One of the most underrated ways you can help Linux grow is by seeding Linux distro ISOs through torrents.

Even in 2026, not everyone gets access to reliable unlimited, high-speed internet connection. Torrents still do the job.

For sure, but the crux of it is employers thinking they are automating a job, when they aren't, they just fuck things up. The Doorman Fallacy in action - "oh I thought your job is coding, and this 'codes', don't you like its help?" No I don't because the manager's concept was flawed from the start.

I've always sucked at coding too much to even reach the point of needing help so it's fascinating to find that learning to code is more or less the same experience as being the one guy in the WC3 Battle dot net waiting room for DoTA who still has to download the map

The fact of the matter is that if we don't want people resorting to asking LLMs to solve their coding problems for them, we as a community have gotta get a LOT more willing to field questions whose answers we regard as painfully obvious.

If you do one security check this quarter, make it agent memory
In this interview with Help Net Security, Chris Latimer, CEO of Vectorize, talks about the security risks hiding in AI agent memory. He found coding agents storing API keys, credentials, and sensitive documents in plain text on developer machines and in cloud services. Latimer explains how attackers could plant poisoned memories through plugins, skills, and MCP integrations, often aimed at new coders who trust too easily. He covers why access control for agent memory lags …

I've never put in less effort to deliver high-quality working products, while at the same time having more unfinished side projects than ever. This post does a great job explaining why that schism can occur, since the side projects rarely reflect *my* care or values. seangoedecke.com/human-ai-par...
That doesn't mean I can leave the Al alone. Purely vibe-coding at work produces awful outputs. But they're not awful because they're bad code, they're awful because they're in bad taste: code that is not maintainable, that trades off important requirements in order to satisfy made-up ones, that contradicts the long- term strategy for a feature or service, and so on. In other words, my primary value is not that I help the Al write better code, it's that I align the Al with the values of my organization. Human-Al partnerships are for alignment, not capability. Frontier models are misaligned to the working programmer. They are obsessed with a set of behaviors that presumably satisty their RL grader: writing enormous block comments above functions, producing hundreds of useless unit tests, adding little bits of text all over websites they design, and so on. Working with agents is about noticing and wrestling with those behaviors. That's why my prompting advice is to explicitly talk about your high-level values: it's an attempt to head off obvious misalignment. Alignment is also more context- dependent than capability. Working code is working code, no matter what (which is partially why it's comparatively easy to train for). But aligning to a company's technical values is different from company to company, as any software engineer who's switched companies knows. It can almost feel like relearning the job. So training an aligned coding model doesn't just require hitting the exact right set of values, it requires creating a model that can adapt on the fly to a wide range of possible values.

AI and Data Centers are still horrible to the environment and take human jobs, yes. However, I ask as over decades I've asked to learn, asked for tips, with Quake mapping, coding, art, streaming, and usually most people do this "figure it out!" Which is offputting ASKING anyone for help.

The comparison to the Apple App Store is a bold claim, interested to see if Meta's approval process is more YC or Apple-esque.01%.
Meta Muse AI Connectors: The App Store for AI?
In this solo episode, I break down the huge business opportunity because Meta has opened Muse, its personal AI agent, to developers. You can now submit a connector, which lets Muse use your service when someone asks it for help, and I think this could be the app store moment for AI. I explain how a connector works, share four startup ideas you can build on one, and cover how to get customers beyond Meta's directory. I also show how I'd build a first version with a coding agent like Claude Code o
