Just published a Firefox extension to add a little feature I wanted: "Open Link in Unloaded Tab". https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/open-link-in-unloaded-tab/

I was surprised to learn that gzip streams encode which operating system did the compression. I built a little tool, "gzpeek", to inspect this metadata (and more): https://evanhahn.com/introducing-gzpeek/
GitHub’s downtime is bad, but uptime numbers can be misleading. It’s not as bad as it looks; more like a D than an F. https://evanhahn.com/in-defense-of-githubs-poor-uptime/
In 12 hours, I start playing The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons for charity. Tune in, donate, and see me embarrass myself! https://www.twitch.tv/zeldadungeon
Hope to see folks at #NoKings tomorrow https://www.nokings.org/
I like that my employer writes a blog post every time I finish a project https://ghost.org/changelog/improved-editor-for-welcome-emails/
Wrote a little command line tool to do (completely offline) translation: https://evanhahn.com/offline-cli-translation-with-translategemma-and-ollama/
My notes from April: feebly came to GitHub's defense (even though I don't like them), published a new version of a weirdo JavaScript package, and clicked a slew of links. https://evanhahn.com/notes-from-april-2026/
ELIZA, released in 1966, is a state-of-the-art language model. It offers zero-GPU inference with sub-millisecond semantic throughput, and scores highly on EQ measurements (emotional intelligence). I built llm-eliza for using it at the command line. https://evanhahn.com/llm-eliza/
Just published a short nonfiction story called "All tests pass". https://evanhahn.com/all-tests-pass-a-short-story/
@simon@fedi.simonwillison.net Per today's post on ELIZA: I published llm-eliza, a (satirical) plugin for llm that uses the ELIZA chatbot. As always, I love your blog!
Notes from March 2026: I wrote a blog post about errors, celebrated one year at Zelda Dungeon, and clicked some bleak links about AI. https://evanhahn.com/notes-from-march-2026/

@publius there's some discussion about both of these in the project's issues. I'm not sure!
Replying to
@sethmlarson At a glance, it looks like the extension can pre-vouch. In other words, it doesn't verify that the vouchee has a human.json.
Could be worth filing an issue: https://codeberg.org/robida/human.json/issues
Replying to
@atna Good question. I don't know.
My first thought is to add additional blocking to the site itself—just as you would without human.json. robots.txt for compliant scrapers, stronger defenses (proof-of-work, captchas, tarpits) for non-compliant ones.
Could be worth filing an issue, though I don't know if that's in scope for this project: https://codeberg.org/robida/human.json/issues
"[...] a year into Trump’s second term, as Palantir deepens its relationship with an administration many workers fear is wreaking havoc at home, employees are finally raising these concerns internally, as the US’s war on immigrants, war in Iran, and even company-released manifestos has forced them to rethink the role they play in it all." https://www.wired.com/story/palantir-employees-are-starting-to-wonder-if-theyre-the-bad-guys/

@wendyg@mastodon.xyz Small thing I noticed: your link to Peppers is invalid. (Hope this helps and is not an annoying nitpick!)
