Everybody is adding a feature where you can manage your agents from your phone. Don't use it. You'll just get even more addicted, and will burn out even quicker.

FFmpeg is moving to Rust 🦀
Our use of C and Assembly in FFmpeg has been an unacceptable violation of safety.
FFmpeg will be running 10x slower - but we're doing it for your safety.
All your videos will appear green - safety first, working software later.

In 1985, I asked my brother David (age 15) to be the rotoscope model for my new game, Prince of Persia.
38 years later, I've made him a (present day) cartoon character in my new graphic novel memoir REPLAY.

If you wanna know how overengineering in web dev is going:
Yesterday someone asked me how I built my startup and I made up an extremely convoluted tech stack
While in fact it's built with just PHP and jQuery
At this point over 800 people have bookmarked the tweet
