📑 Programming Still Sucks. — Writing
I'm at a birthday party, and while most people here also work in tech, there's always a Guy with a Real Job. You know, a physical job, building some or other thing people need. And this Guy always asks some variant of the same question: aren't you worried AI is taking your job? I glance around and see a few faces turning around toward us, rolling their eyes ever so slightly before returning to their previous conversation. Yes, this question again.

📑 The Boring Internet | Terry Godier

I enjoyed reading James' post on the Indiewebcamp in Düsseldorf: https://jamesg.blog/2026/04/30/indiewebcamp-dusseldorf-2026
I also highly recommend checking the linked meeting notes on the wiki for website ideas: lots of interesting notions about what to put on your homepage, private posts etc. Seems like it was a great meetup.

📑 The Boy That Cried Mythos: Verification is Collapsing Trust in Anthropic | flyingpenguin
"The flagship demonstration document turns out to be like the ending of the Wizard of Oz, a sorry disappointment about a model weaponizing two bugs that a different model found, in software the vendor had already patched, in a test environment with the browser sandbox and defense-in-depth mitigations stripped out."
"The model is not the story. A cartel is the story."

📑 THE MOON · brennan.day
Born on April 13th, 26 years after Apollo 13's failure, I explore my personal connection to the Moon as Artemis II astronauts journey toward Her. The Moon has scientific importance, cultural naming traditions, religious significance across civilizations, linguistic ties to lunacy and menstruation, and is the first poem. The Moon unites humanity across time and space as we return to Her once again.

📑 Hosting a Snowflake Proxy - matduggan.com
In the nightmarish world of 2026 it can be difficult to know how to help at all. There are too many horrors happening to quickly to know where one can inject even a small amount of assistance. However I wanted to quickly post about something I did that was easy, low impact and hopefully helps a tiny fraction of a fraction of a percent of people.

📑 Your Duolingo Is Talking to ByteDance: Cracking the Pangle SDK's Encryption
When you open Duolingo to practice Spanish, BeReal to share a photo, or Character.AI to chat with a bot, you probably don't expect your battery level, storage capacity, and internal IP address to be sent to ByteDance, the company behind TikTok.
But that's exactly what's happening. And the encryption "protecting" this data carries its own key in every message.
