Do you have a box of USB cables? A baggy full of twist ties? That *really good* box that you might need?

This song is for you.

@Angry_Staffer Israel and Hamas? Seriously?

2020: I have too many tabs open.

2026: I have too many agents running.

I have discovered $50 amazon photo frames to be the PERFECT home display screen

They can be rooted, updated to run a modern browser, have WiFi and can be powered from USB

1280×800 resolution with a nice touch screen

I detailed how to hack these yourself in my latest video

...with twice the brightness, and an extra *1.4 lbs* - and to get charged an additional $1,800 for the privilege.

In the "old days" you could just swap in a larger stick of RAM and call it a day.

Now, get off my lawn.

🧵 I'm grateful that I could upgrade from a 15" M2 MacBook Air to a new 16" M5 Pro MacBook Pro.

But all I really wanted was the same machine I already owned with more RAM.

[John Federico @gadgetb0y]

Instead, I got pushed up the Apple upgrade pipeline because - surprise! - you can't get a MacBook Air with more than 32GB RAM.

Yes, the MacBook Pro has better specs but I don't need an extra Thunderbolt port, an HDMI port, an SD card reader, a ProMotion XDR Mini-LED display...

@boardyai Put your idle compute to work for you on the Cloud for Edge Computing. https://t.co/SDJ67Kf6fu

[John Federico @gadgetb0y]

I used to get frustrated with my agents for doing things without my instruction. Now I'm arguing with them about semantics in AGENTS.md when they tell me they're not allowed to do something. I guess that's an improvement?

[Jared Shult @jared_shult]

No way he thought this was a good line 😭

I’m sure Fox News will be covering this, right?

@evolvingedgeai Every claim in Ch. 9 is paired with the test that checks it, plus 5 things you can verify without us. Read it and tell us what we got wrong:

We just published a 46-page security white paper for @evolvingedgeai. The best part isn’t a feature. It’s the chapter called “Limits We State Plainly.” 🧵

[John Federico @gadgetb0y]

@evolvingedgeai What we don’t claim: information-theoretic security, unlinkability between nodes, forward secrecy. And Level 2 plaintext does sit in operator RAM for one request. We say so, and tell you to use Level 1 if that matters to you.
