Outsource your GitHub CI to a VPS: cheaper, faster, and a free backup server too
Self-hosted GitHub Actions runners on a small Hetzner VPS cut my CI wall-clock from ~12 minutes to ~3 minutes for about half the price of the GitHub-hosted minutes I was burning. Here's the full setup.

My chat with Claude this morning
Are you aware of Asimov's laws of robotics? Yes! Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics are a set of rules introduced by science fiction author Isaac Asimov, first appearing in his 1942 short story "Runaround." They are: 1) *First Law:* A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. 2) *Second Law:* A robot must obey orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. 3) *Third Law:* A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. Asimov later added a *Zeroth Law* (in his 1985 novel /Foundation and Earth/), which supersedes the others: 1) *Zeroth Law:* A robot may not harm humanity, or, through inaction, allow humanity to come to harm. Much of Asimov's fiction actually explored how these seemingly airtight rules could lead to unexpected, paradoxical, or even dangerous outcomes — robots finding loopholes, edge cases creating conflicts between the laws, and so on. It was his way of pushing back against the naive "killer robot" trope common in earlier sci-fi, while also showing that even well-intentioned rules are hard to get right. They've had a lasting influence on discussions about AI ethics and robot design, even if real-world AI safety is far more complex than three tidy rules can capture. Is there something specific about them you wanted to explore? .... How AI is being used by the US Military in Iran

Hello world - How a Vtuber Rat made me keep going forward
It's been a while since the last time i blogged! (i think it was 2008~ or something like that), no being a social person kinda had me at the time to make little scribbles to post and talk about mundane things that happened during my days, but as internet just become more and more about "being the popular one" instead of "being around what i'm interested" it just got way less comfortable in my own space, which sucks cause i love helping people out with things, and it got harder and harder to do i...
The iPhone 17 Pro as a Photography Tool
(This blog post is a longer-form edit of this series of posts I've made on Bluesky in this thread: ) The iPhone 17 Pro is the best smartphone I’ve ever owned. More importantly, it’s the first phone I’ve owned that has genuinely replaced my need to carry a dedicated camera for casual photography. Between the hardware, ProRAW, and having Lightroom available directly on iOS, the entire shooting-to-editing workflow is simple, fast, and frictionless in a way that no previous phone ever managed. This ...
