Everyone's throwing "agent", "MCP", "tool", "skill" around like they mean the same thing. They don't.
New post unpacks all four and how they wire together 👇

@_almin @interesting_aIl I have them on my 4-year old Audi

@BartInTheField @theo I know more developers using the Dvorak layout in the UK than the US layout

[Dave Rix @Hasgaroth]

@AetherAurelia This is exactly why I bought two external Apple keyboards, in different colours, so I also know which laptop they are connected to 👍🏻

[Dave Rix @Hasgaroth]

@icanvardar Use an external keyboard when possible. Much cheaper than replacing the Mac, and nicer to use as the keys are a bit more spread out 👌

Something special about the Falcon Heavy simultaneous side booster landings

@matthew_d_green Definitely an app issue, that sort of thing should be picked up in QA before the app gets released. Safari has been doing that for years.
Similar problem on an Audi site yesterday, when clicking accept on cookie consent, page jumps to a new place and no click 😩

[Dave Rix @Hasgaroth]

@cherthedev Me too. Started coding in 1984.
Graduated university in 1993.
Git was first released in 2005.
Joined GitHub in April 2011.
That makes me feel **really** old.

@boagworld Streaming TV are doing a nice variation at the moment, releasing two or three episodes on day 1, then the rest weekly. Gives a good start, and then I tend to watch the most recent episode a second time when the new one is released.

Gotta love having a cold, trying to get an early night, and then spending hour after hour coughing and spluttering 🤒

[Dave Rix @Hasgaroth]

@pandocruises None of the above. I just prefer to relax and read a book.

@gunsnrosesgirl3 I’m more impressed with the craft knife!

[Dave Rix @Hasgaroth]

@elbow112 Had similar at my house earlier this week, but fortunately from an outside drain cover. Need to deal with it properly this weekend 😷

[Dave Rix @Hasgaroth]

@nikitabier You could fit my entire village in that square, and probably buy all the houses for $14m too!!

[Dave Rix @Hasgaroth]

Brilliant 🤣
