Stay away from my trash!
If writing the code is the easy part, why would I want someone else to write it?

Stop Using Boomer Ai
I was listening to these guys talk about migrating off of boomer ai the other
day. Introducing the term boomer ai to describe using chat, copy, paste
instead of agents. Something magical happened to the tooling and models around
december, they got really good. The chatgpt $20 plan hooked into opencode is
good, the Free models in Opencode Zen (Big Pickle and Kimi K2.5 Free) are
really good. Neither of these quite match up to the speed and quality of the
larger plans, but they are good. good enough to throw away your boomer ai
techniques and start using agents. Agents are the future, and they are here
now. If you are still using chat, copy, paste, you are doing it wrong. Stop
using boomer ai and start using agents. You will be amazed at how much better
your results will be.

DockFrame - Modular USB-C Hub with Framework-Compatible Expansion Cards
DockFrame is a modular USB-C hub that accepts Framework-compatible Expansion Cards and custom Tool Cards. Dock once, reconfigure whenever.
DockFrame Ā· dockframe.com [1]
Dockframe looks like a really cool concept using the framework tiles ( the connectors idk what they are called ) to build a dock.

Quick Tip To Get Agents Running Longer
Here's a quick tip if you want to get your agents running longer, **prompt better**.
I really wish I would have got this right a few years ago. Theres a couple of
flags I had to use to get mdformat to do hard wraps at 80 characters and not
wreck tables. This mix of flags and plugins is workign really well for me so
far.
mdfmt() {
uvx \
--with "mdformat-ruff" \
--with "mdformat-beautysh" \
--with "mdformat-web" \
--with "mdformat-config" \
--with "mdformat-gfm" \
--with "mdformat-front-matters" \
--with "mdformat-wikilink" \
--with "mdformat-simple-breaks" \
mdformat \
--wrap 80 \
--end-of-line lf \
--codeformatters python \
--codeformatters bash \
"$@"
}
And as pre-commmit.

I Hope This Email Finds You Before I Do
I Hope This Email Finds You Before I Do
Last Week in AWS Ā· lastweekinaws.com [1]
This post was filled with real life, snark, entertainment, feelings. I get a lot of these emails that claim they can change my SEO game if I give them 500, for a site making 0, Link partnerships from small startups. A lot of these are so automated that if I do respond I dont even get a response. Iāve responded to many simply asking what is this about, I get 10 others just like you a week. Can you tell me what exactly you want and what each of us benefit from it, how did you find me. All normal questions, they almost always result in crickets, no response, maybe its time to implement a Billie for more snark.

Ping 19
What no one is talking about is that Deegs doesn't get the red plate without
Anstie on the ground.

What is that
I was unironically asked what is that about my keeb today. Followed by no way
that works, how would you type a, s, y, u, after showing, I go the "that's
weird" walk away.
