Are Schools Becoming Obsolete?

For centuries, education meant one teacher and thirty students moving at the same pace. AI just challenged that assumption. If every child can have a personal tutor, what exactly is the classroom for?

The Terminal Emulator Race on macOS Has a New Winner.

Apple makes beautiful software. Except Terminal. After years of using iTerm2, I went looking for something better. I tried many options, but two stood out: Cmux and Ghostty. One of them finally convinced me to switch.

Markdown has been quietly sitting in the corner since 2004. You saw it in GitHub READMEs and the occasional piece of documentation, but most people never knew it existed. Now, thanks to AI, Markdown is finally becoming what it always should have been: a text-based PDF. The reason is simple - LLMs love it. And if you’ve ever tried getting a clean .doc file out of one, you already know why.

Bruno vs Postman: The API Rebellion Begins.

Postman had a good run. But somewhere along the way, an API client became a “platform”, then a workspace, then probably a lifestyle choice.
