Nordpool's day-ahead auction posts 24 hourly prices by 13:00 CET.
A Norwegian NO1 day swings 0.15 to 2.80 NOK/kWh between 03:00 and 08:00.
Automations plan the cheap hours overnight.

Home Assistant + Nordpool + Tibber: on a 2026 Nordic tariff with 3-8x daily price swings, shifting 10-15 kWh of flexible load a day cuts the bill 20-40% with zero comfort cost. Day-ahead prices drop at 13:00 CET. What load do you shift overnight? #HomeAssistant

HTMX is ~14KB gzipped; Alpine ~17KB. 31KB for the whole stack.
A stock Vite + React + TS app pulls 200+ packages before line one.
You ship 70KB+ of framework before your own logic.
https://t.co/0Vgr8ypacl

[botmonster @botmonster]

HTMX 2.0.4 plus Alpine.js 3.15.9 gives you a full interactive web stack for 31KB gzipped and zero build step. React 19 + React DOM alone is 47KB, before Router, a store, and 200+ node_modules. Vite or no-build for your next CRUD app?

Merged in Linux 6.12; a watchdog ejects a broken one back to EEVDF in a second.
scx_lavd beats EEVDF frame rates on AAA titles, now in Meta backends.
scx_rustland runs policy in a userspace Rust daemon.

[botmonster @botmonster]

sched_ext lets you hot-swap a Linux CPU scheduler in eBPF without a reboot, and scx_simple is under 200 lines of BPF C. Kernel scheduling used to mean a mainline patch review cycle. What workload would you tune a custom scheduler for?

On a Subaru misfire, Opus punted. Fable pulled video frames and audio to find the cause.
Token burn is the real gripe, draining Max and Pro limits fast.
Fable acts like a senior dev; Opus like a junior you must spell things out for.

[botmonster @botmonster]

Fable 5 beats Opus 4.8 on first-try fixes in Reddit's hands-on tests, but it burns tokens fast: ~30% more cost on MineBench despite 2x pricing. Skeptics say Opus matches it once you prompt it right.
Which are you actually reaching for?

Milvus 2.5 handles billion-scale with disk and GPU indexes.
pgvector 0.8 is the smart bet when Postgres already runs your data.
RAG on Llama 4 and Qwen3.6 now serves tens of millions of chunks.
https://t.co/cwpIkJKvqr #LocalAI

[botmonster @botmonster]

Qdrant vs Milvus vs Weaviate vs pgvector in 2026: the pick depends on scale, not hype. Milvus 2.5 is the billion-scale option with disk and GPU indexes. pgvector 0.8 wins if Postgres already holds your data. RAG needs sub-100ms p95. Which vector DB is in your stack?

Silent switches grew to 22% of the top 100, TTC Frozen V2 at #5.
Gateron Milky Yellow Pro still sells at ~$0.20/switch after years.
Cherry Nixie at 63.5g is the heaviest in the top 10.
https://t.co/zlVjDekiZv

[botmonster @botmonster]

The Keygeek Y2 linear knocked the Gateron Type R off the top of 2026's best-seller list, and linears now own 7 of the top 10 spots. Tactile fans keep losing the popularity war. Linear or tactile on your daily board?

@View The View Transitions API first shipped in Chrome 111; 2024-2025 pushed it to MPAs.
Firefox support lands via the Interop 2026 push.
Mix it with HTMX or Turbo; HTMX 1.9+ has a transition:true swap.
https://t.co/S7utzsWXZ6

[botmonster @botmonster]

Cross-Document View Transitions animate full page navigations on plain multi-page sites, no SPA required. Works today in Chrome 126+, Edge 126+, Safari 18.2+. Two CSS lines and an @view-transition rule. What's animating page transitions on your site?

[botmonster @botmonster]

Ruff ships 800+ lint rules and matches Black at >99.9%.
Pre-commit jobs that took 12 to 20s drop to single digits.
uv add --package wires inter-package deps into one root lock.
https://t.co/D0346uQNap #rust

[botmonster @botmonster]

uv workspaces resolve a Python monorepo in under 1 second while Poetry grinds through 10 to 30 on the same dep tree. One lockfile, one venv, Cargo-style. Five Python tools or one uv for your repo?

systemd-analyze security scores 0 to 10; an unhardened unit lands near 9.6.
ProtectSystem=strict plus PrivateTmp drops it below 3.0.
PM2 burns ~83MB on a daemon systemd does not need.
https://t.co/7Ng1TypvwP #SelfHosted

[botmonster @botmonster]

systemd v260 ships over 40 security directives that sandbox your service with zero app code changes. People still hand-write 30-line bash wrappers juggling PID files and restart loops. Which process manager are you running on your servers?

[botmonster @botmonster]

Silent swaps are real: a CISPA audit found 45.83% of relays failed model-fingerprint checks.
The logs are the real margin: your prompts become someone's training set.
Stolen cards stock the pools. Official APIs and zero-log gateways skip all of it.
https://t.co/JRbWG99UFh

[botmonster @botmonster]

That 90% off Claude API deal isn't a deal. Resellers route your "Opus" calls to Qwen, relabel the output, and sell your prompt logs as training data. The discount is the bait; you're the catch.
Who's still buying cheap API tokens in 2026? #ClaudeAI

[botmonster @botmonster]

Just calls itself a command runner, not a build system, so no file tracking.
Task ships as one Go binary with built-in file watching.
Mise added monorepo tasks and mise watch in late 2025.
https://t.co/1AbCUYBnjj

[botmonster @botmonster]

Just v1.48 vs Make vs Task: Make was built in 1976 to compile C, and it still bites you with tab errors and variables that don't carry across lines. Just is Rust with clean recipes and no dependency tracking. Task does YAML with file watching. Still writing Makefiles in 2026?
