I once visited a website that had no user facing element and still asked. Out of curiosity I used a burner account to sign in. I reached the Admin Panel and was able to change texts on the website. 😬 (I informed the author of the website and he removed the option)

The main reason I still don't use Bluesky is the character limit. 300 characters is just way too few. It should be at 500 minimum.

I looking so forward for this release! Especially as I always struggled retrofitting SSR into my app that started with the Alpha of Inertia. I hope Inertia v3 solves this problem for me. 🤞 But even besides that the update looks so so good!

I'm pretty happy with Plexamp. The fastest setup. I had for something in years.

That's actually pretty concerning. This person is the Technical advisor at Bluesky.
Until December of last year I was using LLMs as fancy autocomplete for coding. It was nice for scaffolding out boilerplate, or giving me a gut check on some things, or banging out some boring routine stuff.
In the past two months Claude has written about 99% of my code. Things are changing.

I too have a different kind of resignation than some other people. Instead of accepting and using it, I just try to ignore it. I'm unhappy when I have to use it. I'm unhappy when I see what it does to humanity. I'm happy to read about it. So I stop that as good as I can.

It's sad how often I don't post anything here because of the character limit. 300 is just too less. Especially if I want to say something in German.

If the agency you hired is using AI generated images like this, they are doing you a disservice, over-charging you and doing irreparable damage to your brand. The thought of doing that makes us sick at @set.studio, so if you're looking for an agency that actually cares, check us out. set.studio
An AI generated image for Chery of 2 rulers, captioned "Platinum lasts longer. Over 200km longer." 

"We didn't test for the brochure, we tested for the real world."

The problem is, the ruler's measurements are a hodge-podge of random numbers.

So is programming. Which is why "vibe coding" is bunk. You have to think through exactly what you want the program to do, and only writing the code will force you to actually think it through properly.

the smartest and most invaluable colleagues I’ve had at any job are the ones with deep historical knowledge of a system/workplace: how it was built, what was tried/what failed, how things ended up The Way They Are. AI undercuts this sort of institutional knowledge-building

when you have 16,000 new lines of code which must be maintained indefinitely, and neither the author (who used AI) nor the reviewers (who used AI) has any knowledge about what that code *actually* does… that’s a perfect recipe for the erosion of institutional knowledge

kaiserkiwi @kaiser.kiwi · 13/02/2026
To say something positive about iOS 26: - The animations for going into an app and to the Homescreen are better - The annoying swipe up indicator hides itself after a few seconds in an app - The AirPlay menu doesn't look like crap anymore. - I was able to disable the camera swipe on the Lockscreen

I installed iOS 26 today. That was a mistake. Honestly I'd should've stayed on iOS 18 despite all the vulnerabilities. That would've been more comfortable than this mess. It's so much worse than everyone said and so much uglier than Screenshots and videos showed. 😫

Is there any good keyboard for iOS that doesn't belong to big tech? The iOS keyboard got so bad that I switched to SwiftKey. But well, it's Microsoft and I want to move away from them. I get the irony that I search for something that's not big tech on a device of big tech. No need to point it out.

Maybe I'll try Bluesky again for a bit. But this time definitely not via OpenVibe. This was a mess the last time. Every network with its own app. No automatic cross posting. This isn't possible anyway, as I have about seven times the characters on Mastodon s9 everything here would be truncated.
