This morning I ran 5km! Outside, with hills, non-stop. My first 5k in a long long time, my first ever where I felt I could keep going afterwards.

The shoes I bought at the start of this running journey have officially worn through, but they got me to that 5km.

An excellent position relayed by @Mer__edith about the #privacy and #security challenges of genetic #AI. https://mamot.fr/@n1k0/114756259328175889

What is the root¹ issue with agentic AI? by @Mer__edith

¹ no pun intended I swear

Boost if you're old enough to know why I have one of these on my computer desk.
I fucking LOVE AnyType. It’s so so good. I just wish it had support for inline comments and toggle headers (though it does support toggle blocks). But at least for now, it satiates my #Notion cravings. I loved notion, but I didn’t love being a prisoner to their privacy nightmare and AI training bullshit.

The reason this zine is called "The Secret Rules of the Terminal" is that I learned more useful things while writing this zine than when writing any other zine, even though I've been using the terminal every day for 20 years.

It really left me feeling like the terminal is full of hidden secrets -- because "the terminal" is made up of so many different pieces, there's no single terminal manual you can read!

Here's the table of contents (which as a bonus shows the components of the terminal!)

@b0rk I've used the terminal for a long time too and know quite a few of its secrets, but back when you did the (a?) survey a while back I went to answer it fully expecting to learn some new secrets and was happy to indeed learn.
@b0rk purchased. Thank you for your hard work on this!
@b0rk congrats on the zine. Can't wait to read!
@b0rk it looks so cool 😎

@b0rk I plan in the next few months to resume working on my Terminedia ASCII art/ Terminal framework.

I feel confident the information in this zine will teach me a lot and allow me to include some nice features and behaviors there
