for those tracking John Carmack's descent into right wing total moral disorientation, he's now at "Palmer Luckey should buy Wired and do to it what Elon Musk did to Twitter".
he's full fash at this point. totally gonna deliver AGI by 2030 though.
increasingly disgusting that he named his shitass company after Commander Keen, a joyful little video game from before he became a millionaire and was empowered to become his worst self.
Hot take: The Artemis livestream is a damning indictment of modern computing devices. It seems like half the radio chatter is troubleshooting email delivery problems, confusing user interfaces, or devices not booting or connecting. Literal astronauts with years of training can’t make our stuff work.

This comment sums up why I’m so tired of programming in 2026 pretty well

Running Podman  in production for years now, and I don't miss the Docker daemon one bit.

I just published a deep dive on managing OCI containers the Unix way: daemonless, rootless, and natively integrated with systemd via Quadlets.

I cover:
- Real secrets management
- Auto-updates via systemd timers
- The Docker compatibility layer

This is the guide I wish I had when making the switch.

Podman in Production: Quadlets, Secrets, Auto-Updates, and Docker Compatibility

An opinionated production-ops guide to Podman on Linux servers - why I prefer it over Docker, how Quadlets replace Compose files, and practical patterns from real deployments including secrets mana...

Ever wanted to use your phone's NFC reader on Linux? Now you can β€” right from GNOME! I built a minimal NFC app using neard and D-Bus β€” no hacks, no proprietary drivers. Just run the daemon, tap a tag, and it works. πŸ‘‰ https://gitlab.gnome.org/dh/gnfc/ 1/2 #nfc #LinuxMobile #MobileLinux #Mobian #NixOS #postmarketOS

It's no secret that I've been struggling, and my therapist said I need to find things to keep me busy, so I created the @cdnspace Artemis II dashboard.

I reverse-engineered the Unity Engine powering the NASA AROW visualization and found an absolute treasure trove of data to display.

Little did I expect that it's now being seen by anywhere from 200 to 600 people at any given time with 130,000 people having looked at it in the last 24 hours. People are even building projects around my API.

Yesterday, I received a message on LinkedIn from someone working in Mission Control in Houston... and they're using my dashboard! He even sent me a photo, but I can't share it until after the crew has splashed down.

Mind blown, and an absolute pick-me-up. The best part? It's being served from my basement.
