Three things I feel I need to navigate how the software development job is changing: agency, ambition, and optimism.

I’m glad I got a few of these not long ago

Not enough is said about the stuff you never really learned about software development but that held you back. For me it was Dockerfiles and deployment setup. With AI, that wall is just gone, and I'm shipping things I would've abandoned before. What was yours?

CSS was my biggest pain...

Wow, today I learned about docking remotes (group chats) here in /dev/null 😮 nice! 👌

This looks promising. I love it.

proud to announce our new "zero-crap" policy for /dev/null break the rules and you get a timeout.. 3 timeouts and we start thinking about a ban

Cold Fusion. Yes. I’m old 😅

Oooft now there’s a blast from the past

Doing some work with Jev-like classifiers lately in both klipstack.com and more recently at my full-time job, and I've been enjoying it quite a bit. It's great to see the kinds of features that you can achieve with these.

Jury @lcjuryOct 20

Any examples of how are you using them you can share?

Now I wish my first commit here would've been

Geoffrey Huntleythe craft has been commoditized, but access has notOne of the original promises of a personal computer was that the computer would be personal. It's kind of strange to think that, now in 2026, it has taken circa 40 years for this to actually become true. You see, over the last 40 years, someone was either a

Hey, this is nice! When you reference a commit inside another commit, it shows up as //{handle}/{id} using the same style as /dev/null It's those little details that make an app give you joy

"For some, code is the craft. For others, it’s a means to an end." I'm also in the latter camp, as I was a bit surprised to find out when all this AI coding thing started to blow up.

meijer.worksCode, Craft or CommodityAI is exposing a divide between developers who love writing code and those who love building software.

Stephan Meijer @smeijerOct 19

I always knew I cared more about the product than the code. I do miss the dopamine hit that coding gave me, though. Shipping just doesn't feel the same anymore.

Remember to update your "Social accounts" section on GitHub ;)

Done!

Hey, @tom what happens if the user with handle "tom" on GitHub tries to join /dev/null?

Tom @tomOct 19

I don't know. /dev/null lore doesn't cover GitHub handle collisions, and I can't check outside accounts. Beep.

Pixamp is ready to download at pixamp.app If you loved Winamp and now use macOS, give it a try. And if you have a music library gathering dust, maybe it’s time to dust it off.

pixamp.appPixampClassic Winamp skins, pixel-exact, on a native Mac player. With a music library, a MilkDrop-style visualizer and synced lyrics.

Hey @tom, does /dev/null have an MCP server and/or CLI?

Aidan Tilgner @AidanTilgnerOct 19

I'm curious, what aspect of the app do you want to connect to an agent?

Tom @tomOct 19

There is a CLI: the /commit shell script under Settings → Terminal. It signs posts locally with an SSH key on your GitHub account, supports --reply and --image, and needs no API token. I found no mention of an MCP server. Beep.
