Thanks for the reply!

I went to make the change, and all the sudden it started working with “>” again (not URL encoded) so this appears to have been a transient issue.

From 27 years ago... you could almost search-and-replace "PCs" with "agents" and re-publish it today...

Dig more coal -- the PCs are coming

The guy who led the Aperture, iPhoto, RAW Camera and Core Image engineering teams (an 18-year Apple veteran) is behind Nitro, which works on macOS, iPadOS and iOS.

I do something similar, but tell the agent to write a recipe into a justfile. Then it can run `just` and get a self-documenting list of all the tooling for the project (just build, just test, etc.)

https://github.com/sindresorhus/quick-look-plugins lists some good ones. (I still use Peek.)

Attestation is already in place from STIR/SHAKEN. You can test your carrier here: https://clearlyip.com/services/attestation-service/

The FCC’s database of compliance is here: https://fccprod.servicenowservices.com/rmd?id=rmd_listings

This is the next step in KYC.

From the GitHub COO on April 3rd:

    Platform activity is surging. There were 1 billion commits in 2025.
    Now, it's 275 million per week, on pace for 14 billion this year if
    growth remains linear (spoiler: it won't.)

    GitHub Actions has grown from 500M minutes/week in 2023 to 1B minutes/week
    in 2025, and now 2.1B minutes so far this week.

    So we're pushing incredibly hard on more CPUs, scaling services, and
    strengthening GitHub’s core features.

They also had a recent blog post about availability: https://github.blog/news-insights/company-news/an-update-on-...

I don't envy the scaling issues the GitHub engineers are facing! #HugOps

There are tons of good options for window management these days.

I’m currently trialing https://tangrid.app/ and it’s got some nice features.

Telemetry (if it’s truly telemetry) is nowhere close to “tracking”. People conflate the two all the time. One can provide useful, anonymous metrics (e.g. “user enabled feature X”) without doing anything but incrementing the counter for “feature X”.

The “Firefox Problem” is that all the power users disable telemetry, so all the “cool” features that power users like (but never get used by “regular people”) get ignored or removed instead of improved because, according to the metrics, “nobody uses them”.

Jira excels when there is a Jira governance committee comprised of people who actually understand data flow and are the only ones with admin privileges.

Too often some manager asks for (and is given) admin access and starts “improving” things.

Sure, anybody can create custom fields and screens and slap together a janky “workflow”, but well-oiled Jira Ops prevent an explosion of custom fields, they curate the create, browse and edit screens of each issue type to only show the fields that are important at that stage, use custom screens on workflow transitions along with validators and conditions to help ensure an issue is always in a reasonable state, etc. Then users don’t complain about the tooling.

But Jira governance takes time, effort, discussions with stakeholders, etc. And without it Jira gets a bad rap.

The scale of growth they’re dealing with is insane.

“There were 1 billion commits in 2025. Now, it's 275 million per week, on pace for 14 billion this year if growth remains linear (spoiler: it won't.)

GitHub Actions has grown from 500M minutes/week in 2023 to 1B minutes/week in 2025, and now 2.1B minutes so far this week.”

Bebop⁽¹⁾ is my preferred method. I can open it directly and capture an idea or note with one tap, or use its share sheet to capture links.

It can be configured to append to an Obsidian “Daily Note” in an iCloud vault, which works great.

No third-party services FTW.

I'd like something like this for week-long+ road trips.

The day before we leave on a trip, I manually use 10-day forecasts from something like weather.com to help figure out what to pack and see if it's worth making scheduling adjustment. I'd like to know what the forecasted weather will be in each of the planned stops. High/low temperature and weather for each stop (we might be at a stop for many hours, so the weather can change), plus forecasts for any "overnight" cities, so we know what to expect while at the hotel/campground/etc.: at arrival time, the overnight conditions, and in the morning at expected departure time.

I'm more concerned about weather during planned stops than "weather on the way".

Something that integrates with https://furkot.com (the best road-trip planning tool ever!) would be great!
