Everyone agrees that we're currently in a dotcom era-like AI bubble. People disagree what sort of bubble it is.

There are 3 stories one can tell about the dotcom crash: a startup story, a telecom story, and an accounting fraud story.

My take: it's giving Enron

We're launching a GoFundMe to cover legal fees to #FreeJavaScript trademark from Oracle.

We need to raise $200k to make full use of the discovery phase in the trademark cancelation petition. This is a critical step in protecting the JavaScript name for the whole community.

So, I'm putting it out there: I'm hoping someone might be able to point me toward open opportunities.

My tech experience is primarily in docs and front-end, but I also have a background in healthcare if that sparks any ideas.

I'm genuinely flexible on roles right now, so any leads are appreciated

GPT 5 is so imbalanced can’t even tell what’s the name of the thing that would allow me to put my moka pot on the fire stove.
Feels like talking to a brainless recruiter in general.

Cheap tricks and synthetic data is devolution.

this is interesting and balanced research and it confirms my priors so i'm sharing it (h/t @jenvalentino.bsky.social)

but also it makes sense — LLMs speed up the typing part, which often feels like the bulk of the job, but is actually dwarfed by the thinking part. and these things don't think good

We ran a randomized controlled trial to see how much AI coding tools speed up experienced open-source developers.

The results surprised us: Developers thought they were 20% faster with AI tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to AI than when they didn't.
