Terminal browsers broke 20 years ago: they parse HTML and the web went JavaScript. mdbrowse fronts a real browser engine: your terminal gets the semantic page. Headings, prose, links, tables. Your cookies, your logged-in web, no noise. brew install giantravens/tap/mdbrowse

LLM coding agents have no memory so their todo lists vanish when the session ends. punchlist: every task is a plain markdown file. Agents file work, tick acceptance boxes, log telemetry. The next session picks up exactly where the last one left off. brew install giantravens/tap/punchlist

giantravens.github.io/retro-… You can sorta fake 'old skool' crt effects in iterm2 profiles - but you can REALLY geek out if you render them in ghosTTY via webGL - fun CRT effects configurator had to include. Retro terminals for Weyland-Yutani, Wallace Corp, etc.
