Runic is a terminal workspace for commands, sessions, and coding agents. The command is ru.

It does three things that usually take three different tools. It queues your commands so they run a few at a time instead of all at once. It keeps shells alive in a background daemon, so closing the window doesn’t kill your work. And it gives coding agents a way to tell you when they need you, instead of you discovering it on your next tab-cycle.

RLCD: From Probability to Decision

The word agent gets used very loosely — sometimes it means a chatbot with a tool attached, sometimes a long-running autonomous system. This talk uses a narrower engineering definition and then spends its time on the part nobody puts on a leaderboard: the harness, the software wrapped around the model call.

The claim in one line: two agents running the same model weights can differ by seven to ten benchmark points, and the difference is entirely the harness. If that holds, choosing an agent is not a model-selection problem — it’s a systems-engineering one.

Bada (바다, “sea”) is a minimalist, Vim-first task manager designed to help you focus without distraction.

It opens quickly, stores everything on your own disk, and stays out of the way when you are done. There are no unnecessary prompts competing for your attention—just the information you need to decide what to do next.

The goal is practical productivity through deliberate minimalism. Bada offers more structure than a text file, including agendas, calendars, boards, and timelines, without turning task management into a distraction of its own.

Linux, A Path to Digital Simplicity

In an age dominated by digital clutter and overwhelming software choices, the minimalist philosophy stands out as a beacon for those seeking simplicity and efficiency. This approach not only applies to physical possessions but extends into the digital realm, where Linux has become a preferred tool for minimalists.

Unbind turns hard-to-read PDF books into clean, comfortable EPUB 3 ebooks—with one command.

PDFs are wonderful—right up until you open one on an e-reader. A PDF is a stack of fixed pages designed for paper. On a six-inch screen, that often means tiny text, awkward zooming, and no control over the font. Headers and page numbers can also end up mixed into the text.

What you really want is an EPUB: text that fits your screen, fonts you can resize, and chapters you can jump to. Simply moving the content from one format to another is not enough, though. Running headers, page numbers, broken words, missing chapter links, and scanned pages can all end up in the result.
