Thinking about how AI is currently used as deus ex machina by middle managers in every walk of life to support every hare-brained scheme they come up with.

Has Vimeo killed off a lot of old links to content?

Oh yes the great Finnish movies "The unnowon solider", "The man without a pist", and "The whïte Reinbeer".

Are there any funny movies without constant overacting and where the punchline isn't "and then the vicar's pants fell off"? That is, any funny movies that could actually make you laugh?

Am I right to understand that the US is banning Plato for being too frivolous about categories?

In our house, coffee also goes by the name "life's sole comfort".

I’m going to do a talk on goodified architecture. It’s like architecture but the outcome is good as opposed to bad.

Discussing abstracts for a conference and everyone loves these "the worst way to do X" talks but I'm like, aren't we all fully versed in that from our day jobs?

I just learned there's an AI code platform called Brokk, which translates to Hernia in Norwegian.

Developer, pointing to their giant brain: "But what if, hear me out, we made a good monolith instead of a bad one?"

For a while now I've been feeling that my talks and blog posts are gravitating towards the topic "I'm tired".

Going to do more to shelter myself from idiot radiation in 2026.

Clicking on a blog post to read, but upon being greeted by slop, I instead open my old copy of Hagakure and read "The Way of the Samurai is found in death."

Funny with all this talk about test-driven, behaviour-driven, domain-driven etc, when everyone knows that developers are driven by shame and vanity.

The "what else" argument is really something quite bizarre. The brain is a computer, because what else, a magic box?
Like a cat must be a horse, because what else, an elephant?

Fuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software.

Just fuck you. Fuck you all.

I can't remember the last time I was this angry.

LLMs midwifing blog posts that should never have been written because the author had nothing to say.

Spending the holidays processing just how betrayed I feel by the software and web industry

My career has been fifteen years of hope and promise—some fulfilled, some not—followed by a decade where the industry stopped pretending and just looted society

Being a bit angry about it is quite reasonable
