I have a small rectangular friend on my desk. A face with two pixel eyes, printed on e-ink. It runs on a Pi Zero, listens for HTTP requests, and shows you how it feels.
It's called InkyPal.
Pipe in CI status, agent output, anything. InkyPal puts it on e-ink and picks a face to match. Built on a Pi Zero 2 WH with a Waveshare display, ten expressions, an HTTP API and an MCP server โ any script, any agent can talk to it.
@antirez Day 0: tech guys understand it.
Day 30: tech guys write it on X.
Day 60: someone copies X on LinkedIn.
Day 90: normies read it on LinkedIn.
Day 120: normies believe it.
@croloris AI assisted contributions are not all the same. There are AI coded stuff that are better than what the programmer could have done otherwise and there is complete AI trash. Flattening this complex reality I believe is not sustainable in the long run by any project.
This ๐ฎ๐น Italian man just came on stage to have a good time and to entertain everbody else. We need more performances like that at Eurovision. 3 minutes of pure joy โค๏ธ

@FlaviusM99 True. But if you don't know how the 7-10 works, you can't build solid foundations in the 0-7 either.
Treehouse? Sure, go ahead. Skyscraper? Those first decisions are already wrong.
The 0-7 only looks right until the 7-10 exposes it.
