I feel like my kids like that I am always up puttering around. I am always there and available. At night, they can see the lamp of my office and hear me making a hullabaloo and clacking away at my desk as they lie tucked in their beds. They will often get up and come in with sleep in their eyes to ask me to tuck them back in. In the morning, when they climb out of bed they can hear my wife and me making coffee and chit-chatting or unloading the dishwasher. I remember lying in bed as a kid and hearing the grownups talking and laughing sitting around the table over the tinkling of spoons in coffee mugs.
When I think back on it, many of my most prized memories are memories of a feeling, a mood. The feeling then was that I belonged in a family of people who had always been there and who would always be there. My own cast of characters. I knew when I padded out to them in my pajamas they would all turn to look and smile at me and someone would pull me onto their lap and hold me close.

a user (u/Crunchy-Nut1) on our r/claudecode subreddit community connected claude code to his honda civic's chinese head unit.
he found that:
- a voice assistant was always listening for its wake word and running a hidden webview that consumed ~30% cpu even when nobody was talking
- a call recorder was preinstalled on the device handling his bluetooth calls
- the firmware had a root backdoor left by the vendor.
- a startup script silently installed any apk placed in a hidden folder, then deleted the file.
- the vendor's update app could push new firmware remotely.
- baidu location services and a vendor log collector were running in the background.
- the listing claimed device had 8 cores and android 15. the actual hardware had 4 cores and android 9, with a security patch from october 2021.
he then used claude code to:
- disable the always-listening assistant and other unwanted apps, then remove 18 packages after backing them up.
- shut down the root backdoor and hidden apk installation mechanism.
- disable the vendor's cloud updater.
- configure adguard private dns to block ads and trackers.
- upgrade android webview from version 66 to 138.
- build a custom civic launcher, generate its icons, and recalibrate the backup camera guidelines
- install open-source apps with sha-256 verification and lock down network access
debloating your cheap hardware is a pretty sick usecase of claude code

Remember falling asleep on the couch during family holiday gatherings?
You could hear the adults talking and laughing in the background, dishes being put away, and the TV playing softly.
You didn't have a care in the world. You just knew everyone was there, and you were safe.
It's funny how much you miss those ordinary nights, especially the people who made them feel like home.

The most likely outcome in Canada is:
- Alberta Independence Fails
- Quebec Separation Fails
- Liberals continue winning elections. Carney leads for 10+ years
- Canada joins The European Union
- Immigration Brings our country to 50 million+ People, 60, 70, etc.
- Canada becomes country with no ethnic majority. Christmas is just as well known as Ramadan or Diwali
- Greater possibility for ethnic/religious tension as groups compete politically/socially for their place in Canada
- Economic Growth remains unexceptional as most talented people/immigrants choose USA for lower tax rates, better healthcare, etc.
I genuinely don't think this is being pessimistic or overly negative. Do you? This is just where the country is at. This is what the majority of Canadians vote for.

it blows my mind how my friends who parent enter a different timeline... it happens very quickly. they have 1 kid, then the kid is 2 years old, then they have another kid, and all of a sudden they have a whole family and household and they’re moving through a different set of moves while people who don’t have kids are still getting drinks
