"The game" except you lose every time you recognise that bland black lettering of GPT image generation in some picture on the internet

My superpower/achilles heel is that I can only write in the same florid prose that I use when speaking out loud so I will never be able to accidentally sound like ChatGPT

I learnt only this week that you can install a special Bluetooth Log profile on an iPhone and trigger an analytics dump that includes full HCI logs. Incredibly useful for debugging weird stuff that's invisible at the high level Core Bluetooth API.

Ah yeah, it sucks when there’s a “change in the radio frequency”. Always makes a mess. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-05-26/technical-issues-force-cancellation-vivid-drone-show-monday/106721200

Awesome, the min-publish-age #rustlang RFC was merged last week, for protecting yourself against freshly published malware updates. Always thought this was a very sensible idea. https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs//3923-cargo-min-publish-age.html

Past me thought it would be "good for consistency" if the test and prod Postgres servers used the same creds and DB name. Today I started using the same machine for dev and prod and you can guess the rest. (No, no important data even in prod, just slow to recalculate - I would've had a backup otherwise.)
