Oh, fabulous! Another #GitHub repo promising to revolutionize the world with "Rust implementation of the #Zstd Seekable Format" ๐Ÿ˜ด. Because, clearly, there's a massive audience just dying for a more complex way to compress their cat videos in #Rust. ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿš€

๐Ÿš€ Wow, someone invented a new acronym!

Preventing Flash of Incomplete Markdown when streaming AI responses

Youโ€™ve heard of Flash of Unstyled Content (FOUC) before, where you see unstyled HTML appear, then the CSS loads and the browser suddenly updates to display the correct style. A similar problem occurs when streaming AI responses and there's a simple solution for it.

What's up with this "Please add me on WhatsApp" robocall spam?

Over the last few weeks, I've received several calls which all have the same modus operandi. A disembodied robotic voice tries to get me to connect on WhatsApp. https://shkspr.mobi/blog/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/add-me-on-whatsapp.mp4 Some of the voices are reasonable facsimiles of human voices (like the above) and some are just garbage. ๐Ÿ”Š ๐Ÿ’พ Download this audio file.

Ah, "The Copilot Delusion"โ€”a riveting tale of two sentient beings arm wrestling over a keyboard, as one programmer is reborn as a mindless parrot ๐Ÿคช.
