FYI you can use OpenPost if you know at least one of these languages!
But yeah if you're reading this post you probably know English so just stick with it 🤣
Invest time in sharpening your tools and improving your workflow. Even if it doesn’t seem worth the effort at first, remember: it compounds over the months and years you do this.
Yes, configuring my NixOS machine wastes more time than it will ever earn me.
Yes, I’m going to keep doing it anyway.
I prompted a custom TUI to manage my NixOS + nix-darwin machines into existence.
Rebuilds, diffs, updates, formatting, linting, secrets, and cleanup - all in one place.
Because "just run the right nix command" eventually becomes its own workflow 😅
Check it out @ github:rodrgds/nix-config
The best documentation is the kind you write for yourself.
Not polished wikis or README files... just notes on what you did, why it broke, how you fixed it.
Future you will thank past you for those messy notes way more than any official docs.
Learning Vim motions is worth it even if you don't use Vim.
VSCode has Vim mode. IntelliJ has IdeaVim. Even browser extensions exist.
Once you're comfortable moving around without a mouse, going back feels painfully slow.
Personal agents with custom skills are way more useful than generic ChatGPT interfaces.
Everyone gets the same ChatGPT. Your personal agent should know your tools, your CLIs, your services, your setup.
The memory stuff is cool but the real power is in the skills. An agent that can actually use your stack beats a general one every time.
Xubuntu on a server is actually kind of perfect.
XFCE is lightweight enough that the GUI overhead is minimal, but you get the benefit of just opening apps when you need them.
Obsidian, Chrome, tools that need a display... they just work. No SSH + X forwarding nonsense.
Sometimes the simple solution is the right one.
Missing a day doesn't mean things must spiral. Don't let them.
Perplexity is quietly building a really good UX around really good memory, connector, skills, projects, "brains" primitives...
They might just win the long game tbh! While no one is paying attention man!
God Qwen models just think for so long it's so annyoing 🥲
It's these little features that you don't even remember (or ever knew) existed that, when they happen, make you go, "Yeah, this is so cool!"
DevEnv and nix-shell are those tools you didn’t know you needed, but once you figure them out, you simply can’t live without. Seriously.
They enable reusable development environments and are incredibly useful for any team; or even just for yourself if you work across multiple computers.
The Navier Stokes problem no longer appears as unsolved in the Clay Mathematics Institute website. However, it also doesn't appear as a solved one...
What is going on here?
Brave being able to instantly open a window behind Tor is HUUUUGE
I had this post scheduled but... Turns out it won't be needed as we've now reached >500 ⭐ stars and >10 🥸 contributors.
We're still not stopping until we overtake OpenClaw 🦞 😎
I hate it when I think I'm so smart that I can avoid some of the bad UX other apps/websites have, and wonder why they were stupid enough to do it that way, only to realize a few days later exactly why they did it and end up doing basically the same thing 🤦
Noooo... Shopify were like the biggest supporters of React Native!
FlashList, React Native Skia, Restyle, Polaris Viz Native... Really unfortunate that just using more tokens to solve your problems will be the solution most companies adopt 😑
Learning is yet to take a complete revamp, TBH. With AI, you can learn so much more in so much less time. It's basically a teacher with infinite patience.
I just don't think society has noticed the value of this yet, but it WILL happen.
The future of AI agents isn't everyone using the same ChatGPT interface.
It's personal agents that know your setup. Your tools, your services, your preferences.
I've been building custom OpenClaw skills for my stack and it's night and day compared to generic assistants. This is where things get actually useful.
OpenPost now has themes!
Make your experience truly yours... Just please don't make a McDonalds theme 🤣
remove.bg is shutting down.
If you just want to remove a background without signing up for another thing, I made a free one in OpenPost.
Runs in your browser.
No account.
No watermark.

Your first self-hosted project will probably break.
You'll mess up permissions, forget to open a port, misconfigure something.
That's fine. Breaking things is how you learn.
Just make sure you have backups before you start experimenting.
DeepSeek V4 Pro, Kimi K2.6, and GLM 5.1…
Open-source AI is approaching frontier-level performance really, really fast. Not like I’m going to run any of these at home, but at least prices will be set by the market and not a single company.

Trap AI scrapers/agents in an infinite slop loop. Actually a good idea tbf
OpenClaw is insanely good at research and figuring things out if you give it enough tools and keep prompts short.
Better than most pre-built agents honestly.
Only bottleneck right now is inference cost. Once that drops and I can run better models without going broke, this gets infinitely more useful.
I've finally reached a stage where I am more productive with my Pi setup than with Codex. I can finally rest 🫣
There will always be a "rice your own linux". Pi feels like it right now for AI agents. Pretty unproductive all things considered. But it does FEEL good haha.
I just realized... LinkedIn is basically the only social media that doesn't have ads in the timeline 😮
Finally self-hosting my own FOSS social media scheduler. More updates are on the way; it’s still in the early alpha stage but already fully functional for all my basic needs.
I've never made any real specific effort to improve OpenPost's PageSpeed results and yet they're pretty good...
Just let the clanker do his thing 😆
I just realized Elon is competing in social media (X), automobiles and energy (Tesla), AI (xAI), telecommunications (Starlink), aerospace (SpaceX) and neurotechnology (Neuralink) and winning/top 5 in basically all of them... Such an inspiring entrepreneur man
Configure your OpenPost account within Executor.sh as easy as 1-2-3, with our OAuth screen 😃
Now your agent can post on your behalf!
You can just FEEL how much Elon wants this to be true and I'm guessing xAI makes a better-than Stockfish/Leela bot this year.
The best developer tools don’t make me feel powerful.
They make me feel less interrupted.
Just found an unofficial NotebookLM Python API that lets you interact with it from CLI and agents.
Been using NotebookLM a ton lately. Being able to script it, download podcasts automatically, hook it into agent skills... yeah this is going to be really useful.
