This week
- I almost ordered parts for a circuit that would have destroyed itself the instant I powered it on. Instead, an LLM caught the critical flaw in my design, saving me time and money. While I regularly see value in using LLMs in my coding projects, this is the first time I have seen...

- Just heard the news from the WULFF Den Podcast that Epilogue has released pre-orders for the next ROM backup tool in their “Operator” series for the Super NES (SNES) and Super Famicom called the “SN Operator”. The SN Operator pre-order costs $60 USD plus shipping. This is great...
- Last year my roommate and I found an old original iMac G3 outside our apartment building. It has some interesting early 2000s/late 90s style websites and files on it that I want to preserve (and hope to share here soon!). But I realized getting files off of it wouldn't be easy....

- I’m going to call this from the start. The Go60 is the best travel-friendly split keyboard, perhaps even the best all-around split keyboard, you can buy right now. I’m no MoErgo fanboy – in my review of their Glove80 I was pretty clear that there were areas I felt the Glove80...
- If you want to take some first steps into the mad rabbit hole of ergonomic keyboards, I can recommend the Kinesis mWave. Let me give you a rundown of the features, and then I’ll get to my thoughts on it. Features The mWave is a ergonomic mechanical keyboard that will set you...

- The same people behind Project Kamp also run a project called Precious Plastic which is an open source plastic recycling platform. As most are well aware, plastic is a major problem polluting our land, our beaches, our rivers, our oceans, and our balls. While Ocean Cleanup is...

- Microsoft is officially ending support for Windows 10 in October 2025, and for millions of PC users, that sounds like bad news, because you may not have the right hardware for Windows 11, or you may not want all of your personal data vacuumed up by Microsoft. But here’s the...

- After setting up dozens of Internet of Things (IoT) smart home devices, I started to wonder: how hard could it be to build one from scratch? I needed a project to learn on, so I decided to create something fun: a device that alerts my neighbors when my kids go swimming,...

- I’m a huge fan of ZSA. Their Voyager keyboard changed the way how I work and massively increased my typing speed, accuracy and comfort. I published my thoughts about it in the “A month with the ZSA Voyager split keyboard” some time ago. ZSA is a bunch of hard-working folks who...

- I like to try new technology. 75% of what I buy is something I use once or twice then sell or give away (or keep in a drawer and forget about. Sorry, remarkable). But sometimes, on rare occasions, there's a product that is A) fucking awesome and B) I can't help but evangelize....
