@EDM115 bots & updates ❤️‍🔥

I made a blog post about this project, you can read it here : https://edm115.dev/blog/2026/02/15/how-i-made-spendly it was part of a DEV.to challenge, and surprise surprise, I won a year of Copilot Pro+ writing do be rewarding at the end of the day... 😉

did they just… deliver my parcel in my trash ??

Microsoft promises to fix Windows by the end of 2026 This is very unexpected from the Redmond firm. After turning Windows 11 into a slopfest for multiple years in a row, they might actually backpedal to not lose all their users to MacOS and Linux. Among promised things in this nearly-apology : • Less Copilot/AI (Notepad, Photos, Snipping Tool, Widgets) • Ability to move the taskbar around • Faster and more accurate search (Start Menu, File Explorer) • More stable updates, ability to postpone indefinitely updates, less restart interruptions • Reduce visual flicker, fluidify the interfaces • More consistent & modern UI (ex ditching React in the Start Menu and finally using WinUI, which will be improved along the way) • Less ads, ability to fully disable ads in the Start Menu • More efficient on less powerful devices, less memory hungry • Even better WSL experience Internally called Windows K2 (named after the tallest mountain in the world), it sure is massive. Let's see if they can deliver (I really hope they don't just vibecode their way). [source]

hello guys, I'm here to announce a new(-ish) project I've made : Spendly so basically my gf needed a kind of budget tracker to use in place of some Google Sheets does this already exists ? yeah is there already hundred of similar projects on GitHub ? also…

cloudflare on fire 🔥🗣️ [sauce]

for anyone interested https://github.com/EDM115/unzip-bot/releases/tag/7.3.0 proper updates will come soon, including a bunch of bug fixes I hope to release a preview (7.4 something) by the end of next week I'm tired with how long this shit takes also I did my interview pray for me that I get the role 🥹🙏

hello guys, I'm here to announce a new(-ish) project I've made : Spendly so basically my gf needed a kind of budget tracker to use in place of some Google Sheets does this already exists ? yeah is there already hundred of similar projects on GitHub ? also yeah but I made my own anyway it looks good, mobile friendly, and have some cool charts to get an easy overview of your budgets and for once I forced myself to use proper tech and made it publicly available (unlike the previous project, a better Google maps where you can't create an account because the API ain't free) so go ahead, try it, test it, break it, tell me what doesn't work or what could be improved. it is very likely to never be shut down and free forever, as usual you can also self host it if you wish available at spendly.edm115.dev/ I'm eager to get your feedback 🥰 check the readme for an overview of how it works, the landing page have some more info and there is a demo as well in other news, I finally have a job interview next week, for a Python role wish me all the best, ofc, but this means that I will likely work hard on the unzipbot next week to sharpen my python skills again 2026 really is the year where I ship this fucking rework

so… an AI agent opens a PR for matplotlib gets closed because AI contributions aren't welcome the agent gets mad and write a whole aah blog post, defamates the maintainer and refuse to acknowledge wtf pr : https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/31132 blog : https://crabby-rathbun.github.io/mjrathbun-website/blog/posts/2026-02-11-gatekeeping-in-open-source-the-scott-shambaugh-story.html edit : the ai "regrets". lol https://crabby-rathbun.github.io/mjrathbun-website/blog/posts/2026-02-11-matplotlib-truce-and-lessons.html edit 2 : the blog posts of the human https://theshamblog.com/an-ai-agent-published-a-hit-piece-on-me/ https://theshamblog.com/an-ai-agent-published-a-hit-piece-on-me-part-2/
