@Teknium I was able to get codex-acp added as a model provider to Hermes, and it is working much better for me than the API codex-openai model provider. PR is up at: https://t.co/wrLk1vAiSB

Codex Desktop hammers trustd/syspolicyd so hard other apps won’t launch. Temp binaries under ~/.codex/tmp/ trigger fresh Gatekeeper cycles. Syspolicyd is serial, everything waits. Turned off SIP to work around it, which doesn’t feel great.

Working on the patio today! Sun is out, cold brew is delicious, and getting a lot of work done. Working outside is such a mood enhancer.

My main takeaway from Project Glasswing Claude Mythos Preview: this is a bad time to keep putting off updates.

If you manage endpoints, browsers, phones, or firmware, go clean it up now. “Later” is how routine neglect becomes a headline.

Drop Site obtained harrowing footage of the latest killing which appears to be from the perspective of the woman in pink filming from the sidewalk

Discovered xxHash, a blazingly fast non-cryptographic hash algorithm. Perfect for uniqueness checks on long strings when you need speed over security.

Spot on. Engineers aren’t being replaced by AI. We’re evolving. Less typing, more guiding. The real value is domain knowledge, context, and judgment that AI needs from us.

I had trouble setting up an ARM-based Windows laptop to connect to a printer over the holidays because drivers were x86/x64 only. Had to set up a Raspberry Pi as a print server to fix it. It’s 2026, why are printers still such a pain?

Mole is a tool I have always wanted. A simple, open source utility for macOS that can clean up storage by clearing caches, finding orphaned application data, optimizing databases, and showing you exactly what’s eating your disk space. It is like giving your system an oil change!

Gave my site a facelift + modernized the stack (custom Tailwind theme, modern icons, faster JS). Also set up POSSE: publish once here, then syndicate out to the social platforms.

@mmacging Mostly data nerding. Being able to see this cost breakdown helps me understand if the geothermal meter is saving or costing me money.

@KaiPetainen @danielnickadams Before COVID-19 it was actually nearly full most days. I only know because Barracuda (where I work) had a large number of permits for that lot.

As a company from eastern Germany, we know that building a wall to try and keep people from leaving isn't a good idea.

The basement ceiling is being spray-painted black, causing a dramatic increase in the VOC level throughout the house.

All windows and air filters are activated!
