Reading @Aaron van Wirdum's book now. The stuff on the precursors to public key cryptography is fascinating, about Diffie and Hellman and Merkle communicating with each other about their earliest attempts to solve this problem

Giving up X for at least a couple of weeks I might check once a day to see if I have an interesting notification, like an interesting reply to something I said Prior to summer 2025, I had avoided X for about three years. Maybe I should do that again!

While I've been using nvim + opencode for a while now (thanks to a post by @Egge IIRC), I only just this evening integrated git into it properly, in order to make it easy to view the changes made the AI and then challenge the AI about specific changes I'm using three nvim plugins: gitsigns, telescope, and I've configured 'diffview.nvim' but haven't really used it much yet

I first read this YouTube preview as saying: "Stop trying to make Luke's Consensus change happen" I guess I'm spending too much time on X arguing about the fork

Now, I sometimes use 'Gemini Flash 3' for planning and 'GPT-5.2 Codex' for building. This is only because, in Opencode, I've noticed that Gemini kinda crashes in build mode; it's works for some time and then just stops in the middle of the task. Maybe just a funny detail in how Opencode is integrated Anyway, in practice, I'm still mostly using my Claude subscription inside Opencode, but that's cheap. But I like the ideas Gemini has for improving the codebase

Asking AI the important questions: (inspired by seeing this game in 'Hackers', the 1995 movie)
