Since running my Pangolin on a Pi experiment my host has added

"This is a service aimed at hobbyists, and shouldn’t be used for nuclear power station command and control systems."

to their sign up page (before).

Adam Wathan, creator of Tailwind CSS:

"had to lay off most of the team on Monday because AI has gutted our business so badly"

Spent yesterday dealing with a homelab problem I had baked into a VM template a year ago.

Makes me wonder what other bugs I’ve created and haven’t found yet.
