What does a PLC have in common with a Kubernetes controller? I wrote up my Cloud Native Aarhus talk: they run the same control loop. Plus the Star Trek story behind Borg, Omega and Project Seven. www.theocharis.dev/blog/the-onl...

The Only Reliable Way to Control Anything Is a Loop
Who keeps a factory's distributed system running: a PhD in distributed systems, or two electricians from the next town over? And why does Kubernetes work exactly like it?

As a follow up to the @localfirstconf.com we are doing a unofficial local-first meetup in Cologne on the 15th of October. Maybe this can be a regular event where we can exchange knowledge? The two talks are to get the conversations started. If you are interested in joining, feel free to contact me.

Biggest and best @localfirstconf.com yet, IMO! Surprising emergent themes this year: geopolitics and EU digital sovereignty, and strong conflicting emotions on LLM-assisted coding. More: adamwiggins.com/posts/politi...

Politics and emotion at Local-First Conf · Adam Wiggins
My reflections on Local-First Conf 2026. I was surprised by the angles of geopolitics, and charged emotion in response to our changing industry.

My @localfirstconf.com talk is online: how we ended up building local-first for factories, by necessity, not by choice. It ends with five requirements that stopped us adopting an existing sync engine. If we got any of them wrong, tell me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhca...

Granola is enterprise ready with sharing functionalities etc so good suited for a sales org, but doesn’t have speaker attribution and is CPU hungry (as there is a local model running)

Grill with docs is nice as well! Also super weird when Claude asks good questions, then realises it can respond it it themselves and then self corrects lol

This week I spoke at @localfirstconf.com in Berlin. A lot of the audience had Claude Code open, and still applauded every time when a speaker would say something LLM-critical on stage. I feel the same. So I wrote it down: www.theocharis.dev/blog/llm-cri...
