Yesterday I wrote about Robot Wars, the CT-3000 style game I built with my son Wessel (8). One day of playing later it has quietly turned into something else: a typing course, a programming lesson and a maths lesson in disguise. Coordinates, negative numbers and, next, degrees.

My son Wessel (8) came home from school talking about CT-3000. One weekend later we had Robot Wars: a two-player online game where you steer a robot by typing simple Dutch commands and try to shoot down the other player's tower. Built with Python, FastAPI, HTMX and a lot of enthusiasm.

A short introduction to herdr, a tmux-style terminal multiplexer built specifically for running multiple AI coding agents side by side, keeping them alive when you disconnect, and telling you which one is waiting for you.

A practical guide to using GNU screen for managing long-running terminal sessions that survive disconnects and system reboots.
