A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
He found a 24 chapter site on CAD history that would once have taken days of fiddling to convert by hand. Working with GPT for a couple of hours, he turned it into a clean offline EPUB for his phone, with linked footnotes and captioned illustrations.
An AI-designed split keyboard, built and now on his desk.
Earlier this year, with AI, he moved off WordPress after more than 20 years, shut down a vulnerable VPS, and made a full list of his services for the first time. Last night he had the AI check that list again.
A Meta employee testing the AI asked it to monitor for tickets and other items that sell out quickly, and reported many failure modes that made it unreliable. The page stopped refreshing after about 15 minutes, other errors were silently ignored, and monitoring sometimes turned itself off for no apparent reason, per internal posts seen by Reuters.
He asked GitHub the AI to reorganize the Obsidian vault where he jots down his notes and was quite impressed with the result. The AI did the work using Obsidian bases and the obsidian.md CLI.
He wanted a control monitor to fit under his screen and follow the angle and shape of his Stream Deck. He uses AI with reference photos to get the base shape, adjusts sizes after measuring with a caliper, printed a quick baseplate to test the fit, and fixed a 1mm clearance problem with the lock after more measuring.
Had the AI reverse engineer 3D Space Cadet Pinball using Ghidra and radare2 and port it to Rust and Bevy; playable after 2 hours, plus an extra prompt for MIDI music.
His AI agent got a modified fork of OpenEPaperLink running on a hacked 2.6 inch e-paper price tag within a few days. The agent then took a photo of the tag through a webcam to check its own work.
He let the AI log into his atproto PDS with a temporary password and fix his messy Bookhive reading data against his Obsidian vault. Ten minutes later, everything was in sync.
After a fake Cloudflare page tricked him into infecting his own laptop, a man first tried AI, which refused the job. He then ran an agent on DeepSeek v4 Flash through opencode, and it did the full reverse engineering and forensics and deleted every trace of the malware.
