I’m rebuilding a 1980 Suzuki GS850 with my son and I have never known shit about electrical. But I’m determined to learn and I’m already learning so much. It’s a great project. Reminds me a lot of coding

My only concern with atproto’s development or Bluesky more generally is that funding is from venture capitalists. I can’t think of a historical web or internet protocol that was funded with capitalist returns expected (maybe I’m wrong?). I’m not sure how this can work in the long run

The internet is only as forever as you make it. This is why I don’t like blogging on closed platforms. I want every one of my blog posts in HTML or markdown format that I can have forever and recreate anywhere. tallywinkle.bearblog.dev/the-internet...

Nova The beautiful, fast, flexible, native Mac code editor from Panic.

A couple of years ago, I paid $99 for Nova, a Mac only IDE. I didn’t give it much time tbh, but I’m thinking about giving it another shot. It’s made by Panic, and it’d be cool to support them. nova.app

We just updated Orbiter's custom domain infra to be decidedly faster and more resilient. Our original setup used a traditional NGINX reverse proxy. Now, we're using Cloudflare proxies. This gives us the full benefit of Cloudflare's CDN as well as bot and DDOS protection without manual configuration

Will The Fear Of Being Confused For AI Mean That We Will Now Write Differently? - 3 Quarks Daily by David Beer

A friendly introduction to assembly for high-level programmers — Hello A friendly introduction to assembly for high-level programmers — Hello

Last year, I read a lot of books on the history of PC and console gaming. It made me start thinking about assembly more than I ever had. Just came across this interactive tutorial and will be diving into during my free time on my vacation. shikaan.github.io/assembly/x86...

Yeah I’ve only done this with an older MBP. Hopefully community support for Linux on the newer models continues to improve.

One Year Left: Apple’s Long Goodbye For Intel Macs After two decades, Apple has announced its final version of MacOS for Intel. Guess that means Hackintoshing is done, too.

People should take all their old Intel Macs that will no longer be supported by the upcoming versions of macOS and turn them into Linux machines rather than dump them. tedium.co/2025/06/09/a...

The Shape of the Essay Field

Paul Graham has some really good essays, but its essays like this that make him sound elitist and out of touch. You know why you should write? Because you want to. Simple as that.

GitHub - jchester/bobotw: A stupid waste of time that I enjoyed A stupid waste of time that I enjoyed. Contribute to jchester/bobotw development by creating an account on GitHub.

I’ve felt this way a lot. Next.js especially makes me feel this way. I will still use React quite a bit, but I’ve decided I’m done jumping through the constantly changing bits of Next and would prefer the simplicity of an old client-server relationship.
