Weeknotes #61 (January 03, 2026)

Posted on: Jan 03, 2026

Things I found, read, did, and produced this past week.

Things I worked on

• Made a dashboard allowing me to save links for these posts more easily over the week: Weeknotes Dashboard
• I was learning about Jujutsu this week which is a relatively new version control system that is git compatible. It has some interesting features, but I feel what is holding it back is that it is git compatiable and therefore has to make functionality to interop with git forges like GitHub. A jj native forge would be interesting.
• Wrote my annual 2025 Year in Review
• Tried out Docker Sandboxes for usage with Claude Code.

Things I consumed

• Nathan Laundry's made a video going over his concepts of Digital Ethics and Digital Agency which aligns quite well with my various feeling about using tech intentionally.
• Andrew Nesbitt wrote about devs generating lockfiles for GitHub Actions and some of the pitfalls due to it not being native to the platform.
• I read Simon Willison's 2025: The year in LLMs which has a ton of good insights from someone who's had a large chunk of their year focusing in and researching what the models are capable of.
• Found this plugin for Claude Code: Claude Code Safety Net that tries to be more intelligent of protecting users against running dangerous commands if they are running the --dangerously-skip-permissions flag.
