Loud and clear...
A screenshot from an article with the following phrase emphasized: "When a bridge collapses, you don't analyze whether the bridge was ethical or sentient or why it decided to collapse. You ask, who is the person who built this bridge to be so flimsy?"

Can we stop calling X a "social media"? Why is it still a thing? Why are we allowing it? www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Ethics in Programming? Where we're going we don't need ethics in programming.

I'm exploring MCPs to retrieve information from Open Data. The following integration tests **are all copy-paste**: same logic, same LLM, same MCP, same Tool, same data. The way in which the LLM decides how to use the tool differs so sometimes it gets it right and sometimes not.

Testing MCPs I'm seeing some LLM's problems when handling data: they propagate errors and they do not sum properly. a) They "hallucinate" a value for some registries while in "thinking" mode (548 in the example). b) They cannot sum properly, even with its own data. Is 41, but it sums 42 🤷

Bold statement from enhance.dev but I love the idea. This is the tech we should aim to. Build around the platform and design to last.

I'm having so much fun with @htmx.org, Web Components and View Transitions while developing a simple app that can help me practice my Dutch. I'm getting a really smooth UX with just a couple of lines of code. The whole Web Component is just ~150 LOC including CSS, HTML and JS.

I had a list of 1.8K words that I wanted to translate, I used same prompt. Both web. - Deepseek: Thought 5 seconds, processed, and returned a two columns csv. - ChatGPT: hallucinated the amounts of words, over-engineered a list of "solutions", contradicted itself. I gave up.

Is it me or Github is working terribly today? It doesn't list PRs nor releases and the UI is really buggy all the time.

My dream is to build software like these. And I think the building blocks for it are there: hypermedia, HTML and CSS with a pinch of Javascript. We can build a web that last. #TheTechWeWant

Opening the homepage of a "modern" website will transfer you 100mb of data. Considering that lots of low-cost mobile plans have 2GB of data a month, just reading the page will cost you 5% of your montlhy quota. Just crazy.

And always remember: "microservices responds more to an organizational structure than a software need." It is not a better architecture nor a better design pattern per se. Choose what works for you, what makes your software sustainable and easier to maintain in the long term #webdev #thetechwewant

While creating images, AI cannot differentiate between a plug and a socket. A sad short story with a punch line (1/5)

Hoy me encontré con el siguiente caso en #Python. Creo que no termino de entenderlo. El parámetro my_list se crea cuando se crea la función y por ende la referencia se mantiene entre distintas llamadas a la función? 🤔
