Day one of #NaNoWriMo. ~1300 words, a bit less the the average 1667 I need. It feels gps to have started though. Let’s see if I can increase the pace.

The next time someone tells you AI has resulted in massive job losses, share this article with them.

According to @theregister.com, Microsoft's latest SEC filing suggests OpenAI lost $11.5bn in Q3 2025
OpenAI reportedly did ~$4.3bn revenue in H1 2025, so perhaps $2-2.5bn/quarter. Would mean they're spending roughly 5-6x their revenue.

I genuinely can't believe people are boosting the "ruby core has taken ownership of bundler" thing like it's supposed to smooth everything over. all it does it reinforce the fact the bundler team had their project stolen with ruby central acting as a fence

In projects with hundreds of thousands of lines, it is easy to lose track of code, architecture and quality. Are we still on the right track, are we blocking ourselves with internal dependencies, or are we already stuck? Software is immaterial, we cannot see how it is doing.
