Has anyone else noticed Gemini starting to send thinking tokens. As if, when it has been thinking from long enough, it will start forward the tokens as reguler tokens. This usually happens after Gemini says «Sorry, something went wrong. Please try your request again.» and you push back.

Google is phasing out POP3 and tell users to switch to the more modern IMAP.

Fun fact, POP3 (RFC-1081) is November 1998, whilst IMAP (RFC-1064) is June. So IMAP is the older one 😅

My son got the AirPods 4 this Christmas, the ones without noise cancelling. It seemed like a good idea since he does not want nor need NC.

Turns out, NC is the least of your problems. Never, under any circumstance buy the non-NC model. They should not exist.

Great talk from The Usual Suspects on their reverse-engineering, DSP-emulating software synthesizers (of which I use several!) www.youtube.com/watch?v=XM_q...

GitHub should add a 2025 recap, with things like:

"Angriest commit message"
"How often you added a separate commit just to fix linting"
"Number of curse words added to the codebase"
"What file caused the most bug reports"
"Number of abandoned side projects"

I wonder if the AI services will be faster tomorrow, given a lot of you having the day off. Maybe it’s a free for all for the rest of us

Pluribus on Apple TV is such a great show - infuriatingly difficult to recommend though since it's so easy to spoil the experience if you share too many details

Just watch it, it's great!

Google followed scaling laws and scaled up Gemini 3

OpenAI abandoned scaling laws for GPT-5

soon we’ll see who was right. OpenAI’s is surely cheaper to operate (well, that’s an assumption..)

If Gemini is significantly better, the market is going to shuffle around a bit

Awesome collection of hand made cheat sheets. Makes it a lot easier to visualize various file formats.
