Here are my thoughts on news across the internet this week. We touch on rent denialism, collapsing job markets, corporate productivity theater, and the many ways AI is being oversold, misused, or shoved where it doesn’t belong. Along the way I rant about enshittification, ownership (of code, hardware, and ideas), bad APIs, worse management, the slow death of the old internet, and why UNIX got it…
Development log for the past couple of weeks. This devlog features the first contribution body crafted largely by AI. libakerror, libakstdlib, libakgl, and akbasic.

Musing on the meaning of home and the pain of trying to go home again
Development log entry for the week ending 27 June 2026. Improvements to libakerror logging, libakstdlib gets linked list and binary tree implementations, and I'm banging my head against libakgl to get binary space partitioning implemented correctly, as well as documentation improvements to all of these libraries.
Here are my takes on the news for this week. It's worth what you paid for it. Compromised accounts pushing AI-generated code into Fedora, AI lawyers winning real cases, AI replacing HR, autonomous weapons, insecure AI-written software, and the growing tension between centralized AI power and the need for affordable local compute. Alongside that, I lament how technology is being hollowed out by…
Devlog entry for 18 June 2026. More ESP32 projects, including a complete Snake game.
Musings on what it's like to carry around your sin, and the difficulty of giving it up to God
Devlog entry. More ESP32 projects, this time focusing on analog to digital converters, touch sensors, photoresistors, and a demo project with a joystick and WS2821 featuring my own breadboard design and no tutorial code.
updates to my C stdlib library, several libakgl improvements (pluggable physics and rendering backends), and ESP32 projects (fun with Arduino IDE, transistors, oscilloscopes and logic analyzers!)
Development log entry. Goodbye GitHub, C error handling library improvements, a new C standard library wrapper, and a new C SDL3 game library I'm playing with

Here are my (limited) thoughts on the news for the 5th week of 2026. It's worth what you paid for it.
Here are my takes on the news for this week. It's worth what you paid for it.
Musings on the rift that the "AI Revolution" is exposing in the field of computer programming, that being a divide between programmers who view it as an artform, and who enjoy the act of programming itself, and those who actually do not enjoy programming, and just want to get around it faster to be more productive.
