  Components for my HVAC control have arrived. A little overvoltage issue fried my previous control setup (controme, which, let's say, sounds nice on paper), and I thought I will redo it in a way that will be maintainable by a different person in 30 years. Now unfortunately being allowed to download WAGO IO Check requires a manual step, and no one is in over the weekend to approve. I have no idea how to stay patient!

  TIL: Harman bought AKG and closed their Vienna development office. The engineers didn't appreciate, and founded their own company, called Austrian Audio. Word has it that they produce high quality, affordable gear. I'll find out soon, wife made me get closed headphones.

  I've had a chance to use Opus 4.6 a bit, not just for coding tasks, but for other typical corporate management activities too, like reading and writing policies, understanding bookkeeping, etc. And I have some scary news. Sure it makes mistakes, but for a person treating it as an extended information processing tool instead of outsourcing thinking to it, not more so than your average junior developer, outsourcing partner, big four consultant below partner level.

  @lcamtuf Thousands of years of hard work trying to get away from reality as far as possible, and who can blame them. And then, when discrete mathematics suddenly became relevant to practical problems, they fought back so hard that "abstract nonsense" is now a technical term.
