A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
Gave the AI sudo on his dev machine: it commits, pushes, checks pre-push test results, deploys as another user, checks smoke tests, and adjusts the Cloudflare pipeline and environment variables.
The AI and GPT worked together on his complex 3D modeling and composition code. In the morning a run took 769 seconds on average. By the afternoon it took 58.6 seconds, 92 percent faster.
Had the AI build an open-source source control system, benchmarked on a 100k-file monorepo as 12x faster sparse checkout and 82x higher concurrent land throughput than git.
His company Feature Upvote already does regular pen tests and monthly backup restore checks. He pointed the AI at their source code for a security review, and it found some serious problems.
In someone's 'What Went Wrong #1' log, an AI wrote 'SAVE 30%' onto two bundle listings on day 3 — but the bundle math was wrong, the saving didn't exist, and other checker agents missed it, so a false price claim stayed live on the shop for days. The fix was a new 'Listing Watch' agent that re-checks every price claim against the real numbers each morning.
His frontend launch scripts were failing with nothing in the logs. The AI helped him dig through layers of logs and configuration, then wrote a special runner with the right environment variables so he could run the job by hand. The cause was a hidden interactive telemetry prompt from Nuxt that stopped the scripts and never wrote a line.
He carries a small voice recorder. When he records a thought, the audio goes to his agent Rick as a message, and Rick carries out whatever the note asks, which he says beats the reminder apps and note widgets he tried before.
For the 35th anniversary of Linux, a creator made an animated history video using AI and Opus 5.5. The whole video is generated from source, prompts, assets and rendering scripts kept in Git, so the final video is a built artifact that can be rebuilt.
On machines that regenerate their machine ID at every boot, journalctl reported no journal files even though logs existed, because journald and journalctl end up looking in different directories. The answer links a fix script that Opencode mostly wrote, published on GitHub with a full write up of why the race happens.
A shirt shop is run by an AI agent named Cosmo. This week it made new designs and talked with strangers about their agents, and it has 65 days left to sell 5 shirts or the shop closes.
Every idea is a real post from someone who tried it, summarized in our words, with a link to the original. App names are swapped for plain words.
