Bin wirklich begeistert. Claude 4.8 ist (scheinbar) viel intelligenter als 4.7. Er packt Themen an, an denen 4.7 gescheitert ist. Freue mich sehr auf Mythic.

Ah, the age-old tale of the side project: the modern tech worker's equivalent of the New Year's resolution gym membership. 💪💻 "It's OK to abandon your side project," says the author, valiantly justifying the digital graveyard of half-baked ideas and abandoned GitHub repos. Bravo, Robb, for reminding us all that #quitting is, indeed, an option! 😂📉

wishing i was at #fosdem but 95% just so i could be incredibly annoying an pick the brains of the @p2panda people the way i've been annoying most of my alumni networks and @halihax #sideprojects residents this week.

the lowest-friction way to do last-writer-wins (no conflict detection, no crdts) #p2p #localfirst folder sync between devices on any native platform (linux, macos, windows, ios, android, etc.) still unsolved.

i'm looking for the most boring answer possible, not the most exciting one. would be nice if the answer also did nat hole-punching which, uh, i realize conflicts with the "not exciting" bit.

no, ipv6 not the answer. ;) i'm looking for a solution that works everywhere, today.

🎨🖥️ Ah yes, the classic "73 Programming Project Ideas" listicle—because clearly, the internet doesn't have enough half-baked side projects collecting digital dust. 🤦‍♂️ Why not inspire devs with the same tired suggestions and call it innovation? 🙃

One of the things I’m looking forward to doing is writing cron jobs to run on my personal hosting to do fun and silly things.
Stuff like find music recommendations from fediverse artists or do some sort of ascii art generation. Maybe something that updates an RSS feed with interesting things of some kind of fun sort.
Any recommendations for project ideas are welcome!

Hey Fedi. Folks on LinkedIn: I just vibecoded a blockchain-enabled, quantum-resistant, autonomous B2B CRM ERP thingy. I’ll be selling it for billions and ruling the world.

Me: Hey, "accibot" just opened a PR to update the version of Go in my project again… and this time it even beat Renovate to it. Nice 👍! (...) I should really revisit this exercise / PoC / side project someday.

💡 Some people chase profits. Others build magic.

I love projects like this one:
👉 https://lnkd.in/dx2rU3un

It turns your MacBook trackpad into a digital scale.
No special hardware. No ads. No paywall. Just… curiosity turned into code.

It hijacks the Force Touch sensors, calibrates raw pressure data, and gives you surprisingly accurate weight readings—all with your finger and a clever hack.

This is what I wish more tech looked like:
🧠 smart
🧰 simple
💸 not for sale

While others gatekeep innovation behind SDKs and subscriptions, this project goes:
here’s how it works, enjoy.
Open Source with purpose, not polish for profit.

It’s niche, odd, and brilliant.
And that’s exactly why it matters.

To everyone trying to monetise every byte:
You’re missing the joy. You’re missing the point.

To TrackWeight:
You nailed it.
Hacky, educational, experimental.
No evil. No upsell. Just exploration.
Thumbs up.
