iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

A mere handful of mostly American men are costing the rest of the World an absolute fortune. At what point do we say "OK, that's enough of your shit. Put your planet and humanity-destroying toys away, and piss off... Or else."

One of the many reasons I'd like to be closer to the EU is so we might not have to suffer radio ads with clearly British voice actors putting on the worst European accents I've ever heard. So cringe.

The conspiracy nutjobs on the other place are going doolally over the bail decision. It is a bit odd though. Especially when you consider how others have been treated by the law, and incarcerated, for alleged offences. eg: Palestine Action. Were there bombs in the vans or not? #psyop

Relevant, sure. But it's more important to be factually correct and politically unbiased. Since that is the actual issue that should be the headlines these days. Too many people underestimate the huge influential (and subliminal) power that news headlines have on us. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I like the idea of vocational education and training for young people. I wish we had something like that when I was at school. We went all the way through school and further education without 'real life' knowledge. But the main info everyone was lacking was "Tax/NI" and basic money management.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social The reason for the increase in all this nasty business is all down to the internet. America has successfully exported their views and cultures over here. This includes their racism - and Trumnpisms. (I've worked all over the US, and racism still runs wild in many places).

The key issue about "agents" finding their way into other systems is that it's a clear case of illegal activity. If a human was caught doing it, they'd be arrested. OpenAI/Anthropic etc. leadership MUST bear the legal consequences, not just ask for regulation and standards.

This sort of sentiment about AI in engineering is just going to grow and grow ...

A recent post from a software engineer about AI ..

I am done with this shit. It is over.

The state of engineering right now is horrible. It has been half a month since I started a new role at a big company. Nobody knows anything here. The specs, code, tests, PRDs, tickets, resolution of those tickets, reports, etc., everything is made by Claude Code. Nobody on my team likes this. They are being forced to ship as much as they can. I have heard multiple times from higher management that pushing code is not a bottleneck, so why are we slow? People are working 12 to 13 hours a day just to press enter. Nobody is reading anything. Humans in corporate are doing nothing on their own. Everyone, literally everyone, from an L1 to an L7 engineer here is doing the same thing. Talk to Claude.

There is no sense of victory. Nobody is resolving bugs. In reality, nobody is thinking anymore. Everything is done by LLMs. It is so soul-sucking. I would not mind it, to be honest, if we were at least given the time to check out the code and see what is going where. But no, the goal is to just ship. No matter what happens.
