Jen Looper compares the academic humanities job market collapse of the 90s to the anxiety devs feel as AI takes over coding work. What's new is the opportunity to bring interdisciplinary perspective into an industry that needs it more than ever.

Inside most disposable vapes is a fully functional 3.7V lithium-ion cell β the same chemistry powering your phone. This dev is harvesting them for power banks, and wants to know: why aren't more devs talking about upcycling e-waste?

After years of building and buying analytics tools, this dev built Drizby β an MIT-licensed, single-container BI platform built on a typed semantic layer. Define your metrics once, enforce them everywhere.

This dev started professional software development in 1986 at Tandy Computers β and wants *you* to guess what it was like. Tools, machines, storage, languages, how you turned in assignments. Submit your take and find out how close you got.

Built a tiny Go CLI that talks to an AVR over WebSocket, then wired it into Home Assistant as a command_line switch. The hard part wasn't sending commands β it was making state verification reliable enough for automations.

What's the most useless thing you can build?
Captcha that feels trigonometry?π
A vertical scroll bar that moves horizontally?βοΈ
Show us how weird you can get and you could be one of five winners of a tea pot (really).

Timberborn added HTTP levers to its automation system β so this dev used ~1,000 of them as bits to encode JSON into binary, flip them via HTTP requests, and read the data back. The crazy thing? It works.

Happy Monday!!
A quick Saturday afternoon project turned into some shenanigans again. I turned Timberborn's in-game automation mechanics into an HTTP storage! You can read about it on @dev.to:

Nexus AI Agent
Multi-agent AI doesn't have an execution problem. It has a coordination problem. Each agent does its job. Nobody decides if the job should be done.
We built Nexus to be that layer.
Open source: github.com/PermaShipAI/nexus

Wrote a full walkthrough on deploying a highly available cluster on bare metal with Canonical MicroCloud. 4 nodes, Ceph distributed storage, software-defined networking, 30 minute setup. No Terraform needed.

"AI agents write code confidently, but they don't know *why* your code looks the way it does." This dev built DLD β an append-only decision log with decision annotations that gives agents the reasoning before they modify anything.

After an AI agent deleted 47 tickets, reassigned tasks to people who'd left the company, and marked critical bugs as "resolved" β this dev stopped believing the demos. A hard look at why agentic AI can still fail in production.

Congrats to this week's Top 7 Authors!
Make sure to check out @kat.lol's piece on why companies should treat open source as infrastructure.
Also, a fascinating story about what happened when one dev gave their AI Agent a persistent memory and identity.

Happy #MemeMonday to one and all!
Brian ran into pairing failures and hanging health checks getting OpenClaw running on macOS with Telegram. This dev documents the exact commands that fixed it β and the default security policy they now apply to every agent session.

Dennis traces the loneliness of modern dev work β from pandemic-era remote shifts to agents replacing colleagues β and asks what we lose when we stop pulling someone out of their context to think together.

Googleβs new Colab MCP server is more powerful than it first sounds.
I used it to let an AI agent build, run, debug, and submit a real quantum chemistry notebook from scratch inside Colab.
