Experimental GCC backend in Rust now fully bootstraps GCC! Can we FINALLY stop calling it the "GNU C Compiler"? 🤭 Even my CS teachers still do... (it's actually the GNU Compiler Collection!)

RAM prices skyrocketing due to AI demand. DDR5 16GB chips up ~300% in 3 months ($6.84 → $27.20). DDR4 rising too. Stock up now or wait it out?

CS is just linear algebra and boolean algebra, repeated endlessly with different syntax.

Loving Affinity for image editing. It's not actually new, but ever since Canva bought it, it's free and snappier than Photoshop!

38% of Stanford undergrads now registered as disabled (up 2x post-COVID, mostly anxiety/ADHD). That's 1 in 3 getting extra test time + priority dorms. Harvard ~20%, community colleges ~3%.

Anthropic acquires Bun – the fast JS runtime powering Claude Code. First acquisition for them. Interesting for AI and web dev.

aaaand Claude Opus 4.5 is the new best model. Holy hell, and it's not just the best at coding. It's crushing agents, reasoning, and everything else. Anthropic's redefining AI frontiers. 🤯

Affinity's native Linux support might be the final nail in Adobe's coffin... With DaVinci Resolve, Blender, Darktable, and more, it's time to switch to Linux if you haven't already!

Ever build a quick software tool to speed up part of your main project, but then end up wanting to turn it into the full side project?
Happening to me right now 😅
What should I do? 😭😭

France is threatening GrapheneOS with arrests and server seizures for refusing backdoors.
Privacy is essential, and this is ridiculous.
Open-source projects shouldn't fear state intimidation.
Stand with privacy-focused tech.

nzb360 and Telegram are two of the best examples of pristine user experience and interface on Android. Take a look at those if you need ideas or inspiration.

Winget now has the vast majority of apps I need on a daily basis. No need to install Chocolatey anymore when I'm on a Windows machine.

Yoo BTC just dipped below $90K for the first time in months, wiping out its 2025 gains so far.
Down about 2% YTD now, with the price hovering around $88,700 amid some market jitters.
Buying the dip or waiting it out? 📉

Please, never just "vibe code" the start of a project. Use AI to help with the structure and architecture, but don't let it write all the code – you'll end up with an unmaintainable, inconsistent mess.

Aaaand back to Obsidian I am, now that it has Bases. I want to make it flexible and extensive so that I never have to move out of it again in my life 🤭

Markdown and front matter are everything you need for a good note-taking system.

Notion is one of the last daily apps I use that's not self-hosted. It's about time I find a solid replacement for note-taking and task planning.
I'm currently trying out AFFiNE and Obsidian to see if they fit the bill.
Really hoping the new Obsidian Bases feature turns out great!

I urge you to self-host as much as you possibly can of the products and services you use.
You'll feel a real sense of relief, knowing your data is truly yours, and privacy feels a whole lot better that way.

Java often gets dismissed by new devs as 'enterprise bloat,' but let's be real: it's rock-solid.
Insanely extensive with tools for everything, and cross-platform like no other.
Been around forever for a reason. If you're building scalable stuff, give it another look – it's still great!

I hate instant messaging for anything that's not urgent.
We should get back to using email more often, where I only check it once or twice a day.
Non-urgent notifications still pull my focus, make me grab my phone, and totally destroy my flow state...
Yet we've normalized it.

Just use Postgres for everything.
It's versatile, reliable, handles it all, and there's an extension for basically anything you need.

Alright, I'm convinced. Immich is better than Google Photos and every other photo app. The AI features are GREAT, PRIVATE, and ACTUALLY USEFUL!
