In my ultimate yak shaving quest I started working on a shell. So far nothing new. I also added a file manager that is built into the shell or can be run standalone. Here is the thing I learned so far (beside how easy it is to mess up a terminal when putting it into "raw mode"): Having a single binary is pretty neat. I can scp to any server and have not just my shell with a few handy built in commands but also the file manager ready to go!
I have been a gamer for about three decades. Obviously I started very casual, as all kids do, and very quickly found interest in many different genres. I actually got pretty good at some of them if I may say so myself. And I have done pretty much everything related to gaming, from conventions, to helping organize LAN parties, to leading a clan and a guild. It has truly been a wild, joyful and fun ride.
I have been using my personal AI assistant for a few weeks and it is working really well, after I figured out which models to deploy, how to exactly words the various tools and forcing at least one tool call for most interactions. There are some smaller annoyances, but overall things are working mostly as expected.
If this title does not make any sense to you at all that is fine. At the end of this post it will. Mostly. Maybe.
When I am traveling I really enjoy traveling as light as possible. This means either bringing a laptop when I know I got some work to do or my iPad when I want to relax and disconnect. I prefer reading on an iPad over a laptop or a phone and I still have enough screen real estate to write a few emails if needed or SSH into my workstation or a server in case of an emergency.
