You thinking of moving to management or not? Well, I'd say before you do that invest at least 10 minutes to get a glimpse from you what that (brutal) change can mean for you!

If killing people was as difficult as writing CSS we would already have world peace
Models can’t even write CSS and every headline is about AI killing us

Bury your head in the ground at your own risk. I aim to not jump on any hype trains, but since Opus 4.6 and GPT-5.2 + the harnesses it was clear that these things can write code nearly as good as I can in my best language; better in other languages. But we won't see non-devs push production code for a long time; possibly forever, if you ask me. Software still needs to be built in robust ways, and it's our profession to do this well, and use the new tools we have, which create new and interesting (+tough!) challenges

In Austria you’ll see β€œParents are liable for their children” signs everywhere. This should be the law for labs and their models, too.

Few things fill me with German national pride like Hetzner does. πŸ˜… Really, really interesting glimpse how Hetzner works from the inside and how the are able to offer incredibly competitive prices by being very scrappy. Recommended watch: youtu.be/MQeJYEN_lrg

It’s called Law of Diffusion of innovations. For me @simonsinek made the concept in combination with change mgmt popular

Guess what? They are almost all back to marocco bc that Enclave != EU. So it’s great right-wing fearmongering videos
Well, you did make a mistake. They're not. The vast majority have already gone home. Will you be correcting this tweet @SuellaBraverman? In the interests of truth and factual accuracy?

Replying to @thdxr
It's because React actually does composition right. Everyone likes to say they're composable but then a small change requires reading a ton of files to fix it. That’s not composition, it’s just splitting code up.

Reading AI-generated code is exhausting Almost as exhausting as not reading it and having to deal with bad assumptions and subtle bugs (and needing reading the code later anyway)

Before AI, I’d spend a weekend building 1 useless app. Now I can build 67 useless apps over a weekend, each with a logo, a fancy webpage, and 0 user.

I really don't get the hype about skills. They are just docs. Just write docs and ship them inside your packages.

At this point Claude should just re-release Opus 4.6 as Opus 4.8 and it would look like an improvement

This week it looks like @SpotifyEng & Product can't stop shipping; As a paying customer (Spotify Family) I'm now randomly getting Ads inserted randomly. I hope this is 100% a Bug (too much vibe coding with the AI Slack Bot?).

We conducted cyber evaluations of Claude Mythos Preview and found that it is the first model to complete an AISI cyber range end-to-end. 🧡

Iβ€˜m visiting the military history museum in Vienna, walking the paths and realizing a lot of post WW1/2 conflicts are rooted in this history 🀯🫠
