Submitted a new web game named

Robonaut's Quest to Black Hole

on an online game development contest.

Link:

Plot = 100% mine. Development = 20% programming, 80% "vibe coding"

Tools used:

VS Code with GitHub copilot (all of Agent mode, Edit mode and Chat mode).

LLM includes but not limited to Claude 3.7, Gemini 2.5 Pro and GPT 4.1

git with LazyGit

Vite, pnpm

Kitty, Zellij

Perplexity Deep Research created this MCP post for me.

Now I'll have to dig deep inside the post to see what MCP is all about.

Note: AI generated content has the least per word consumption ratio by Humans 🤣

Linux Developer Workstation Upgrade TODO List!

Need an easily reproducible setup with Chezmoi.

Need a better backup / restore system.

Need a more stable Terminal setup with good features: will WezTerm + Zellij + Yazi do the trick?

Powerlevel10k theme's transient prompt doesn't work with zsh syntax highlighting plugin. Need this fixed!

Switching from tmux to Zellij

Terminal Multiplexer

If you've used terminal multiplexer in command line, you know tmux is cool! If you haven't, you really should use something like tmux, especially if you SSH into remote servers often!

Why?

Tell me: what do you do if suddenly your SSH connection is dropped while you're in the middle of an important installation or update process that needs your input?

That terminal session is lost and you cannot easily (if at all) get back to that installation process!

This may make your system a half cooked mess! A terminal multiplexer is what you need to solve this exact issue.

Let's just say: it'll save the day, by letting you log back into the session at the exact point you were dropped off from!

The switch

Tmux is not just a terminal multiplexer though, it's a lot more than that. But this post is not about tmux. It's about me switching from tmux to Zellij. Why? Because Zellij is just better, and with a lot more batteries included.

I was keeping an eye on Zellij for some time now, but didn't get enough time to switch. But today was that day. So here I come Zellij!

P.S. you don't need to learn tmux to start using Zellij. So if you've never used tmux, just start with Zellij right away. Here are some tutorials.

Installation

As it happened, Zellij cannot be directly installed on the OS I'm using: Ubuntu. Also, this is a new laptop I'm setting up, so I needed to take a few steps to install Zellij. So may be this post will be useful to someone!

If you need to copy the above code: here's the link for the code!

Further info

Here's a useful video walk through with Zellij:

That's it! Happy CLI mastery with Zellij, Oh My zsh and Alacritty!

Code companion NeoVIM plugin is doing pretty well!

So as I always do with things I really like on GitHub - starred it and forked it.

Will use it for sure! Along with GitHub copilot and Cline.

There's no one thing does all in this AI-era.

Tools will become more in numbers than people. Unlike others, I'm not fearful of this change. Bring it on!

Clearly - most people don't understand data.

The following tweet shows that even technically sound people don't understand data:

Elon Musk made a bold claim using incomplete SSN data. And then someone else tried to clarify, but that too is not that accurate.

I posted another tweet to clarify things:

Then yet another:

Not sure if I could take the point across though!

Microsoft OmniParser is cool, especially since it's open source!

Starred & Forked.

Drug interaction AI Agent

Not sure how much work was done on this field, but patient facing open drug interaction database and AI Agent working on that database can be really useful.

Will have to keep this in my radar.

A few relevant links

Webmd Drug interaction checker tool.

A paper on drug interaction database.

We can now use custom scripts in brave browser.

This is nice!

[fayazdev]

Forked! 😇

This repo probes installed WordPress Plugins to find vulnerabilities using exposed REST API Plugin end points.

Could be very useful! 🔥

GitHub - fayaz-dev/deep-research: An AI-powered research assistant that performs iterative, deep research on any topic by combining search e

Forked another GitHub repo! 🔥

Will it become as good as Open AI's deep research? Or, will it become even better? 🤔

My verdict is, whether this one or another, for these sort of tools at least, Open Source will win eventually.

Fun fact: If I like a GitHub repo, I ⭐ it, and if I really really like a GitHub repo, I fork it too! 😇

💡 idea

Use agent.ai to create an Agent to categorize GitHub Starred and Forked Repositories.

Langbase · Serverless AI Developer Platform

Langbase looks promising as a Serverless AI developer platform.

Will have to check out.

Checkout this related post too!

LangChain Alternatives You Can Use to Build AI and Agentic Workflows

These could supplement Agent.ai

Will have to figure out later - how they all help me achieve my goals - 100 projects in the next 5 years using AI 🚀

Notesnook | Open source & zero knowledge private note taking app

I use Obsidian for note taking, and I love Obsidian.

But I'll probably eventually move towards an Open Source alternative.

Notesnook

Notesnook looks promising, very promising. Even forked the repo it!

Open Source for the win!

Source Map Visualization

JavaScript Source Map visualization - good for reverse engineering code.

Combined with generative AI, this can be useful!

Starred and Forked Flexbox Layout code generator.

Will use it later.

GitHub Copilot just added a ton of cool features!

Next Edit Suggestions.

o3-mini model.

Copilot Chat now has Vision capability - so adding a screenshot to a prompt will now work!

Copilot Edits now has agent mode - cool! 🥳

Add extra context with PROJECT/.github/prompts/*.md prompt files. Very helpful for creating new DB models.

This guy has some good points on learning Machine Learning and learning in general.

My learning and problem solving skills are just fine, so I only need some of the next steps:

Learn Python well (already started).

Start with Jupyter Notebooks (already done before).

Learn Pandas - Python data manipulation libbary (I know R, so this shouldn't be a problem).

Do a data analysis project (already did with R, so shouldn't be that difficult with Pandas).

Essential Math for ML - probably know most of it. i. Stat and probability - already know it, need recap. ii. Linear Algebra - already know it, need recap. iii. Calculus - already know it, need recap.

Core ML concepts and algorithms - know most of it from my CS degree (intro to AI), need some new knowledge and mostly recap.

Scikit-Learn tutorial - ML library: new.

Do ML projects (using data from Kaggle.com perhaps).

Move to advanced topics i) DL ii) CNN iii) RNN iv) NLP Transformers v) Advanced Optimization Techniques

Important:

Avoid Tutorial hell.

Share work with others.

Participate in hackathons.
