Deleting Code for Performance The one where I clean up an asynchronous mess. dbushell.com · dbushell.com I did not realize that David’s site was built on a homegrown Static Site Generator. As someone who also does this myself I appreciate the effort. I build my site on markata. It started as a project to learn a set of tools and has become a project that I depend on everywhere and cant put down. It’s a great tool, but you probably shouldn’t use it. Anyways, I feel this really shows on David’s site. His site is filled with custom features that make it very unique, one off, and always a pleasure to read.

gpus are awesome
GPU's are awesome. I just added gpu support to my bambu-studio distrobox and
its flying! On my wayland based system the native package has never worked,
(arch or bazzite), but running in a distrobox does. Outside of distrobox the 3d
rendering canvas is black, no output. It used to work fine without gpu
support, was snappy enough, complex models were a bit sluggish, but fine.
Lately something happened and simple models bring it to its knees. It got
unusable!

Niche companies will rise from the ashes. Companies that want to build good products for customers. Companies that will get hundreds of users. They will treat them right and make enough money to support themselves, maybe. Alongside them we will self host. We will run our own services out of our basement. There will be downtime, but its ok. We will enjoy ourselves. We will tell everyone how much better it is BTW Next to that is a firehose of shit piling back into the circular snakes mouth as all of your data flows freely between any company that can get their hands on it. These companies will spend and make money hand over fist. Most people will continue to use these services until enough is enough and unplug from everything. In this world I don’t see how we sustain the amount of engineers we have created. Small companies run lean, small, and allow slow organic growth happen. It will be interesting to see play out.
Malicious Traffic and Static Sites I wrote about the 404s I serve for robots.txt. Now it’s time to look at some of the other common 404s I serve across my static sites (as reported by Netlify’s… blog.jim-nielsen.com These look like fun endpoints to add anti-maliciously, give good stuff for the sleezy things to read.
A ChatGPT prompt equals about 5.1 seconds of Netflix In June 2025 Sam Altman claimed about ChatGPT that "the average query uses about 0.34 watt-hours". In March 2020 George Kamiya of the International Energy Agency estimated that "streaming a … Simon Willison’s Weblog · simonwillison.net This feels very promising for the future as we enter a world that is more and more dependent on AI that inference is so cheap. I did not understand the scale to how much cheaper inference is compared to training. As we get better with training I imagine this gets significantly better as well. I know they all claim to be profitable on inference, but scrolling through Simon’s feed here you see several articles on the stark difference.
I’m impressed by awesome-nanobanana-pro from ZeroLu. 🚀 An awesome list of curated Nano Banana pro prompts and examples. Your go-to resource for mastering prompt engineering and exploring the creative potential of the Nano banana pro(Nano banana 2) AI image model.

2025-11-27 Notes | Nic Payne yesterday: [[2025-11-26-notes]] Big Changes Got my workspaces script in working order It's not quite configurable yet This will allow an easy way to setup pype.dev Nic is also building out a similar workspaces script. This feels like such a great thing to have ai work on fully customized tools for your personal workflow. Also Nice shout out!
K8s Diagram Builder - Visual Kubernetes YAML Generator Free Kubernetes diagram builder with drag-and-drop design. Auto-generate production-ready YAML for Ingress, Services, Deployments, ConfigMaps, Secrets & more. No signup required. K8s Diagram Builder · k8sdiagram.fun This looks like great prototyping tool for k8s. I too often ask ai to get me going with the things I need. I’ve used k8s long enough that I can generally remember all the things I need, roughly where they go, would probably forget a few things and need to iterate, but I cannot remember exactly what goes where and need examples at a minimum. I need to give this a go from desktop and see if it will work for me. Right now looking through mobile looks promising.
Check out dawarich by Freika. It’s a well-crafted project with great potential. Your favorite self-hostable alternative to Google Timeline (Google Location History)
chr15m has done a fantastic job with runprompt. Highly recommend taking a look. Run LLM prompts from your shell
setting COLUMNS env var to a number greater than 0 will make the terminal resize to that number of columns.
COLUMNS=80 uvx --from rich-cli rich myscript.py
Note
Not all programs respct the COLUMNS env var, but rich does, and a lot of
stuff I’m building uses rich.
I discovered this when I was trying to make a low effort readme generated from the code, but did not depend on the size of terminal it was ran on.
# justfile
readme:
echo "# Workspaces" > README.md
echo "" >> README.md
echo '``` bash' >> README.md
COLUMNS=80 ./workspaces.py --help >> README.md
echo '```' >> README.md
I’m really excited about alloy-scenarios, an amazing project by grafana. It’s worth exploring! A collection of working Alloy scenarios
The tea command for gitea (used by forgejo) has a flag for login. With gitea
you can have multiple accounts logged in. When you try to run a command such
as repo create it will prompt you which login to use, but I learned that you
can bake it in to all of them with --login <login-name>
❯ tea repo create --name deleteme --description 'for example'
┃ NOTE: no gitea login detected, whether falling back to login 'git.waylonwalker.com'?
tea repo create --name deleteme --description 'for example' --login git.wayl.one
