@h.olysh.it built an interesting OSS project: modelith.sh With AI driven development high levels of specificity upfront drives efficiency. 1. "grill-me" style skills to drive specificity 2. hybrid generated views (yaml + md w/ mermaid charts) 3. imperative linting forces correctness Super neat.

I created a Kubernetes package installer based on configuration as data. Instead of parameterizing every field, it encourages post-installation customization. The installer is open source and can be used without ConfigHub. Let me know what you think. medium.com/@bgrant0607/... #Kubernetes

A new Kubernetes package installer

Introduces a Kubernetes package installer designed for simple installation and post-installation customization.

Interesting: "It builds on top of Kubernetes features like Pods and Pod autoscaling, but takes the Kubernetes control-plane out of the critical path to achieve lower latency."

I am happy to share a little thing we have been cooking up: github.com/agent-substr... Problem statement: How can we effectively host a bazillion mostly-idle agents in a regular-sized Kubernetes cluster? This is *demo-grade* software, but it shows some ideas.

I'm now addicted to 2 (small) pi extensions: github.com/jkuball/pi-d... and github.com/badlogic/pi-... It's way easier (and faster) to work with it when you can give it early feedback, in a nice editor. If you're using pi-coding-agent, check them out. If you're not (yet) using pi -> pi.dev

I asked Claude (Sonnet) to bootstrap a new project (loosely) based on another one. There was a models.json file in the original project, with references to opus, sonnet, and haiku. Guess which ones made it to the new project? Only sonnet and haiku ;-)

Excellent talk from @mariozechner.at on coding agents, and "slowing the fuck down" www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjfb... 18 minutes, this is a very good time investment (while your agent is coding for you of course ;-) If you prefer to read: mariozechner.at/posts/2026-0...

As someone who has suggested using cooldowns to mitigate some attacks, I did enjoy this article arguing they are a poor solution and moral problem: calpaterson.com/deps.html Cal suggests using upload queues instead, which I would agree with.

If you're using the pi coding agent on Mac, here's a quick SwiftUI menu bar app to monitor your sessions: github.com/vbehar/PiScope and if you haven't tried pi yet, this is a good time to do it ;-) pi.dev

Since some asked: five months of Absurd in production. Durable execution on plain Postgres with tiny SDKs. The design held up fine, partitioning is still hard and some closing thoughts on the future of Open Source. lucumr.pocoo.org/2026/4/4/abs...

Oh! pi.dev has moved to Earendil. Good move. If you are into agentic AI and haven't tried it yet, now is a good time.

What if you could package, distribute, and secure Agent Skills like you do with your container images, configuration, and libraries? This is my proposal for an open specification for managing Skills as OCI Artifacts, re-using the same tools and infra you already have thomasvitale.com/agent-skills...

The Go Checksum Database guarantees that every single Go build uses the same source for a given module version. However, GitHub might not show you that code. pkg.geomys.dev displays the canonical source of a Go module, and it comes with browser extensions to replace pkg.go.dev source links.

Inspecting the Source of Go Modules

Code hosts like GitHub don't necessarily show the correct source of Go modules. pkg.geomys.dev is a new convenient viewer for module source.

interesting move by @percona.bsky.social, spinning off #opensource project PerconaEverest to a new co and turning it to a multi-vendor #database provisioning on #Kubernetes (OpenEverest). aiming to donate it to the CNCF. A nice addition to the #cloudnative stack. www.percona.com/blog/blog-po...

For those of us struggling with feeling devalued as programmers with the rise of AI, I present the following quote from Paul Graham: "In programming, as in many fields, the hard part isn't solving problems, but deciding what problems to solve."

Mitchell Hashimoto's AI adoption journey: mitchellh.com/writing/my-a... Really interesting. As always, push past the initial friction.

I really like the idea behind gryph github.com/safedep/gryph, it is hooking up onto your agents and create an audit trail log. It was simple to install, and did the job (I'm talking about the free opensource solution)

The Oxide RFD on using LLMs is exceptionally well written (h/t @bcantrill.bsky.social). This is a more coherent idea of what writing/text/language *is* and what's it's for---and why its expedited manufacture won't invalidate all aspects of that ontology---than a good chunk of the humanist hysterics.
