically download articles from popular news sites and create ebooks from this content. I wrapped the #NYT recipe in a github actions workflow to grab NYT web edition each morning.
Nothing really “new” here but I like it, use it, maybe you will too
Cheek sneak? Heiny heave? Idk. Make it worse.
Petition to rename tush push: butt shuffle, glute scoot. Just something cuter to make it more embarrassing to attempt
How can both KC and Buffalo lose today?
It hit me just now, #GitHub gives away a lot for free and it’s refreshing.
I wish they’d use apple intelligence to actually shuffle a playlist. Turning on shuffle seemingly just plays the playlist in the same “shuffled” order every time.
Trying my hardest to dream of Jameis Winston in the snow tonight.
That was by far the least interested I’ve ever been in watching a Browns game. Good riddance, 2024.
If you start watching HEAT at exactly 9:47:45 pm tonight, you'll still be watching it at midnight. It's a long movie. Good movie, but long.
I’m surprised Google keeps releasing new Nest thermostats. I don’t touch or even look at the 2 I have. I just want them to disappear into my wall. They could get rid of the display and just sink into the drywall. Shoot, I’d probably pay more for a Nest I never see.
That time of year where we say what we're thankful for. I'm STILL thankful for the most useful #javascript #code I've ever written which archives/deletes #gmail threads based on searches. It runs every night and evaluates whether or not to delete/archive based on age of thread. 🤗
Watching Shrek 3… Damien Rice 9 Crimes is in this?
Still #running in AirPods or the like? Stop it! These headphones are far and away the best workout headphones and I’ll never be swayed www.bestbuy.com/site/shokz-o...
I don’t know how lame it is to read a bunch of books by the same author, but I started #Murakami with Hardboiled and I’m super excited to open up Uncertain Walls
I played so much Dark Castle on that Mac!
Yes! I spent some time configuring iOS focus modes and app notifications to correspond to working hours and that was time very well spent. 🙈
I built a streamlined workflow for #ServiceNow catalog order fulfillment with Red Hat #Ansible #Automation Platform—no spokes, no business rules, no javascript, just pure #eventdriven automation in action.

Mastodon is better.
