Author here. If you have agentic processes that you find really useful, I'd love to hear about them. Additionally, if there are any questions, I can field them here.

EDIT: Happy New Year!

From the status page:

archlinux.org currently only available via ipv6 due to DDoS

Our main website is currently under attack which causes is to only be available via IPv6. As we need help from our hosting provider due to the nature of the attack and support times are rather limited over the holidays this could take a while to resolve. Aside from that: Merry Christmas to everyone but the attackers (if you happen to celebrate it) :)

I see what you did there

The reason Bottles/WINE doesn't work with USB devices like that is likely because WINE isn't supposed to support kernel level device access. It's for running programs and just fakes enough for that to work.

I am only just learning this space but I believe you can set udev rules to get some USB devices working that might otherwise be failing. Worth a tinker.

Works pretty well for gdzig

Hi! Cool to see you commenting here, great work on gdzig btw :)

Thanks! Who knew I would be known for that. Not me!

Since no one has asked. What is the tech stack?

From the Discord:

> It's a compose multiplatform[1] app, and it's templated-output-parsed rather than Rust-based.

interesting, would love to read more about the experience of using compose multiplatform for this

It was really great! The thing is, kind of like the Flutter ecosystem, it's as good as its third party libraries. This app is mostly a very advanced UI on top of the CLI with not a whole lot else - I think maybe the only 3rd party library I'm using is the file picker. But for other apps that might have more complex use cases there may be more of a struggle there.

The framework itself is great.

thanks! I'll have to play with it sometime, didn't find flutter that great on non-mobile platforms.

I don't have an official diagnosis, but I have markers for ADHD and Autism as suggested by a professional. It's quite expensive to pursue these as an adult, so I haven't done it yet.

That being said, I found several of these situations triggering. I am definitely a high masking ND, so I can deal with much more than what this game allows.

40 y/o. Often skips breakfast. Puts in AirPods on noise-cancellation mode with nothing playing. Wakes up at 2am with a song repeating in my head making it so I can't sleep.

Fantastic article. I'm always looking for better ways to work with agents. I am personally using Claude Code, and want to try some more YOLO type stuff.

My problem is I often give it too much to do. I'm usually overly optimistic about how effective it can be.

I have found Sonnet 4.5 to be quite the improvement over Sonnet 4 however.

I have been prototyping a local-only social media manager initially targeting the game development community. I am sick of all the subscription only platforms such as buffer, hootsuite etc.

Initially I have been looking at Mastodon and Bluesky since they have sane APIs.

The plan is to make it so that you can sync your data folder either manually (e.g. dropbox, or sneakernet if you want) or a via a basic cheap data plan.

I was worried for a minute that the implementation wasn't production ready. Thankfully, Claude mentioned it right at the end.
