I need to use AI at work, they just check us if we do it, so I use it. They want slop, they get slop. But I got a super hard hit: I can't code anymore. Maybe not *at all*, but it's super hard. I don't remember basics. I have an interview in 2 weeks, nothing crazy since I don't expect to get […]

I have a PC but I'm using it way less than I wanted. I use Opensuse tumbleweed there. And while I like it, it's annoying that with my limited time I need to search some 3rd party repos to find how this ubuntu/rhel/arch package is called for tumbleweed or build from source because there is just […]

Europeans: we are dependent on US and China and we are irrelevant in tech! Some people: so let's do something, let's start with x, y and z. Again, same Europeans: no! We are not US to do US things 5 minutes later: we are dependent on USA boooo #tech #europe #buyfromeu #europeanunion #technology

I had a week off last week, I haven't touched computer even once, I spent a lot of time with kids, cycling and working in the garden. It only confirmed me again that I'm burnt out as fuck for a few years now. I'd happily leave IT but I'm locked. #it #work #burnout

Hey @european_alternatives is your service still alive? I read multiple times that people stopped even trying to submit new things, because they get ignored. I also see that you are inactive for a year in here.

In January 2022, 2,000 apps offering some form of subscription were added to Google Play and the AppStore. By January 2026, this figure had risen to almost 15,000. The median earnings after one year stand at a staggering $72 a month; the first quartile is just over $400, but the top 10 per […]

I started building an app for riding an indoor trainer, because all I could find at that point was not for me. I hate virtual worlds and routes simulation as I just want to ride a bike and watch a movie. And at this point, I have no idea how people can release their apps (vibe coded or not) so […]

All these conspiracy theories saying that midnight testing of Jonas and Pogacar were staged by French to help Seixas are idiotic. 1. It's ITA not French who are responsible for doping control on TdF 2. Why to hurt Jonas and Pog, but not direct competitors of Seixas like Del Toro if they'd like […]

I don't know about you, but I've lost absolutely all interest in TdF already. If we already know who will be 1st and 2nd, then it's super boring. If I watch sport, I do it for competition and entertaining, not... this. #tdf #tdf2026 #tourdefrance

Hey #cycling people! If you do rides on indoor trainer, do you use Zwift or MyWhoosh? If yes, do you care about their gamification or social features, virtual worlds and routes, or you just ride there and care just about the numbers (power, time, etc.) I'm just wondering if I'm the only one […]

What's the point of using email provider like Tuta? They advertise that their emails are encrypted, but it's only when you send email to another Tuta user. When your email leaves Tuta server it's plain text anyway. Why not just use PGP? #email #tuta #pgp

There was a big announcement by #Qwant and #Ecosia that they are working on own search index. It was in 2024. Since then, no updates besides one vague Linkedin post. Unfortunately, it's typical EU innovation, and the reason why we are so behind. #staan #staanai

Lesson learned, caloric deficit and sweet spot intervals are not good friends. I barely got off the bike and needed sugar ASAP to not faint. Info for future me: eat more carbs before such sessions #cycling

I know that AI is not popular topic on Fedi, but will try anyway. Do you have any good resources how to get better, more productive or (what's quite important) learn better with AI? Right now, I use Claude Code at work, it's kinda good, but I'm using it a bit "raw", with just one custom skill […]
