Which Way Is Up by Pearson Sound
The now legendary Hessle Audio label with a release from Pearson Sound. Groovy, Psychological, and Acid all at the same time. Great great stuff.

Advanced Image Dithering with Dither Boy by Studio AAA
Dither Boy is a software that produces very cool dithering effects on images. You can pick from multiple algorithms and customize them. Pretty cool! I wish I would have the same kind of things but for vector content. That is definitely something I keep in mind for my plotter art.
Get better results with cursor rules
With its latest release, cursor (the AI code editor) allows the user to set multiple rules in the .cursor/rules directory. The agent will then use the most appropriate rules for the task you are asking the AI. The cursor.directory website list amazing prompts you can use.

LLM writes low-level code and improves performance by 2x
An incredible mise en abyme happened yesterday. A developer managed to get 2x improvement by letting DeepSeek-r1 write code for a specific part of llama.cpp.
Surprisingly, 99% of the code in this PR is written by DeekSeek-R1. The only thing I do is to develop tests and write prompts (with some trials and errors)
According to the prompts shared by the developer, the model spent thinking 3 to 5 minutes per response.

DHH's absurd rant on ADHD
I got pissed off a bit too easily reading one more absurd take on ADHD. This time, it comes from DHH who blessed us with his weakly-informed opinion. Apparently, we ADHDers aren't crippled enough in our daily life that we have to suffer arrogant apes throwing feces blog posts at us. ADHD is a serious condition and society at large must face it instead of dismissing it.
ADHD is a subject of research since at least 1775
