"Proletarianization" of computer programmers through eg AI is an opportunity to remove the veil and realize there is no actual "higher form" of labor. There is the working class, and then there is a mode of production that alienates them all equally. The charade is over.

i'm actually doing it a bit later in the year to visit family in ireland - you've now gotta go, like, western australia -> malaysia -> germany -> western europe, essentially tracing a thin line between the pontic steppe and arabian peninsula. not impossible, but too slow/expensive to repeat often

there is definitely some kind of disconnect between what agents can do and what actually produces good software. i wonder whether people are being seduced into busywork (or counterproductive antiwork) just because it’s now easy

obviously this isn’t a matter of “couldn’t be bothered”, they just have different priorities and values to what i was hoping for. but i feel like those values shifted from what originally attracted me to svelte.
000
Font/DA Mover @gulbanana.au · 18/08/2026
the new runtime is good, and some of the surface level syntax is an improvement as well. what bugs me enough that i basically moved on from svelte is how *unnecessary* the bad parts were. these things were heavily discussed during development, the team just chose not to fix them

Font/DA Mover @gulbanana.au · 18/08/2026
sometimes i think about svelte 5 and get annoyed all over again. svelte 4 was so good, and then 5 introduced some great new ideas... but changed design direction to no longer care about ergonomics. destructuring-only $props, java style type stuttering, the boilerplate required by snippets... augh

it's alarming, particularly coming a day after similar positive comments on jqwik attempting to delete llm users' code. people are blinded by their hatred for this technology. even if it actually is bad enough to hate, they're being irrational and cruel.

unfortunately yes. i keep hearing of mandates like "for two weeks, everyone at the company is forbidden from opening an editor - claude code only" followed by "update: everyone please experiment with using fewer/cheaper tokens immediately". apparently this is driven by a fear of falling behind??

i occasionally find agents useful for throw-it-away prototyping. if you have three ideas that may or may not be viable, generating quick bad versions of them can answer questions like "would this optimisation have a measurable effect"

well, that's pretty likely to be correct. techcos already perceive themselves (somewhat insanely imo) to have no choice but to spend thousands per employee per month on tokens because of existential competition from others doing the same
