I remember when 8-bit machines ruled the Earth, IOS was a Cisco thing, and e-mail bounced around via dial-up, back before the first AI winter.

I'm now enjoying the new AI spring and doing all sorts of fun stuff.

This is lovely. And I bet it is very fast on that hardware, all things considered.

This is pretty neat. I have been spending the past few months adding an ARM64 JIT to Basilisk II ( https://github.com/rcarmo/macemu ) and totally appreciate what's involved (I…

Well, LLMs don’t know that. I have Codex happily running gdb inside tmux to debug stack traces, and it works fine.

Not sure why I should use this instead of the baked-in OS dictation features (which I use almost daily--just double-tap the world key, and you're there). What's the advantage?

This is fun. I just wish I could add more skills, the UX is too dumbed down but knowing there is a run_js tool there is a lot that can be done here.

I’ve found tmux does a lot more than you’d expect, and it’s become a trivial suggestion that most models can act upon without any real prompting.

This must be specific to Common Lisp. I’ve had no significant issues with Fennel and Chez Scheme, although to be fair it was on existing projects and they are not languages I would start a project wit…

TinyGo was instrumental in getting https://github.com/rcarmo/go-rdp to work. It generates very tight, pretty high performing WASM, and that allowed me to push all the RDP decodin…

Nice. My take on this is https://github.com/rcarmo/piclaw and https://github.com/rcarmo/webterm since I prefer to run my agents away from my desktop but sti…

I've had Calibre running someplace and mailing me news every weekend for around... 15 years? I keep waiting for Amazon to break mail-to-kindle, but fortunately that hasn't happened yet. Gmai…

TL;DR: I wish they'd just align with Blender on UX, TBH. I wish they settled on a nicer UX with less visual clutter. I use Blender and it is a _massively_ more complex application in every regard…

I built https://github.com/rcarmo/umcp to be tiny _and_ fast, but this has some nice twists on the theme. Will investigate for sure (even if it seems like a much larger dependenc…

I hope it’s not just the look. The ability to group tabs from various apps into a single window was the best UX feature it had, and I still miss it sometimes.

I’m struggling with how useful this is in an enterprise setting where a security team will be at least slightly annoyed at devs hooking into their personal machines via untrusted chat… but OK, I guess…
