Slop. (Been brought to my wandering attentiontion that a quite specific sort of brohead might be aiming to re-define this beauty of a word's meaning. Slop. So, for now i might feel the urge to yell. Slop. Just to help me remember what it means. Slop. What it is. Slop. What i despise. Slop) #Slop

You know what's clever? To this day there are a few Rappers (single artists, groups) refusing and actually not releasing any other way than on vinyl. I guess it's a given their music will never be picked up by the parrot :-) ... probably other genres too, who knows?

the guys who only learned C, insisted on C for everything, refused or failed to learn any other language, and put down anyone who tried to use anything else, are now fully in on LLMs because they think programming is too unpleasant and hard

The 2026 Maintainers Summit "Torvalds suggested adding an AGENTS.md file that makes generating kernel code expensive. He ends every session with a lengthy cleanup pass that takes a couple of hours to run, executing tasks like ensuring that the code matches the comments. That amount of work […]

Is journalism failing? Listening and reading to what journalists (with reach) have to say and write about "AI" the last few weeks ... It is astonishing how little conforms with reality. Things like datacenters docked to sattelites or crafts like tiling can already done by robots really make me […]

How about this? A comes round the corner with that shiny, new tool or tech A fell in love with. Now A can try to convince B about its merits. Good luck A! Unfortunately what i often see is A demanding a justification of B for not blindly embracing that shiny, new tool or tech. I think it's […]

A serious question: is it debunking itself? Two recurring things stand out when looking through job postings for dev positions: One must vouch for generated code. One must ensure same level quality of generated code as if it were hand written. To begin with: I can't remember any helper […]
