Introducing Gathersheet 👋 I got tired of dealing with Signup Genius. So I built an alternative that isn't full of ads or slow as hell. gathersheet.com
Gathersheet — Free sign-up sheets, no account needed
Create a sign-up sheet in a minute, share a short link, and watch it fill up. Participants claim a slot with just a name and email — no account, no ads, no paywalls.

The web is moving from pages humans navigate to systems agents operate, and the winners will expose structured capabilities instead of just UI. speek.dev/blog/the-new...
The Web wasn't built for AI Agents
A parallel web is taking shape for AI agents, with its own ways of discovering content, reading it, interacting with it, and paying for it. Most companies aren't ready.

I added WebMCP tools to my site so AI agents can search my espressos, browse my gear, and like blog posts. Wrote about how it works and why it matters for agentic browsing. speek.dev/blog/webmcp-...
Adding WebMCP tools to speek.dev
I added five WebMCP tools across speek.dev that let AI agents search my coffee collection, browse my gear, and like blog posts. Here's how it works and why it matters for agentic browsing.

Wrote up how I built an AI gateway on @fastly.com Compute. One endpoint, any model, routing decisions made at the edge. Bring your own keys and provider relationships. The gateway handles where each request goes, failover, and policy. www.fastly.com/blog/buildin...

Archiving my day with a single photo
I plan my day on paper using Ugmonk’s Analog. At the end of the day, a Shortcut turns a photo of that card into a searchable, portable daily log in Bear, no retyping, no second system.

Realized Zoom’s mic setting doesn’t update macOS system audio, which messes with tools listening alongside Zoom. Wrote a lil Apple Shortcut and triggering it with Shortery (A new-found fave). Post: speek.dev/blog/automat... Also, fuck ICE.
Automatically switch your audio input
Automatically switch your macOS audio input based on active apps using Shortcuts, Shortery, and a small shell script, no manual mic juggling required.

today is my 40th birthday. to toot my own horn a bit, I'm the happiest, healthiest, and most successful I've ever been, so I'm going to indulge myself and do one of those "40 things that made me who I am" threads so buckle up (or mute me for the next little bit 😆)

Gergely Orosz@gergely.pragmaticengineer.com · last yr.AI crawlers are wrecking the open internet. My small side project - techpays .com - used to generate below 100GB of traffic per month. It’s on Render where 500GB/month included, above it’s $30 per 100GB. Meta’s AI crawler + other bots have pushed it to 700GB+ per month WTH
No one: LinkedIn at 9pm: one of your former co-workers has a connection that’s hiring for a role completely disconnected from your profession
Finally giving @kagi.com a go, both for the Orion browser and search. The browser has come a long way and the search (which is never tried) looks excellent. I’ll do a write up soon, but I’m already happy with my main mobile test: 1. ad blocking 2. YouTube background play
