Week of January 17, 2026

Things I learned during the week ending January 17, 2026.

• Distributed Key-value store – https://etcd.io/

• Learnt about VoiceLink, an alternative to [Wispr Flow] that have been using as my STT software, with it’s pricing model VoiceLink might be better replacement if it performs as good as WisprFlow

• The free-threaded version of python can be added to uv and github actions with t suffix. e.g. 3.14t and 3.13t source

• Puzer published a github recommendor that uses semantic embedding from user’s github stars all client side, I found some great recommendations which I plan to use:

  • pamburus/hl: A fast and powerful log viewer and processor that converts JSON logs or logfmt logs into a clear human-readable format. (⭐2657)
  • samwho/spacer: CLI tool to insert spacers when command output stops (⭐1663)
  • darrenburns/posting: The modern API client that lives in your terminal. (⭐11134)
  • plutov/oq: Terminal OpenAPI Spec viewer (⭐943)
  • wey-gu/py-pglite: PGlite wrapper in Python for testing. Test your app with Postgres just as lite as SQLite. (⭐577)
