Did Semgrep Just Get a Lot More Interesting?
Image by Annie Ruygt This bit by Geoffrey Huntley is super interesting to me and, despite calling out that LLM-driven development agents like Cursor have something like a 40% success rate at actually building anything that passes acceptance criteria, makes me think that more of the future of our field belongs to people who figure […]

If you ever stacked cups in gym class, blame my dad
The boxes came from Tokyo: first by tanker, then overland via container truck from a Pacific port, across the Continental Divide, and finally backed into a driveway at the end of a cul-de-sac in a south Denver suburban enclave. This was a neighborhood with Razor scooters dumped in trimmed front lawns. Where family walks with […]
We were wrong about GPUs
Image by Annie Ruygt We’re building a public cloud, on hardware we own. We raised money to do that, and to place some bets; one of them: GPU-enabling our customers. A progress report: GPUs aren’t going anywhere, but: GPUs aren’t going anywhere. A couple years back, we put a bunch of chips down on the […]

Show HN: OpenSCAD configurable calendar 3D model
I love creating configurable generic models using OpenSCAD, and this is the most complex one I’ve created to date—an easy-to-configure calendar using some clever algorithms to render correctly. OpenSCAD is truly amazing in a way that no other 3D modeling software is, including those with limited scripting abilities. You can implement standard algorithms from general-purpose […]
