Built a MCP CLI server to look up GitHub Action input parameters.

Now I can just ask my agents to check if we have the right ones configured and the quickly access it.

TIL iOS simulators on MacBooks can use the UIImagePickerController with source type camera, but when running on a Mac Mini it will crash the app with "source type 1 is unavailable"

Just added another Hetzner dedicated server to my k3s CI/CD cluster.... 32 vCPU / 128 GB total for only ~$ 80 / mo 🤯

Is it weird that I really want the bufo.fun Slack emojis available in WhatsApp too?

Proud to share that my first blog post on the Sentry blog is now live! 😊

It covers my work on investigating and improving Session Replay performance on iOS, with a focus on making it less disruptive— especially on older devices.

Good news everyone! Google Cloud might be down, but my Raspberry Pi is still up and running (most off the time) 🙌🏼

Downloaded Snapchat again after couple of years. "Happy" to see how many people uploaded my phone number from their contacts 🙃

My end-to-end tests running on GitHub Actions were failing because service containers were not ready in time.

Built a simple wait action for MongoDB, NATS, Kafka, PostgreSQL, Redis and Android Emulators.

Let me know what you think.

Did an experiment to see if I can solve a hard problem using Cursor.

Gave it all the context I have available and a command to test the code.
Expected it to iterate faster until tests pass.
Eventually it just started to do formatting changes.

Wow, props to Duolingo. I never even thought of putting a label under the dynamic island so it isn’t shown in app but visible in screenshots.

I am about to apply for a job at Apple as an Xcode Engineer just to fix pairing with Apple Watch. I do not need it often, but when I do, Xcode is not able to find the device.

Seems like ChatGPT 4o is not feeling the MCP hype yet 😂

It still fascinates me that you can pull off stuff like executing code in an app before the app life cycle even starts.

App Store status notifications in Slack feels so much more streamlined than emails.
