Look, I get it. It’s Q3 2026, and we should expect that everyone is utilizing AI at SOME point in their process (sourcing ideas, creating outlines, refining prose, etc.).
Should we?

If you want to use your own power and not give it to the grid, then don't use a grid tie inverter. Get some batteries and only accept power from the grid, never feed back into it. If you're feeding into the communal system, expect the rules to not always be exactly what you want. Don't we all want people to use clean daytime solar power instead of dirty fossil fuel-based nighttime power?
I will continue to pray for Slate to not completely suck. There's a "smart" module that has a cellular modem, but it's something you have to opt into and pay for it.

Man, they need to hold another vote to get the verbiage of this cleared up.
The title of this post is incorrect. They are not banning cryptocurrency projects. See this message for why: https://codeberg.org/Codeberg/org/pulls/1254#issuecomment-19923979
edit: man, I have no idea anymore.
What do you mean? His hair is glorious, especially for someone who is 66 years old.
The speed and ease at which LLMs allow you to generate code is a bug, not a feature in my opinion. In my org, a group of 3 very junior engineers wrote a 5k line shell script for building k8s clusters according to our business specs and it's fucking awful. The actual time to get it out the door was short, but now it's basically impossible to change it without fucking up like 20 different things. The fucking thing will randomly quit because the shit ass LLM thinks set -e is a good thing to use, and it's full of unused variables everywhere. I had to add a feature to it (which is how I learned of its existence), and I spent a miserable week just reading the entire fucking thing so I could ensure that my change wouldn't cause an oil refinery in the North Sea to explode due to a butterfly-effect series of bullshit.
The frustration and toil you feel as a software dev is a feature. If something is making you mad and is taking forever to write, that's a sign you probably need to change your approach. If you're using an LLM to write a bunch of boilerplate, why not just eliminate the boilerplate or like, make a factory to spit out a bunch of it or something? Your discomfort is a powerful tool and you are not best served by ignoring it. Those junior devs would have written something much better if they had been forced to experience the true toil and suffering of writing a 5k line shell script.
I use one of those every night and they're awful. I buy them 5 at a time because they're not very durable, and you end up with this especially irritating tangle of cables.
