Learn Powershell in a month of lunches was one of my favourite books to learn PowerShell. I still recommend it whole heartedly.

I never got the shtick though.

Until today, when I was reading Time management for system administrators. By chance I have been reading one chapter per day, per lunch hour.

And finally it clicked. I can finish one chapter per lunch hour - learn powershell in a month of lunches.

Apple's Smart Glasses With In-Lens Display May Feature Two Modes by Joe Rossignol

In his Power On newsletter today, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman said he was told a future version of Apple's smart glasses may be able to run a full version of the visionOS operating system when they are paired with a Mac, and then switch to a more lightweight, mobile-friendly interface when they are paired with an iPhone.

This would make sense if they are connected to the Mac with a wire. A similar device exists already which connect to a PC.

Toyota Aims to Launch the 'World's First' All-Solid-State EV Batteries - Slashdot by

According to Toyota, the next-gen battery tech "offers the potential for smaller size, higher output, and longer life."

The latest iPhone 17 Pro Max is still stuck at 12GB of RAM, presumably not enough to run this same model.

We are getting closer to the dream I have of on-device smart enough AI.

This means two things - my next Mac needs to have maybe 32GB memory. And Apple needs to add more than 16GB to the iPhone Pros. I know they need to manage power - RAM eats power.

Or, we get an even better model which runs on even less memory. Less likely though.

We’re getting closer though.

Superpowers: How I'm using coding agents in October 2025

Skills are what give your agents Superpowers.

The first time they really popped up on my radar was a few weeks ago when Anthropic rolled out improved Office document creation. When the feature rolled out, I went poking around a bit – I asked Claude to tell me all about its new skills. And it was only too happy to dish.

This is how Claude creates docs with that new feature that came out.

These are basically markdown documents that Claude reads to do things a certain way.

This post is full of so much interesting stuff. Like Claude can use this to read a book, or doc, or repo and teach itself new skills.

This is how to install it.

You'll need Claude Code 2.0.13 or so. Fire it up and then run:

/plugin marketplace add obra/superpowers-marketplace
/plugin install superpowers@superpowers-marketplace 

Quit and restart claude and you should be good to go.
