Developing solutions for over 15 years, you often reach a point in your projects where you wish you would have done things differently. Then you do things differently in the next project, and down the line you feel the same way. This is the self-taught education loop of engineering real life solutions. Now, with AI, you can collapse those loops faster. You don't have to wait until the next project: you can spin off a complete parallel rebuild around your new thinking. Vibecoders, take advantage of this. Don't let the sunk cost fallacy drag you into the mire. Keep iterating, keep learning, your solutions will get better.

I'm fully on Debian now for my primary workstation. mac Mini is a stripped down sidekick. What else can I do with it? What about this? Worth a try?

Gave my agents a GitHub App to manage issues across projects. .md task files and local kanbans -> straight to jail. I should have done this months ago.

Just stepped behind the door at @maskoai. masko.ai/s/TDAPKPY I have no idea what's going on, but @paulo_kombucha is 🍳🍚🔥

Developers, what is your moat? What it has always been. You can stare at a computer screen for hours. Non-technical people can vibecode their SaaS, sure. But then they want to have a life. You win.

Tired of markdown editors? Make your .md files now open as styled HTML in the browser md() { out="/tmp/md-$(date %s%N)-$(basename "$1").html" pandoc --standalone --css=~/.local/share/md-preview/style.css \ "$1" -o "$out" && xdg-open "$out" } dark CSS, no app, no electron. double-click works too (xdg-mime). pandoc does the work. you do the css.

my whole feed is hyping agent loops. if you're not looping 1gorillion apps and the money printer isn't going brrrr you're mass ngmi > but i need to review my agent output 😫 250 mutes > skill issue 😎 1,000,000 likes

I rebuilt my workstation on Debian and needed the envchain pattern without the macOS Keychain. The Proton Pass CLI injects secrets from an already-synced vault into your dev process. No .env on disk, and agent tokens are scoped and short-lived. solutionscay.com/cookbook/re…

Finally dialed in my Debian setup. I settled on Warp for dev work. One thing that annoys me about agentic terminal apps: the built-in file trees and editors. I've tried just using terminals but yea, I often have to review files believe or not. I open a few of them and end up with panels everywhere. And the toggling markdown dance from raw to preview back to raw what's going on? Let me check this csv file wait what am I doing? It's a nightmare. The trick with Warp: let it open files with the system default app. It's so much simpler. Use the correct app for each extension wow what a concept. This is exactly what I wanted.

I hereby declare this Debian PC my main workstation. Biggest pain: setting up all my secrets. Best discovery: @ProtonPass. Migrated everything personal from KeePassXC, and gated all my project secrets behind ProtonPass CLI. Goodbye Mac mini 🥹 It's time to cook 😤🍙🍳

Claude Code is back

Why is Codex weekly usage so stubborn and won't go down to 0% what am I doing wrong?

Anyone becoming the engineer who beats their local market? 80% of build-in-public content is just distribution noise. Are you building SaaS and screaming into the global void? Or leveraging your expertise network local presence?
