If you want to learn more about Kronk and Yzma watch this live coding show recording. I walk through the Kronk architecture and write a sample Yzma program to show how the low level api works. #golang

v1.11.1 is the best version of Kronk yet!!! Lot's of code cleanup, better download management, token handling, metrics, and BUI changes. #golang

Thanks to Yzma, Kronk seems to be faster than Ollama in t/s.

Do you have an idle cluster? Can you spare a couple core-years?

Help me bruteforce some test vectors for RSA key generation edge cases!

Here are the instructions, it's just a matter of running a single self-contained cross-compilable Go binary that will report the results autonomously.

I just vibecoded with exe.dev and Opus 4.5 a backoffice for our FIPS 140 validation, with a separate view for the lab (where they can also upload test vectors), public links for clients, and guided scripts for testing.

I have not looked at the code once. It works great.

I am... processing this.

Oooh this is cool. Next weekend project will be making the backend of words.filippo.io (which actually uses @buttondown.com as its hidden CRM!) push site.standard.document records to my account on the @selfhosted.social PDS.

The folks behind GopherCon 2025 have kindly shared video recordings of our talks; here's mine on modernizer tools for Go. Special thanks to the amazing Stacy Potenza for turning my rapid limey nerd mumbling into comprehensible closed captions.
