I like to point out that if all people do is copy paste from an AI, then I can advocate to replacing them with AI directly. Usually wakes people up.

Over the past few weeks I've grown tired of these super, all in one, agentic AI Skill plugins, MCP servers and whatnot that promise you the world. Of course, there is a world of vi…

No? You work on something and finish it. At most I have 2-3 feature branches open. If none are in review, I have commits in them with current work. Maybe I use the stash 2-3 times …

Inspired by https://tanvin-alt.github.io/behavioural-dashboard/ "Designing for the 100th use" I stumbled across this UX mock about living dashboards, and thought that it was a neat…

Interesting how posts like these seem to be catapulted to #1 spot so quickly

I've always felt it a bit hard to grasp how far news reach and all. Because I'm also a bit behind on python, I decided to build something from scratch. It's really simple: docker c…

Hey, I've built a simple Java library that tracks exceptions for you and deals with posting them to $PROJECT_PLANNING_TOOL. This way, you will automatically get tickets for excepti…

I've been working on and off on flagforge.dev I have always hated how we deal with feature flags; often times as a dev I implement it, but then business decides how the flags are u…

Great one, I've been hoping for a kagi alternative in the EU, will check it out :)

Not really. If pay decreases it's because you're not required anymore or less, which is contrary to what has been shown. IF educating and enabling juniors etc. is not handled corre…

Is this a bot account? Why is it green and spouting nonsense? There is nothing quoted in the previous comment

Skills are literally technical documentation for your project it seems. So now we can finally argue for time to write doc, just name it "AI enhancing skill definitions"

Yeah this seems too insane to be true. I understand that wifi signal strength etc. is heavily impacted by the contents of a room, but even so it seems farfetched that there is enou…

I've always wanted to know: Are people actually interested in more granular pricing options? I.e. give me 10x more tokens but miss me with that image generation, or give me more ba…

Definitely agree. I blame educational institutions (I know, they can't do much without enough freedom + budget) for not advocating enough to our democratic responsabilities. I do w…

We all wish that would be the real world - finally some good pressure to prioritise technical debt and issues. And some heads that would roll.

No counter point there. It's a real issue, and I don't know how to handle it. There is also an issue of the current world not being in a very investment heavy mood - unless you're …

Can sort of confirm that. Wiped out is maybe the wrong word - they are more heavily being off-shored right now. Whilst there is some very obvious evaluations going on of replacing …

I wonder why tho; humans by themselves should have an intrinsic interest in knowing how things work and behave, and being sure of it. Or maybe that's just influenced by my personal…

You are seriously underselling the potential impact of things happening has on planning. Any company worth their 2 cents has contingency plans ready for several situations - i.e. i…

Yes but it didn't help. Maybe it was more or less my complete prompt. Regardless, depending on your input, you can figure out the architecture of it. In theory, if you did the prev…

I hope nobody is really surprised by this. This is basic money-making-scheme; offer to open up standard for others, because you were the first, for some nice money bag. Make the ne…

I live in Switzerland and my girlfriend has been working as a doctor (surgery), and it has mostly to do with the politics that come with hierarchy. As in nearly all companies, hier…
