Literally just thought last weekend that someone should make a movie with the SR-71 Blackbird.
The most amazing looking plane of my childhood.
And what do they do, they blow it up!
Looks like a fun movie tho.

Glorious.

This is shocking. At an EU Foreign Affairs Committee meeting, Lynn Boylan lamented that it was “a pity we can’t use our own language.” When it was pointed out that she could, in fact, speak Irish, she backtracked almost instantly: "I wasn’t prepared, so I’ll use English."

Finally started my first Colm Tóibín book - "A Guest at the Feast". I read the "Cancer: My Part in Its Downfall" essay. Described online as darkly humorous.
Found it bland, a bit boring and completely uninsightful.
Was the seagull bit the "humour"? Are the others better?

I got 4 on my last long trail run in Ireland. They are rampant on The Kerry Way.
No idea what variety they are but I was impressed one made it half way up my thigh.

Success Eduan will make her official individual Diamond League debut this Saturday, when she competes in the 200m in London (July 18).

She will face Gabby Thomas, Julien Alfred, Amy Hunt, Dina Asher-Smith, Cambrea Sturgis, Shaunae Miller-Uibo and Anavia Battle at the London Stadium.

The people running Twitter finally start realising why people used Twitter.
The fact that they only noticed this now tells you everything.
"Oh you don't want relentless influencer slop? You want the see the people you have chosen to follow. Well that's unexpected.".

We're rolling out a small tweak to boost visibility of your posts to your mutuals (people who you follow back). We noticed this data was missing from the algo and it made your friends appear less in your replies. This resulted in the reply section feeling more like a battleground with people you don't recognize. This should also help clusters form around interests more easily, which many people have asked for.

A slide from our last all hands.
I've also started to call out this behavior publicly in Slack channels.
Tired of consuming workslop

best friend is a PM and is back at work after 5 months maternity leave she is shocked at how many coworkers / partners have outsourced critical thinking and now copy pasta claude “feels like they’re not using their brain, very frustrating”

@chris_byrne Haven't used rsync in a long time! SMB Linux-Windows fully saturates the LAN. Linux-Mac is 20-30% of that. Even with all the tweaks listed online.

It's 2026 and I have to use OpenMTP, with a UI from hell, to copy files from a Mac to an Android tablet.
The Mac also transfers files by SMB as if I was connected by coax ethernet via a vampire tap.

Your IoT prototype can do more than wait for cloud commands.
ESP-Claw is Espressif’s “Chat Coding” AI agent framework for IoT devices running on ESP32-series chips.
It helps you define device behavior through conversation by combining IM chat, dynamic Lua loading, an event-driven agent loop, local sensing/decision/execution, and board-level flashing paths.
Key features:
• Chat as creation – define behavior through IM chat with dynamic Lua loading
• Event-driven agent loop – device events can trigger sensing, decision-making, and execution
• Structured memory – organizes memories on-device so private context does not have to live in the cloud
• MCP communication – supports standard MCP devices and can work as both server and client
• Browser flashing path – supported ESP32-S3/P4/C5/S31 boards can be configured and flashed online without local compilation
It’s open-source (Apache License 2.0).

Something strange has happened over the last 10 years
When I was a kid, every tech publication (Wired, TechCrunch, Engadget) truly loved and celebrated technology
Over the last 10 years they all collectively decided they absolutely LOATHE technology.
Every article is a hit piece. Every entrepreneur and creative thinker is being destroyed. The greatest inventors of our lives are being villainized.
A lot of people are saying it’s because we live in a clickbait culture and hate is what drive clicks, but I don’t buy it
If hate drove clicks all of these publications would be thriving. Instead, they’re all failing, going bankrupt, laying people off and on top of that I literally can’t name a single person who reads any of them
There is a such a massive opportunity right now for anyone who’s willing to start a tech publication that actually celebrates and loves technology.
I’m DYING for a version of Wired that actually covers real tech with an optimistic lens, and I know many other are too.
Might have to f around and do this myself.

I gave WIRED the exclusive on our hands launch, and they wrote a really weird article about how we are sexualizing robotics… wired.com/story/the-1x-n… I felt pretty betrayed because that’s not what they told me they were writing about not is that what I’ve ever been about… actually I stand for quite the opposite… But I’ve come to find a lot of dishonesty and malice in the journalism community so I wasn’t surprised. This is what I sent the author… I’m only sharing this because I hope it encourages journalists to resist the click bait trap and tell truly awesome stories because I for one don’t believe journalism is dead— I think it’s just starting and just needs to evolve past the weird corner of the internet where data driven optimization turns everything into smooth brained shocking brain rot bullshit. The technological revolution we are going through should inspire a journalism renaissance. Not let it fall into further decay. There is so much brilliance at play in the world and the stories should be told! My note: “[author name redacted], it was nice talking to you, but I wanted to let you know that I didn’t enjoy your article at all. I understand the need to be inflammatory because that seems to be the only thing that gets clicks these days but that doesnt mean you shouldn’t recognize when something special is in front of you. I trusted our PR team in saying we should offer you the exclusive on what is one of the most important technological developments in the history of Mankind and I deeply regret it. Good luck with the rest of your writing career. -Dar Sleeper”

@GerrikoIO There are definitely "knobs" being turned regularly by all the vendors. Codex on Thursday couldn't get anything right. Completely misunderstood simple instructions. But it was totally fine yesterday.

@conoro Not sure how one "falls behind" with a neural net. It seems that maybe the depth of thought is not as deep as it once was... Like supermarket product shrinkage. They sneak it in, hoping you won't notice.

I've been a supporter of Gemini (flash & pro) up until now, but it's no longer fit for purpose. It fails to keep to a requirement spec and it silently inserts old code that had been rejected due to bugs. Not fit for coding. Piss poor.
