MarkPad 0.11.0: I shipped YAML support in my lightweight local-first Markdown editor // MarkPad is a small Tauri 2 desktop editor with a live preview, and 0.11.0 makes YAML a third first-class document language next to Markdown and JSON: highlighting, validation, folding, and Format and Sort keys that go through a real document model so comments and anchors survive. Plus Mermaid and Graphviz diagrams and outside-edit detection. 
Two days tracing a silent deny: cursor-agent runs PowerShell hooks with bash on Windows // A debugging field report: when MSYSTEM is set, cursor-agent on Windows composes its imported Claude Code hooks as PowerShell and evaluates them with bash, so every tool call is silently blocked while the CLI still exits 0. Two days to trace, the raw stream-json output gave it away, Cursor confirmed and reproduced it the same day, and an A/B run narrowed the trigger to that one Git Bash variable. Self-hosted LLMs as agentic coders: what 12 and 24 GB of VRAM delivered // A field report on trying to replace Codex and Claude Code with local inference: Ollama then LM Studio, OpenCode and Qwen Code as harnesses, and Gemma 4, GPT-OSS, Qwen and Agents-A1 models on a 12 GB RTX PRO 3000 laptop and a 24 GB RTX PRO 4000 desktop, against a production Dart and Flutter Firebase repo. gcbad_dart: I open-sourced a strongly-typed Dart client for the GoCardless Bank Account Data API // A pure-Dart client that wraps the GoCardless Bank Account Data API v2 end to end: automatic token management, the requisition consent flow, and typed accounts, balances, and transactions, with every failure as one exception. On pub.dev under MIT. HotRulez: I created a free open-source Firebase Rules handling plugin for JetBrains IDEs // A JetBrains plugin that finally treats Firebase Security Rules as a real language: structural highlighting, formatting, diagnostics, and symbol intelligence for .rules files, no auth evaluation. whoami // The long version of what lezli01 resolves to: C++ close to the machine, big cloud systems on Kubernetes and AWS held up by DevOps and infrastructure, a relentless tool-experimenter, Dart and Flutter to ship fast, and the one thing I am not.
