right. control mode would be a win for ux (github.com/ghostty-org/...) but it's still tmux ya know. all the weird broken stuff.

i hate tmux so much and would love to stop using it, but this is a deal breaker: "cmux does not restore live process state yet. Active terminal app sessions such as Claude Code, tmux, and vim are not resumed after app restart" :-(

i quit astrophysics 12 years ago, but one thing that will get me to read an astro-ph posting to the arxiv is "Author: @hogg.bsky.social" and "white paper". "Why do we do astrophysics?" does not disappoint arxiv.org/abs/2602.10181. surely the first arXiv posting with "ACAB" in it.

Photocopies are indispensable instruments. They allow you to keep with you a text you have already read in the library, and to take home a text you have not read yet. But a set of photocopies can become an alibi. A student makes hundreds of pages of photocopies and takes them home, and the manual labour he (sic) exercises in doing so gives him the impression that he possesses the work. Owning the photocopies exempts the student from actually reading them. This sort of vertigo of accumulation, a neo-capitalism of information, happens to many. Defend yourself from this trap; as soon as you have the photocopy, read it and annotate it immediately. If you are not in a great hurry, do not photocopy something new before you own (that is before you have read and annotated) the previous set of photocopies. There are many things I do not know because I photocopied a text and then relaxed as if I had read it.

My Fully Automated Labor Law Research Tool Is Finally Here YouTube video by Matt Bruenig

now we're talking. a claude skill by @mattbruenig.bsky.social built on top of stuff that required a bunch of coding, but which itself has nothing to do with coding. expert-level (at least) labor law research, roughly for free, built on top of nlrbresearch.com/NLRB/NLRB_DB

Software Practices from the Scrap Heap? I’m going to keep writing half baked things about AI, because it’s what I’m spending a noticeable number of hours thinking about these days, and because I don’t think it’s possible to be fully baked o...

his takes (or sources?) are worthless imo. my guess is this one is due the superficial resemblance between gas town (LLM psychosis + "i'M wRitinG tIcKets") and agile.

An Ed Zitron post quoting Paul Ford posting his recent nytimes story about vibe coding. Zitron says: “every single piece like this should include a statement as to whether the writer is using a subscription to Claude or ChatGPT or if they're paying for the API, and if it's a subscription, the article should have a giant red sign that says THIS USER WAS SUBSIDIZED”

Only bad people go after Paul Ford. I’ve observed this rule for more than a decade and it’s never been wrong once.
